I am so stressed out right now.
I have to write a HUGE report in comp repair due Friday and I'm almost halfway done. And I have to create a HTML menu for my portfolio full of my assignments in multimedia as well as get three more assignments done in comp repair. The two classes I have to do work in are both colledge level so that puts another load of expectation on me.
The HUGE report is rewriting my comp repar book which is a footlong and about 2-3 inches thick
Any advice for dealing with this will be welcome.

In all honesty, I find the best way to beat that sort of stress is to just hunker down and start the work. Once I start making tangible progress, I feel much better about my ability to finish the assignment.

 Thou, because I am wroth, be not dismayed, for I shall win the strife, whoever circle round within for the defence. This their insolence is not new, for of old they used it at a less secret gate, which still is found without a bolt. Above it thou didst see the dead inscription; and already on this side of it
descends the steep, passing without escort through the circles,
One such that by him the city shall be opened to us. |

Kubo's right, if you sit around stressing out about it the situation will start growing in your mind and pretty soon it will seem hopeless. If you put your head down and barrel through ( DO A BARREL ROLL! ) pretty soon you'll notice you've made some progress and feel better about what you still have to complete.

Yep, sadly there's no real cure for that kind of stress except sucking it up and doing the work. It'll feel awesome once you're done, if that's any help at all right now.

This reminds me, I have to clean my bathroom before the mushroom growing in the shower becomes self aware and tries to eat my foot.

I solve mine through excessive beating off.
Then again, I'm lonely.

I 100% agree here, just do it. Finish the report to the very best of your ability and even go above and beyond if you can. Just remember we all tend to think what we just wrote is the best ever...it is not. Get it written and read your own report and even get your friends/family to read it too, they may give you some advice on your spelling, grammar and wording.

Sounds like a day of work for me.
Just use a table for the HTML and put regular links inside each TD.
As for rewriting the computer repair book... that doesn't sound like a normal task. Something tells me you aren't explaining it well.
Lastly, how the fuck can you take college level classes when you can't even spell college?
