Today, I realized I forgot to write a 5000 word essay for my English class. I tried to be calm since I had until midnight to finish, and it was only 8pm. I typed for three hours straight,and finished the assignment. I read over the instruction again, and realized it only had to be 500 words. FML

OH wow.... maybe they'll think you're an overachiever. You'll pass this class. :P

if the topic is simple enough to be covered in 500 words, what else did you write about?

OWNED!! i got downgraded for writing too much :( hopefully they will understand??

so.... just do it again... 500 words take like 10 minutes -_- and hand in the 5k for extra credit

If I were the prof (or more likely, the grad student flunky) who had to grade that shit, I'd read the first 500 words and base my grade on that. It would probably be an F, because to bloat it up to 5,000 words, I'll bet the first 500 are a rambling, nonsensical intro. I'd put a big red line at the 500 word mark and write, "Here's how far I got, you careless prick."

Haha dude that's not hard, I type 102 words a minute, I am still in high school, so um... yeah that assignment would take me about 1:30, if I don't procrastinate (of course adding in the rest times) Sorry I had to brag... sooooooo nerdy eh?

of course you're not affording any time to actually think about what you're writing, which should be the most important part...

at 250 words per page, a 5000 word essay would be 20 pages long. Did you write all that in 3 hours?

haha bet you felt really smart after that one
