Lit essay... done.
That just leaves... history[0].
I've got a history test on Tuesday, same day the essay is due.
Now see, for this essay, Mr. Sokolewicz wants us to read The Five People You Meet in Heaven by Mitch Albom - because the essay is going to be about the book.
Now, this book, apparently, is very short. (Although, had I started it earlier, it might have taken a while to read, due to how awful it's supposed to be. (This was the case for JT.) (And it really is written badly, at the very least - I've read parts of it.)) I've not started on it, but the time it takes to read it should not be a problem.
The problem is obtaining it.
See, originally I figured I would get a copy from someone else after they'd finished reading it. It didn't occur to me until *this morning* that they're going to still need it even after they've finished because they'll need it to write the essay. Now I have to go get one myself.
Where from, though? The library? Looking on BCCLS, I find that there are 197 copies of this book in the system - 12 of which are available. None of which are in Glen Rock, Fair Lawn, or Ridgewood[3]. Now I'm not going to go ordering it from another library, clearly there's no time for that. Nor am I going to go to another library and actually pick it up, because my mom would find out and then she'd yell at me for having procrastinated this.
So, what am I to do?
Well, in the meantime, I'll study for the history test.

[0]Hey, whatever happened to that Latin project? *shrugs* Well, if we never have to actually present, that's fine by me.
[3]Because not only do we all have to do an essay on this book, it also happens to be a bestseller.
