anyone studying this morning and wants to do motivstional check ins?

[BBBee]

oui?

Yes, grand idea! I am the only one in the library this morning, nobody making me feel guilty!

okay - I have an assignment to write - I am a 1000 words in and I have the next tricky 2000 I am hoping to complete today - shall we meet back at 10.45 with a count count update?

what are you going to do?

(no more mumsnetting!)

Ok, I am starting essay number 2 of the Easter hols so gathering my research together and attempting to start getting some words down. See you in an hour!

great - okay look forward to seeing how you have got on.

hi, I'm trying to write 1 of 4 essays this morning, well at least add to what i have already started! i have 277 words of 2500
can i join you?

I need to be ploughing through my reading in advance of impending assignment.. but I think housework will prevail. I am living in a shit pit

Think we should have this thread running daily though.. to motivate each other.

Well I have 400 words of total rubbish. I hate this subject, I don't understand what I'm supposed to be doing and the only thing you ever get out of the tutor is "there are not right answers".

Anybody feel like writing it for me? I'll swap with someone....anyone?

Can we define translation as a linguistic process?

• What are the key features in a linguistic science of translation?
• Is translation only a linguistic matter?
• How can we apply the translation strategies during an act of translation?
• Can we apply any translation strategy consciously?
• Do all issues of translation as a linguistic process refer to a universal affinity between

languages?

• Is it possible to translate every component of a language?

Tis far more evil than it looks. Ah well I'm going to do another hour then check back in before doing the shopping for Rainbows tongiht and picking ds up. I'll be back this evening though, this thread shall be a good motivational tool!

OOh no thank you Indith that looks nasty one to write. think I'll stick with the effects poverty has on dental caries even if i am struggling to find the info i need

crikey indith - that looks heavy!

I spent that hour reading a wittgenstein paper - so no writing and it was heavy going. Good insight though.

Am doing 10 mins mnetting then back to it. Anyone fancy progress check at 12.30?

I shall leave a report a little earlier than that then I'll be back about 7.30 for the evening stretch. Had my 10 mins MN time so I'm hitting the books again!

dyls mum - 600 words by lunch?

choc rock - one paper read by lunch?

me - another 600 words by lunch.

sounds like a good idea, break down into more manageable chunks i might get some work done that way

Well most of a very helpful article read so hoping for more success this evening. I am now off to buy shiny things for my Rainbows and pick my procrastination device up from creche. Good luck folks and hope to see you later or tomorrow.

stopping for 10 min break now, I've managed 728 words. so feeling very happy with myself now, hope everyone else is getting on so well

oops emptied was machine so it turned into 20 min break as i sorted out the washing. gonna work for another half hour then go collect dd from childminder

bbbee how are you getting on. I've got a total of 927 words now. am stopping for now as have to go collect dd. will try and do some more tonght if i dont fall asleep at 9 like i have been for the past few nights.

Anybody about today?

Didn't get anything done last night due to general dying from the cold ds gave me and a screaming ds. Washing on, ds is at creche, I have hot chocolate. Lets go!

hi i'm having a day off, no childcare today so have had a day with a friend shopping instead. will prob do some more tonight when dc in bed tho
did you get much done?

Haven't done anything today. Hoping to proof-read two essays tonight - and write another 1000 words on the other one!

i have just finished one of my 4 assignements i have to get done over the hols. so will be starting the next one in the morning. am trying to do them all before i go away for the week in a fortnight. then i can spend my time when i get back revising for my exam, which i am dreading i hate exams so much, would rather write 10 essays than sit an exam!!

Oh, I am so joining this idea when I next have an essay to do. Pure brilliance!
