I did 3, the easy ones but nowhere did it say be a martyr lillie and do the sodding difficult ones. Also Id like to apologise to my poor internet search history for the content of my latest googling choice highlights include the appearance of genital herpes.
And now to essay, though ceeb. Cant decide if I should edit or research more.

That sounds manageable cat, does it help to set aside an hour or two each day where you will definitely do work?
Im now at 2,366 words though I cant think of the single solitary word I need right now for the sentence to make sense and its meant Ive ground to a halt.
I now have 1814 beautiful, edited, ready to go words. With one paragraph left to edit and 1 main area left to research. Then see whats going on with the word count/add more. Then a conclusion. Then references. Then boom. Done.
Thanks guys for the advice...There are many disturbing scenes and it's very had to read. I have an issue where it's all or nothing. I either read it completely or I don't....I can't explain why it has to be like this, and I've gotten in trouble for this kind of thing before.
Cat, thank you :) If you can find them, that would be lovely, but it's OK if you can't. Good luck on your work. If I'm not wrong, you had a good idea for your symposium?
I mustered the concentration to finish Part I. Reading out loud helps. Though it's taking forever. I think I'm going to have to stay up tonight.

Cat, I agree with Lillie and would suggest doing an hour or two each day.[/QUOTE]
Thanks, it needs to be read for wednesday though. So need to do it tomorrow. And naturally I'm really busy tomorrow which doesn't help matters at all. Although, sometimes I do focus better when I have to run around.
I was going to do some tonight, but there was a bit of drama at Beaver scouts tonight so was dealing with the fallout from that, all sorted now though.

I had a few texts that I couldn't read at uni because they were triggering to me, so I just read wikipedia/sparknotes/summaries rather than reading the whole text. I know it isn't ideal, but it kind of worked for me.
Yeah, I'm doing it on how Romantic/Victorian poets took the format of the epic poem and used it to travel through a lifetime than a journey.
It's your choice really, Lucy.
If being a perfectionist doesn't work you can either accept the imperfect or continue to to deal with the issues it causes.
I get you and I've struggled with similar situations before and sometimes still do. But it's hard to suggest anything when you are unwilling to do it any other way.
Cat, I guess all you can do is to just sit down and do it? Sometimes that is all that can be done and I have had to go with that approach a lot.
Glad the dramaz got sorted!
Got home two hours ago.
Boyfriend is asleep so I'm playing a computer game.
IMMMM BOOOORED. Ive looked at thousands of handbags and the ones I like cost money that even somewhat impulsive lillie wont spend :( even contemplating uni work because of the boredom.
I know, Lana. You guys have been very helpful and comforting, and I know I should try to adjust, but if I don't do things this way, it'll scream in my head. I realise I probably sound very irrational. I'm sorry.
Thank you Lillie.
Cat, you are so right about it sometimes being easy to focus when running around and buing busy. Adrenaline, I presume. Also, thanks. Your symposium topic sounds brilliant!!
ETA: Lana, also curious as to what game you're playing XD
Also, I didn't take my pills and I am too anxious because of tomorrow.
Just like a game for my laptop, a point and click type of game.
Not a big gamer and not good with anything too sophisticated.
The way I see it, trying to do things perfect all the time sets you up for failure and screaming in your head will just be louder either way.
It's not an issue you will resolve tonight though.
Just can't do games think require decent hand to eye coordination or quick reaction time. Doing reasonably well with strategy games and finding items /spot the difference games.
I've been playing for so long(my amaizng uncle got me a PS2 when I was a kid), I have a lot of practice with the hand-to-eye coordination XD Strategy games are awesome, but they require a level of patience I don't have!
I am procrastinating as I am panicked about life and trying to ignore thoughts. I shall try reading a bit more after I'm done with my current procrastinating activity - Fun and Destractions Forum.
My boyfriend's the same, pretty much started gaming before reading or writing. I've been getting into gaming a little more because of him, I just often find it frustrating to suck so badly at something.
I hope you make some progress soon.
You planning to sleep at all?
