I'm half way though one essay, got another to do on the weekend (great fun again!). Going to start about 8ish tonight.

Anyone joining me for word counting!

hi all

just read through stuff from last night - not as bad as I had feared but brain is not in the mood today. Am planning on getting up tomorrow at 5 am to get in a couple of hours before children wake - any takers fancy meeting me here then to give me an incentive to get out of bed???

purpleduck · 13/04/2008 20:49

Sorry BBB, I can't take you up on that, but I will send you support vibes

I am back at it tonight to finish the essay, then will tidy it up tomorrow.

I am wrecked tonight!

But, we did roundabouts on my driving lesson today, and I rocked!

Jo, are you doing a psych degree?

hi all

hope it is all going well.

anyone working tonight?

(aren;t children knackering!)

purpleduck · 14/04/2008 13:48

Hi BBB
I will be here.
I hardly got anything done last night because I was mumnetting too tired.

I have cunningly invited 2 of dc's friends round, they are all playing, so I can get some work done this afternoon.

And then its Do or Die tonight.
Did you get up alright this morning?

BBBee · 14/04/2008 14:22

after the late night before I fell asleep at 9pm so woke at 3am and worked until 6am and went back to bed. Was quite a good system. Plan to work late again tonight - no hope of getting anything done this afternoon though - my children don't seem to work like that and I can't concerntrate.

Okay greast - will see you later. You planning on going very late?

fairylights · 14/04/2008 15:00

i will be working tonight..and pretty much every night til June 6th (last day of exams) so will always be around for evening/late night MN chats/distractions!

BBBee · 14/04/2008 15:13

purpleduck · 14/04/2008 16:08

fairylights · 14/04/2008 20:16

hellooooo

Indith · 14/04/2008 20:42

Hello!!!!!!!

Am also struggling to stay awake. The sofa downstairs would be far more comfy....

fairylights · 14/04/2008 20:58

don't give in indith!! i have a lovely comfy double bed behind the desk i am sitting at ("office" is in spare room) and i am resisting snuggling up in it as i will inevitably fall asleep...

BBBee · 14/04/2008 22:02

hello

i am worse - i am sitting on the sofa with the telly on and lap top on my lap - have the excuse that I can't work in silence. It is old mighty boosh i know by heart so won't distract me (yeah right!)

I plan to get this baby up to 3000 words tonight, am currently at 1,100!

what are you doing?

purpleduck · 14/04/2008 22:15

I just sat down with it.

I got distracted doing Hazard Perception practice tests and failed them ALL. I was kicking ass on the practice clips, then when i did the practice exams, it all went bad. (Iam doing my theory test thursday)

Anyways, ready to finish it TONIGHT.
And tidy it up tomorrow.

I am aware that I said that yesterday

Indith · 14/04/2008 22:27

Woot! Translation as a linguistic process done, complete, final revisions, bibliography, references done!

Yes I know it is the same one I was doing ages ago but in my defence I had given up on it and done another essay and a half in between.

I am signing off for what remains of the evening. Tomorrow final revisions of discourse analysis will be done, and possibly the remainder of my word count for translation as ideology. Then essays shall be forgotten as I remember about oral exams

BBBee · 14/04/2008 22:30

oh I am so tempted to stop for gavin and stacey adn pulling.

no will turn it off and put it back on for pulling in half an hour.

Am at 1657 - need to get to 3000 before I bathe!

purpleduck · 14/04/2008 22:52

ok, I am going to minimise you all, and work really hard for an hour.
I'll check in and tell you how it went

BBBee · 14/04/2008 22:57

fairylights · 14/04/2008 23:30

am checking out for the night now folks, getting a cold and need to sleep and poor dh standing in doorway saying "are you coming to bed any time soon?"..sleep well and see you tomorrow afternoon/night if you are around!

purpleduck · 14/04/2008 23:58

nite nite fairy

I am soooo stuck

BBBee · 15/04/2008 07:51

i fell asleep on the setee during my break!

so got a lot less done than I hoped - have really lost my mojo at the minute and it really needs to be done!

Anyone working late tonight?

I am going to brave the seventh circle of hell soft play centre and work whilst my children run around. I bet satre didn't write being and nothingness in such conditions!

purpleduck · 15/04/2008 11:00

Oh no!!
Well, you must have needed the rest - you will be all bright and shiny today!

I hope I don't have to stay up so late today. I got quite a bit done yesterday. Tidied it up alot, and left it at a really good place.

Have fun today
