11/05/2006: "Ready to puke citations"
Song of the Day: Ace of Base vs. Mariah Carey - All That She Wants Is to Belong Together
For those who are keeping track, I am at 18.5 pages, and plan to stop at 20 and ask the prof to give some guidance on what to focus on for the remaining 5 pages. Given that I'm ready to start puking citations, I'd be totally willing to stop now, but 20 out of 25 seems to match "Try to get as close as you can" much more than 18.5 does.
If I ever had to write another research paper, I'd totally start on it earlier. The fact of the matter remains, however, that in 6 months, I WILL BE DONE WITH SCHOOL FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER. Not that I'm excited or anything.
In the "proof that Brooke really is blond under all that red dye" category, I spent months wishing that iTunes offered a way to sort songs by the date they were added. Tonight, I discover after having a Flash Of Brilliance, that there is, in fact, a way to do it. Okay, maybe a flash of delayed brilliance. I don't really mind when my brilliance flashes, as long as it does at some point.
