Redrafting - Day 5
I have managed to slot the 'Pleasure Principle' in (pun fully intended) and now I am trying to read up some Marxist Theory (OWL Purdue has come into its own - but I am reading Rivkin and Ryan at the moment). I am a bit worried about the time frame; after this, I have four essays to turn round, one of them being TH2 (Jane Eyre/Feminist Theory), then IN3 which is a sticky one about politics. Might have to totally rethink that one. Plus the portfolio work. Not a lot needed for Transactional Writing, minor tweaks at most.
Creative Writing is going to be tougher as although my pieces are ready, the observation writing is still in its infancy. The days left have sunk into single digits and I am worried that I won't make it. I have a LOT to do. Anyway, onward with the Marxist Theory reading :-/

I laughingly said I wanted a simplistic version of Marx Theory, which is a bit of a joke really considering the subject. I have found a version and it is on bloody wiki and I can't use it (academic British references only). Try to find off shoots and you have to wade through everything. From what I can tell, it is about analysing the base the superstructure and the power relation. Fascinating, but I have only got nine days, guys.

I have had an incredible stroke of luck, via a bone fide British AS/A2 Sociology page. I feel truly blessed - hope it reaps the right rewards. I must admit that this gives me a bit of a headache as I did Sociology at 'O' Level and I remember the divisions of the Proletariat and the Bourgeois etc., but this is at a far higher level than I remember. I do understand a lot of it, because I have read up on it since, but even so - it is about whether I can do this as part of a Level 4 English essay.
*sigh* my brain hurts :-/

Ok, my aim now is to shave off 193 words without losing something critical from the essay. Here goes :-)

I've done it !!!! Hurrah !!! No more Huxley for the foreseeable future - yeehaaa!!!
