It's Evil, It's All Evil

Well, I'm working on my paper right now, and it's going....not bad. I'm still struggling with keeping the focus on the issue. My paper meeting went as well as I thought it was going to go, so I'm happy that I foretold it so well, although, in reality, the meeting wasn't especially pleasant. I saw this coming though, because no matter what I did, I was pretty sure whatever I was going to write was going to be terrible because I haven't written a real paper on my own time in something like 6-7 months now, so I'm bound to be rusty. (Finals really, really don't count.) I'm also bound to be all over the place, which is always a big problem for me when I write papers, especially bigger more complicated ones. (Translation: I have no clue why I thought this was a good, easy and narrow topic. LOL.)

The hilarious thing was that I had this meeting while Traviska was over, and Travis was waiting for me in the room next door, and he basically heard everything that was said, and there was a lot of yelling (Re: I have a great relationship with my promoter.) about who was wrong where, but generally it was just about me being wrong about everything, which I totally agreed with him about. (Which, I think, threw him for a loop incidentally.) The only things I really disagreed with him about, I don't even disagree with him anymore now that I'm looking at my paper. In fact, I'm not sure what the heck I was thinking. I'm glad I can at least look at that in retrospect now as opposed to after I get a mark for this thing.

OK, well, I should start working on it. I'll talk to you all later. Until then, an elephant! =D
