Mmmtea, you lifesaver, you...

I must definitely remember tea, not only as a restorative draught but as a stimulant. I actually feel nearly alive enough to finish my essay. Considering it's currently slightly over the word limit - I know, I didn't believe it either! - and still lacking a conclusion, this may either be a hugely tricky task or the simplest thing in the world. I think I shall attempt a conclusion now, and worry about editing it when I wake. I don't trust anything I write at this time of night to make the slightest sense - it so often doesn't - so it's absolutely no use trying to do any crucial editing at this stage.

Anyway, I look at it like this. This is likely one of the worst essays I've written in a year - except perhaps that one for Mrs. Haywood which got an E (for largely the same reason as I imagine this one will fail - see early rants for details)- but as long as something gets handed in, it really shouldn't matter tooooooo much, as long as I do a better job on the next one. The highest mark of the two is the one that gets counted. And in any case, the coursework is only 20% of the final grade. And I only have to pass. Alright, passing wouldn't really be good enough for me, certainly not good enough for what I'm capable of, but really. It would do. I'll just have to make sure I don't fuck up the next essay or the exam. If necessary, this one can go in unedited and in-concluded, if needs be; although, that would put me to shame. Really don't want to do that.

Huh... this was just going to be a quick note about how much I love tea and lookie what happened. Sure, now I just can't stop typing... It's funny, bloody thing, is life.

Anyway, 'night all!

tea, essay, odyssey, classics
