Deadline 25th April, here we go... Me too! I started it today. haha. What's your deal? I've got 10k words to write by Friday...it's looking tight haha I have until 4pm on Thursday 26th, but I've got to get it done by late afternoon on Wednesday 25th. Basically, mines a 'mixed media' so I can use a Practical project as the main body. I have the option of a 20/80%, 50/50% or 80/20% Theory/Practice split. Best way I can show it is in a nice (PROCRASTINATION) table: | 20/80% | 50/50% | 80/20% | | Intro | 320 Words | 800 Words | 1,280 Words | | Lit Review | 640 Words | 1,600 Words | 2,560 Words | | Practical Research | 6,400 Words Equiv' | 4,000 Words Equiv' | 1,600 Words Equiv' | | Reflection | 640 Words | 1,600 Words | 2,560 Words | | Bibliography | As Appropriate | As Appropriate | As Appropriate | | TOTAL | 8,000 Words + Bib | 8,000 Words + Bib | 8,000 Words + Bib | I was aiming for 50/50%, but I've written a 1,300 word Intro...

So it seems students have taken over the night shift. I guess it's that time of year.
At least you guys have given me some hope since I still have 2 weeks to write 8000 words.
ETA: What's the best music for inspiring you to write?

I've got Capital FM London on in my earphones. Since 1am when the Uni library closed I've consumed a can of Pepsi Max, 4 mugs of strong, sugary coffee and a pint of water, I need to pee for the 3rd time in 40mins.

Interesting question -tonights inspirational music is a mixture of prince's the hits 1&2 mixed in with Vivaldi's four seasons. Don't ask!! And library closed? Pah, twenty four hour opening is where it's at!

We get turfed out at 1am. Think I work better at night when there's nobody about and it's dark outside the window. One major downside to the library, being made almost entirely out of glass, I can see everything, so many things to look at, so many things to watch. Some people booked a Study Pod to make use of the HD TVs to watch the football last night...  Then today was spent trying to find me name on on this list...

Oh, and the night before that I got shut in the moving bookshelves. Someone moved them whilst I was at the far end, motion sensors obviously didn't see me, had to duck in the gap between a static shelf as two moving ones closed in on either side. One side was too tight to even get my hand down, this was my plea for help...

Cool library! So much potential for distraction though, in the summer months especially I'm struggling as it is and it's still firmly "dress as if it's freezing cold" weather at the moment  Merlin, I'm a student in London and know it quite well, I'll have a watch tomorrow but I'm off home and to bed now, night chaps!  Eta: we've got those moving shelves, endless potential for terrifying freshers!!

Oh lordy, the week before Easter Break, really warm and sunny in East Kent, I had a seat right next to a glass wall looking up the stairs.  Bouncy boobies coming down, nice legs and bums going up.

Come on then slackers, I've been up since just before 8am on Thursday, the Uni Library has closed on me twice in this (for me) very, very long day. (pushing 42 hours) It's time to hit the hay. G'night.

Why do students always ALWAYS leave it really late to write dissertations. Papers or assignments?
One of life's mysteries ...
