~I need swift kick~

**Catastrophic** · July 20th, 2011, 09:35 PM

Please help...

I am doing my last 6months of uni before I finally graduate... There is only 2 subjects to go... In which I have to do 3 assessments each...

2x 3000 word assignments
2x posters
2x 4week block placements

Now with everything else going on at the moment, I haven't been able to find the energy/motivation to start these assignments and I really should be doing them already...

So I call on my lovely BB ladies to kick my butt every few days and remind me to get them done.

Please get all

on me

I have three to keep and eye on by the looks of things.

MN, Feebs and DD2 all finish this year so I will be checking up on you often

Alrighty then. Butt kicking started:

Have you worked out a schedule including contingency time for when things get hard? Work out when things are due. Your due date is now a week earlier than that (so you have some time up your sleeve).

Take 1 assignment & understand the question. Summarise it for yourself. Work out the rough structure, such as Intro 500 words, point 1 400 words, point 2 400 words etc, conclusion 500 words.
Start writing down your references as you go. I always type them up and delete the ones I dont use at the end.
Write dot points for each part of your argument
Have a break. Let it stew.

Repeat for the other assignment.

What is a poster?

Things are difficult but you can get through. This is like riding up the last couple of hills at the end of the race, Tour de France style. You can get there.

Now to take my own brilliant advice.....

Does thinking about doing it count? I was going to do some tonight... but then ahhh well motivation died in the butt! lol. I do like Tashy's idea of writing the references as you go... I do generally try that after my first attempt at them bahahahahaha... oh that took as long as the assignment itself, I swear!
