Despite the lack of books, I appear to have done all but 600 words of the commentary, hurrah! And I still have... well, most of my points to make. It really is impossible to write 2000 words of commentary about 3000 words of poetry and say everything that needs saying. And it's amusing me that writing 1000 words of commentary has taken me a day, with much procrastination and elbow-restage, whereas writing 1000 words of poetry took me more than a week (at its quickest; 3 months at its slowest, depending on which 1000 words you count), with cheating and using old stuff when I ran out of ideas. It's ridiculous, whichever way you look at it. And speaking of ridiculous, there's still the fun of the annotated bibliography to go. I'm really looking forward to this being over and handed in on Monday. Then I can legitimately write the West Wing fanfic that decided to take over my brain last night (blame
strandedinaber for addicting me to it and Amy for persuading me to get Season 7 out of the library and re-watch it). Well, that and do my last essay. Unfortunately, the problem with looking up your marks on the Cascade system to work out what you might get for your degree, and realising that you'd have to get halfway to failing the last two assignments to not get a first (I really don't know how that happened) is that you tend to develop a rather laissez-faire attitude to work...
