Taking a break...

I'm taking a break from writing a paper for my Philosophy class. Although it is very easy, I always find myself stressing over the quality of my work. I write and re-write a paper about 3 times (not actually keeping track of what I delete or move around- just a ball park number)

I know I'm not the first person to feel like this, nor the last, but it always makes me wonder why I stress so much over a three page paper on something that I understand and can probably talk hours on.
In the end, I get an A. But, how many A's will make it okay that I am a nervous wreck when it comes to an essay that after college won't mean much? 18243975310498?

I don't plan to write that many papers for class credit.
