Math Project Frenzy

Today was a relatively calm day. I spent the afternoon on my horse-back riding lesson and my swimming practice. I came home a little tired and ready to go to sleep, but I decided to check the computer to see if there was anything new. That day I had finished part of a math project, which I sent to my friend so she would check it. I didn't think about it much, since I had seen a note that the project was due on the 6th of March. Suddenly, when I look at my mail, I see an emergency mail form her . I went on my messenger account and found my friend had left a message. The rough draft was due for tomorrow!! Every part of the project was due for the next day so she could tell us what to fix. I don{t have a procrastinating nature. I usually have papers, homework and projects ready with some time before the due date. The problem this time was that nobody warned us! The teacher had been sick for at least three days, and she hadn't written anything on the announcement page until about two hours ago. The worst was that she actually expects us to have everything ready, even without any warning. Maybe she thinks we are psychic or something. Anyway, there was no time to whine about it now (Maybe later). We had to get everything done and fast! Fortunately, we were all ready and connected by a blessed program called messenger, we were able to communicate and get everything together. I am quite impressed on our work. In a matter of hours (1 or 2) we were able to get everything done. Internet technology baffles me more each time. Without the MSN or web mail, it would have been impossible to get anything done at all (Without Internet, we wouldn't have found out the project was due). All I'm glad for is we actually got the necessary parts done, even if it is not entirely correct. It is a rough draft after all, and she wants it to correct our mistakes anyway. It seems she will have a lot of fun with our project (I hope she doesn't fail us!)
