    I'm also busy with exams...

    You should turn off your computer, pull out the powercord, and move to another room.

    Too many distractions will keep you from your work! :P

    I have trouble with individual details, but the big picture is usually easy if you write up a quick outline first.

    My essays never flow for me I'm always stalled for at least 7 minutes whenever I'm in the middle of one because I always get distracted by my own damn thoughts (mostly boys :rolleyes2) and plus I'm not very good at English even though I'm a B average speaker and apparently good at writing and it's the only damn language I know. Damn literature!

    I never had problems with essays since I started college. In high school, though, they asked for the most impossible things to write about. Usually, I like planning before I actually write. Just get a scrap piece of paper and write down points that you would want to discuss in your essay. It works for me.

    Yeah..I hate essays and exams in general, even though I studied English Lit at A-Level and had loads of them >_< I got worse though and just got really sick of essays after that. Web design = no essays. Yay!

    yep essays suck, espcially when you have to write an essay for your exam and you have a mind-block. What sometimes works for me is eat a banana! no joke, just eat a banana or any type of fruit and your mind will hopefully clear up
