| I think I could pull an all nighter, but I've never tried since I could be completely messed up the next day. Latest I've ever gone to bed was 3:30 AM when I was "studying" for a test or whatever |

the one and only time i did it was for a project on the state elections
this is literally the worst horror story i have from high school and i use it to scare freshmen into doing their homework when they have free time to do it
we were given this project a couple months in advance of the due date and had a few periodic checkpoints that we could reference to keep ourselves on pace to finish this thing in time
i of course did not follow the guidelines and literally waited until the very last possible day to start this project. it's due on monday, so here i am sunday morning sitting down, looking at the rubric, and realizing that i am up s### creek literally without a paddle because i haven't done jack s### on this project.
one of the few things i remember specifically about this assignment was that i spent about 2 hours photoshopping the 2 gubernatorial candidates' faces onto a fight screen from mortal kombat. then i found the mortal combat font and used it to write "POLITICAL KOMBAT," which became the theme for my project. that was the biggest waste of time on an important project that i've ever pulled in my life. the worst part was that i had an image of how sick it was going in, and didn't realize until later that i could've slept that night had i not spent so much time on the stupid cover photo.
essentially we had to create a full report on the campaign, find stories from various points in time that presented various viewpoints on the candidates. the main target was the race for governor, but there were a couple smaller elections that you were supposed to cover as well. i honestly don't remember much about how i did it, but i know that this project took over 12 hours and i worked in my office like it was a sweatshop the whole day.
all in all i think my page count was about 70+ pages, maybe over 100.
i believe i finished around 5 am, my alarm went off at 6, there was no point in sleeping
turned it in on monday, took my C-, and went on with my life |

i have a hazy memory of just how many pages it was
i know it was at least 70 because i distinctly remember being irritated that the number 76 looked strange because of the font that i was using where 7 went below the line by a few pixels, but it could have easily been over 100
i will try to find the project |

alright i found about 30 pages of pure typing
adding in the articles which were each several pages long probably brings the total to around 80 |

| 30 pages itself sounds ridiculous, most I've ever written for school was probably 11 pages or so for an essay. Not to mention in one day lol |
