Of course my computer chooses today to decide to run out of ink. The day that I need to turn in the largest paper of my undergraduate career.

I need a drink.

Well, results section is finally done. Unfortunately, the tables and graphs take up more pages than actual writing. I don't think that is the way it should be ( Read more... )

Unfortunately, my ability to do so has disappeared. Where has that talent gone? What is the use of majoring in Poli Sci if you leave without being able to bullshit?

Okay, let's get down to business here. What sentance comes next? This is so painful.

How come a thesis being due on Friday is not enough pressure to get me off my ass and really get down to work on it? Just how worse does it need to be. I sit in front of my computer and can't do anything. I have all of the information, I just can't seem to take the next step of explaining it in a cohesive fashion ( Read more... )

So much for thinking I could get a paper done in a reasonable amount of time. I got the first page done in a decent amount of time but then of course I stopped for dinner and lost the momentum ( Read more... )

God this class is stupid. The prof basically wants an extended summary of these three articles in the book, which is stupid in itself, but made even more stupid by the fact that there are a couple pages in the beginning of the section that do just that. Such a waste of my time. Very glad I'm taking this one pass/fail ( Read more... )

I'm in the process of applying to grad school and find out that my gre scores are below the average score for the university of maryland. They also are being super stubborn in sending me an application so I'm filling out the first part online and hopefully they will send me the rest soon. For the whole written statement part they have two essays ( Read more... )

Still working on stupid paper. This one is about STDs in America and Sub-Saharan Africa. And I turn on MTV for background noise and guess what's on? A little documentary type thing on STDs. I can't escape it! And my teacher wants us to put everything we read in researching the paper in the bibliography. Does that mean I also have to include ( Read more... )

So I'm trying really hard to get this paper done for my Congress class (cause if I get it done this weekend, I can spend some time with Dan on Tuesday. So I have this incentive). But I'm having a hard time getting going. And I think I know why: the assignment.

Your assignment is to report on the roles, activities, voting record, and interest ( Read more... )

There was a part in my paper where I had to talk about someone bringing up the issue of flag-burning out of nowhere and I so wanted to use that quote.

Anyway, I am extremely strange in the way I write papers. Here's the way the one I had to write for last night went starting with Monday night (WARNING: do not try this at home!):

10:00 pm - sit ( Read more... )
