I'm not very good at writing essays. I dislike the whole process. Thankfully I am finished with full-time education and never have to write another essay in my life if I don't want to.
One year, while I was still in full-time education (I think it was university rather than school) I had to write two or three essays over the Christmas holiday. Obviously I left everything to the last minute and ended up having to stay up late into the night before term started to write the damn things (my own fault, I know).
Anyway, as well as being an unenthusiastic essay writer, I was also a slow essay writer. I would check the word count after every paragraph (sometimes every sentence) in the hope that I may have miraculously reached the word limit all of a sudden. While I stayed up late and plodded my way through these particular essays, I decided to treat myself after every few hundred words by listening to this song.
Admittedly it's probably more suitable to be listening to it blasting from a car stereo with the windows down as you drive around the coast of somewhere sunny, rather than in your bedroom at 1 o'clock in the morning at a volume which won't wake up the rest of the house. But I still liked it.
I knew that Bells, Burke and I left essays to the last minute, but I am honestly surprised at you Groves! You are human after all...
ReplyDeleteThink it was probably first year. I learnt my lesson after that ;)
DeleteI can see why that would get you going!I wrote my uni thesis over 3 nights whilst hyped on coffee and rosemary oil. Don't miss it at all!!!

Not a good feeling is it?
DeleteThe joys of procrastination! :-) I'd never heard the song before, thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteNo probs. I found it on a compilation CD :)

DeleteAh, essay writing... I was never a fan either and I don't think I ever started any assignments until the day before they were due--no matter how many times I said I wouldn't. One time I even started it 2 hours before it was due. Not something I'd recommend ;)
ReplyDeleteEeek! You're made of stronger stuff than I am to leave it that late!
DeleteI’m not that much of a online reader to be honest but your blogs really
