Encouragement needed on this hot and sunny Sunday...

[RoyalOakMaiden]

... to get my head down and finish this blasted essay.

It is my last one. My very last one. And I have already had an extension on it. And it is due ion tomorrow.

And I have a headache (from too much sun yesterday, I think) and stomach cramps (time of month) and my shoulders are also feeling the effects of too much sun yesterday. And it is HOT. And I would like to go and lie quietly in the shade somewhere, and chill.

But I have to write this essay. It is so boring. 2000 words on how language is used in the humanities. Yawn.

I don't wanna...

You can do it.

Nice glass of something cool and refreshing. Break it down into manageable chunks. 45 minutes of essay 15 mins break.

Think how you will feel when you have done it

(I finished my last essay for the year last week - there were tears, things were thrown but am so relieved to have come out the other side)

Not really much encouragement other than saying to write, write, write! It's hard to get in the zone to do it sometimes but just think how... free you will be by Tuesday. Not more essays, no more exams and no more studying!

I should by studying really but instead I have found everything else more important. Planting tomoato plants and looking at houses online even though we have no intention to move!

You can do it and then you can spend the days in the sun doing whatever you like!

The sun will have gone by tomorrow though, I bet.

But thank you for your words. I am trying. But reluctantly...

It must be lunchtime by now, though, surely?

You can do it!

I wrote my last one on Thursday when the sun was shining too x

You can do it. Have a break every so often, do some starjumps or lunges to wake you up!

I honestly feel your pain, that last essay is the hardest. Do you have minions DC or DP to bring you drinks and food?

Nah, my minions are poorly trained.

I have however just made myself and my badly trained minions a rather lovely chicken ceaser salad, which I am munching whilst mumsnetting writing my essay.

Done!!! I've finished my degree!!!

Woo hoo!!!

Well done!

I bet you feel great. Shattered, but great!

Congratulations! I hope you will be celebrating in style!
