Stress!

!!!! how do i deal with it.

I don’t know if i stress over things that are worth it or do i make mountains out of mole hills.
Like rite now im so stressed about writing an english paper over a specific non english vernacular(ex. ebonics, creole, spanglish etc.). I always do this and want to give up …sometimes i do.

Have you ever tried massage therapy? seriously, it works wonders. If that’s not for you, try finding something that you enjoy that you can take time to do every day.
example meditation, exercise, writing about something that has nothing to do with school, call a friend. Do something to take your mind off of what is making you stressful. Calm your sympathetic nervous system! its way too overactive right now!

Take a quick walk around the block while you organize your thoughts. Read the assignment before you go. Then when you return get straight to it.

Well, an outline is definitely a good start. Do you have an introduction paragraph yet? And how long does your 1st draft have to be? Mine were always MAD short, but some teachers make a minimum.

As far as a thesis and supporting statements?
