Due 20th

Busy weekend, busy next weekend

Does this sound familiar?

Bugger

You still have some time: maybe just do a bit every day?

I'm roasting pork loin and MNetting. I should be doing the essay as DP took DD out to meet some friends of his Hmm I find it hard to focus, though, when I know I've only got an hour iyswim.

Prolesworth, did you get your tma back yet?

KatyMac · 12/12/2010 11:41

Shouldn't have gone dancing last night

Can I join you in the countdown? Am still doing mine, but deadline is tomorrow! Must keep going, and get off Mumsnet, as now have less than 24 hours......have got a brief extension, but don't want to use it as it will just drag the agony of this TMA on even longer and I want it over so I can start thinking about Christmas!!

KatyMac · 12/12/2010 12:40

Off to buy my mums Christmas tree, then go to the Christmas fair

OP posts:
KatyMac · 12/12/2010 14:57

I'm back - now for lunch

How's it going tiredofchallenge?

OP posts:
tiredofchallenge · 12/12/2010 15:30

Not that great - had to stop to take dd to her sport, grab some shopping and have to go back out to collect in a bit. Oh, and have decided to completely change the focus of the TMA as the approach I'd chosen just wasn't working!

How was the fair?

KatyMac · 12/12/2010 16:31

Me neither

So tired

Well, finally submitted at 3.30am. Managed to get up to the right number of words, but don't think they're any good. Oh well, at least I have a few days before I need to start tackling the next one (am foolishly doing 2 modules at the moment!).

KatyMac · 13/12/2010 12:37

Oh good

Now about mine......

OP posts:
loflo · 13/12/2010 19:24

Feel your pain Katy - I submitted mine yesterday - doing a postgrad and haven't written an essay for 17 years. That TMA took nearly as long....... Hope it's nearly done!

KatyMac · 13/12/2010 20:49

Erm not really no

& I am too tired now

OP posts:
loflo · 13/12/2010 21:35

Can we help? Is it about something exciting Wink

KatyMac · 13/12/2010 21:44

Nah

Work based practise

Boring - I took a supposedly easy option because my last course was a bugger but fascinating; & it's very hard & boring

loflo · 13/12/2010 22:37

Ah ok - DH had to literally stand over me and make me type. And I reverted to teenage strops and refused to do my homework! Got there eventually. But next year its cake decorating!

KatyMac · 14/12/2010 07:49

What did you do this time then (fantasises about cake decorating)

loflo · 14/12/2010 09:28
