Oooh, bad wombat. Baaad wombat. Wanna spanking?

Don't feel to bad lady wombat. I was meant to move stuff and mark assignments this weekend. Now its sunday morning, and all I've managed is gaming and posting on enworld

Hello, no. I want to go to sleep.

I just opened Word. Step in the right direction.

...all I've managed is gaming and posting on enworld

Sounds like a productive weekend to me.

Hey Arwink, what's up?

Do you reckon it's possible to do a 5,000 word research project in 7 days?

Hey Arwink, what's up?

Not a lot. Getting frustrated with my parents mac, poking around the house trying to remember where stuff goes.

Do you reckon it's possible to do a 5,000 word research project in 7 days?

I usually budget two, at most. 7 Days is for assignments 10 000 words and longer

Of course, this says little about the quality of the finished assignment...

I'm terrified I'm not going to get any of it done. Five assignments to be in and an exam to be taken (God only knows what I'm supposed to be revising, never mind when) before June 5th.

Help me!!!!

Help me!!!!

Step one: Calm down. Have a cup of tea. Sit and think reasonably and logically about what needs to be done. Stress is the mind-killer, and freaking out about workload often means things take twice as long as they need to.

Step two: Log out of enworld. Rip the modem out of the wall. give it to someone else until the assignments are done.

Step three: Write the assignments. You'll be amazed how easy things get once step three is started

 

[Dungannon]

I'm thinking step two is gonna be the hardest one to do here.
