Sigh... I remember a math teacher telling me that I couldn't write. Really? At the time I was working as a professional writer and was a reporter for o local paper. Sure glad my bosses didn't agree with her.

Every once in a while, there is a subject that trips you up. that's what happened. I think you are brilliant, no matter what.

For this section, the stress has been unbelievable. I have felt the following: exasperation, moments-of-clarity followed by brain-fog, exhaustion, being close to weeping. Muteness, followed by absolute blankness, flurry of writing, copy/paste/backstep/lose it - urrrggghhhhhh!!!!

Thank you SG68 - sometimes it is nice to hear others who KNOW what it's like :-)

I so know what it's like and all the stress that goes with it. Whenever someone asks if I'm thinking about going back to school, I remember my last year and the last paper I had to deliver. It was nearly enough to break my spirit - I couldn't imagine what it would have been like to not have loved the topic.

Take your grade and be free of it.

This is me from days on from here. So - how did it go? I'm sure the Emperor had some splended clothes and you got flying marks!

It doesn't help with the stress without having a sort of writing 'chum' with whom you can work,chat,natter,criticise etc.... discuss it all cos that lets out the steam.

Hope it all went surprisingly well... you deserve it.

I am about to hand the final paper in on this module - I won't find out til July 9th. I was warned that it would be a lower mark than I usually get - right now, I will be happy with a pass, to be honest with you.
