Assignment Trouble

beanstalk_simsLast night, I sat down to try and make sense of my research proposal assignment. I knew WHAT I was studying, and HOW - thanks to a discussion with Esme, and then with one of my tutors - and I had a structured plan for how to write it all...
But I just couldn't work it out. I kept struggling and getting stuck, and that got me wound up and stressed out, so I then had even less chance of deciphering how to do this assignment, and I eventually phoned my classmates, who were having the same trouble, and we all decided just to go to class today with what little we had, and demand more help.
Now that seemed like the perfect solution, only my Dad phoned in the middle of it all. And when I confessed that I was struggling, he told me "Well, if you're struggling at this stage, maybe you need to reconsider university,"
Never mind the fact this is the first EVER research proposal I've ever had to write. Well, I promptly burst into tears at my Dad's words, while he tried to convince me that a life in retail is not that bad. I know it's not, but it's not what I want.
So I was feeling completely and utterly defeated last night, and I've woken up this morning with a banging headache, and I've got to try and sort this assignment out today. I guess I just feel really crap and felt like getting it off my chest or something. :/
