of this coursework. In about 10 hours. I need to write something like 1000 words for tomorrow, sorry, that should be this morning. It's just so fucking boring and there is pretty much nothing to say on the subject.

As can be seen from the fact that I'm here whining about it, instead of actually doing it. And that I've created three vampire pictures of AHers in that time.

All right. Take 15 minutes to write an outline, and then post it here. Then write the introduction, the conclusion, and fill in the blanks. Break it down, my friend, and tackle each piece, one by one, bit by bit. You've written 1000 words in your sleep. You can do this.

Now, go.

Go.

You're good, LJ! :rose:

I would have contributed to his delinquency... Very sorry! :(
 
Oooh!

Vampire me, please?

No, no, wait.

Um, get back to work this instant! :cool:

Amen. Small, managable goals.

and use words like 'the' and 'furthermore' a whole bunch of times


And be sure to include the crucial first sentence of all student essays:

"Throughout time, X has been an important issue present in society."

It's most informative, not to mention rivetting.

Also, why say "X causes Y" when you could say "In my opinion, it mostly appears that X could basically be said to be the cause of Y"? After all, those professors just specified a number of words, not - heaven forfend - ideas.

I helped my sister with her BA paper last year, and was horrified to see page after page of "In this paper, I will discuss...I will then show how...In this section, I will provide..."

This was the proper format, apparently, but you're 10 pages into the paper and nothing at all has been shown, proven, posed, hypethesized, dreary, drudge, blah. The ideas get crushed by the format.

Unfortunately, it's computing. No style, no substance, no real format. bloody course.

Seems I have to call in the reinforcements to whip you into shape, beat you into submission, tie you down, and force you to complete your assignment.


Yoohooo! Earl in need of discipline over here!

Once it's done, I'm going to bed. Or going to lectures, whichever comes first.

Don't worry, Yui darling, Earl is a naughty slut, and he'll get punished for playing on Lit instead of doing his homework. Patience, my pets...
