You have no idea how much stuff I have to do by the end of today. I'm meant to be hitting 3,000 words of fantasy novel by 5pm -- and then spend an hour or so rewriting the other 1,000 -- and so far I've managed 259. Which was just rewriting the end of a scene I'd *already written*.

On the plus side I wrote about 1,600 words of non-fiction stuff yesterday which is finished apart from a last line to tie it off. On the downside, that's the *only* thing I've finished for non-fiction and I need to finish the novel extracts by early evening because I need to spend the rest of the night rewriting non-fiction stuff. And then I was supposed to be writing another short story for the 303 portfolio, which I kind of know what it's meant to be but have no idea of specifics. I'm not even sure I can write it in such a short space of time, because it's the kind of thing that needs lots of meaningful dialogue (and preferably biblical research which I so do not have time for right now). But it'll still probably be easier than rewriting the other story that's an option, since that's more complicated.

And yet I'm still on LJ instead of working. And just about to go make myself a cup of tea, because I need the destressing. Sigh. Remember last year when I said I wouldn't do this? Yeah.

Freshers are seriously beginning to irritate me. Yes, we know you don't have exams for weeks yet. This doesn't mean the rest of us don't. Y'all taking over the kitchen, laughing like hyenas in your rooms and playing loud music is not helpful in any way.

Freshercide. It could be a new sport. That or I just take revenge when all my deadlines are over and they're trying to revise. Very loud revenge. Just watch me.

On almost 2,000 words of novel. We're ignoring the fact I was meant to have 4,000 words of submittable stuff five hours ago and go with this being a good thing. Though even if I get the two non-fiction rewrites done tonight on top of rewriting the 1,500 words of novel I already had, it still leaves me with all 8,000 words of 303 to finish and edit tomorrow. Not to mention the 5,000 words of critical stuff.

...

Why am I on livejournal again?
