It's madness in my poor, little, insignificant life right now. Well, insignificant to the point I am only one person and there's much worse out there.
But, as I finish typing a political essay on the Attlee Governments and Democratic Socialism, I've realized a real bugbear when it comes to essays - necessary though annoying.
As you probably guessed from the title - it's referencing and bibliography.
As boring as it is, it is also tedious as those academics among you will realize. To help with the speed of my essays, I have merely referenced in the text shorthand (I use Harvard), and now I need to shift through and write them out, long hand and get my bibliography set up.
With this being one of 4 essays due in in the next 10 days, I have also made a similar (mistake) approach to one of my essays due in a week on Monday.
This coming Wednesday - Philosophy of Logic essay - I'm intrigued how this essay is going to turn out...
then a week on Monday:
Extended Essay [Politics] (which requires BINDING) I've not even started researching, never mind writing.
Germany Politics Essay (needs referencing properly)
UK Essay (just conclusion and referencing required)
So just 3,000 words for the Logic essay now, and a further 5,000 in me for the Extended Essay.
I am on a tight schedule to get all this done, so apologies for lack of interesting blogging in the meantime.
I do miss it. But I'm sure you understand.
Rant over.
