    I hear you bruddah!

    A bit disappointed... I was rambling on a good bit and got caught up in the writing. I thought "hmmm, musta wrote about 800 words there"

    Only 500 :( Still, it's progress! I reckon I'll move onto the next section (the theme), and flesh out the rest at the end if needs be.

    Don't worry MNG, the Europe essays will be alot easier than Viking! Sure you've been studyin that shoite since primary school :pac:

    I hope so but my brain is so fried. Hitler was the bad guy right? :D

    Oh well I'm going to get cracking. It's cool there's so many of us in the same boat. A viking boat on the way to hell...

    Ive been drinking caffeine all night and have been doing pushups to gain inspiration but I never even thought of having a shower. it seems so obvious now. Cheers for giving me the idea, you're a lifesaver. I'm going to have one right now.

    And Horsey was never heard from again... Who'd have thunk you could drown in a shower?

    Although I'm stealing your pushup plan! C'mon Passive, Gunnar could do 700 pushups in his sleep! He would have beaten this essay to a pulp hours ago!

    I've done my first question on the take-home exam and fell just short of 1,000 words. I'm not going to bother trying to raise it higher because what I've written is just about understandable and if I wafle any more it will be total BS.

    Quality over quantity I hope. :eek:

    the shower idea worked pretty well although its taking a lot of effort to get back writing. all the distractions I was doing so well to ignore earlier are proving too tempting to avoid now

    2500 words, not including Bibliography, still have a large paragraph and a conclusion to go. :D. It needs quite a bit of revision and editting, but the body is there, the referencing is sound and the bibliography is sitting and ready to be pasted.

    And my mammy is making porridge and tea. Awesome! Oooh, I'm so excited about the delirious and horrific day of madness and doom ahead of me, as I face up to the library and the 4 English deadlines that await the other side of this weekend...

    None to go!

    Pretty much finished with the take-home exam now me thinks. I'm just shy of 2,000 words altogether. I doubt I'll add too much to it. Don't want to dilute the overall excellence. :rolleyes:

    What a f*cking night. I never want to go through that again. One assignment at the last minute is bad enough but two is an ordeal.

    Anyone know how many copies we need for the take-home exam? I think I'll print two off anyway to be safe.
