Title: kill me now Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Monday, January 7, 2008, 00:40:50 I've had enough. I've spent literally all day writing this fucking essay and its getting me down now. Again. I'm 438 words (yes, I'm checking my word count every sentence) away from reaching the bare minimum for the word count, and I've been talking bollocks since I hit 1k. I must've repeated myself a million times by now.
It's going to get a piss poor mark but theres fuck all I can do about it now. My own fault. I do feel better for sharing though. Title: kill me now Post by: axs on Monday, January 7, 2008, 00:45:32 whats it about?
Title: kill me now Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Monday, January 7, 2008, 00:50:46 A book. Sentimental Murder: Love and Madness in the Eighteenth Century, by John Brewer.
Here's the question: It could be argued that this work is not traditional history: to what extent is its version of the past successful? What does it teach you about the task and craft of the historian? Title: kill me now Post by: axs on Monday, January 7, 2008, 00:58:33 :shock:
good luck mate. Title: kill me now Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Monday, January 7, 2008, 01:03:03 Mate you should see the criteria for the question (!), "use journals, online e-books, reviews, blah blah blah, make reference to numerical data, etc". I tell you, electronic journals and (university) online resources are a waste of fucking space. Google was my resource!
326 words to go! Title: kill me now Post by: axs on Monday, January 7, 2008, 01:04:58 does the bibliography count towards the word count? easy 200 there!
Title: kill me now Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Monday, January 7, 2008, 01:07:39 I fucking wish! My list of references is nearly 300 words long. Job would be a goodun! Technically quotes don't count towards the final word count but I've scraped the barrell so far I'm digging a hole in the ground beneath, you know?

Congratulations on having a good job at such a young age. The guy was just stating that he was struggling with an essay he had to do. Your initial response was pretty uncalled for. PS - I hate to be a pedant, but how you managed to gain any sort of employment with spelling like that is beyond me. Title: kill me now Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Monday, January 7, 2008, 13:02:18 Alright, I won't. Never did.
And if it gets you off my back a bit, I'm aiming to taking a PGCE after I've finished my degree, to teach at secondary school level. Does that validate me? And I pay my taxes. If only in error. Title: kill me now Post by: JPC82 on Monday, January 7, 2008, 13:38:53 so yeah gazza u are still a wally
Title: kill me now Post by: sonic youth on Monday, January 7, 2008, 13:53:48 work is piss easy. i just can't find anywhere that'll employ me.
Title: kill me now Post by: Lumps on Monday, January 7, 2008, 16:47:58 This is priceless.
Is GFM for real, or is he this forums equivalent of Harry Enfields Loadsamoney? Every post he makes reminds me of how necessary getting an education is. A degree must seem a complete waste of time and money for him as he's clearly happy being a petty, small minded and semi-literate tool. "I earn £30K.... blah blah blah I'm great..". The girlfriends either not that bright or some kind of fucking saint, cause the conversation can't be up to much, and as he thinks having a bend in his cock makes him so special he can skip foreplay and never has to go down on her, I can't imagine the sex is exactly mind blowing either. What a tool. Oh and I'd guess that the "student waster, don't know you're born, wait until you've got a full time job" bollocks would carry a lot more weight if you haven't previously described your working days as consisting of surfing the net, shouting at other staff members, borderline sexual harrassment and wanking in the office toilets. :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: For the sake of balance though IBIMR I've got to say if you've written a 1500 word essay in one day, I'm not suprised you've struggled and it's a bit shit. Try starting working on the fucking things a bit earlier rather than leaving it until 24 hours before it's due in. You've had it sitting around since before Christmas haven't you you idle fucker, and you've just ignored it and played on your X-box and got pissed with your mates. Title: kill me now Post by: ibelieveinmrreeves on Monday, January 7, 2008, 17:02:54 Nearly right there, I'd known about it for ages, and I think I said before that I only have myself to blame (its fucking stupid, a retarded attitude that seems to be the prevailing one amongst students. I'm not usually like this, always start thinking 2 or 3 weeks before deadline day, its just with christmas and all...). I also don't have an xbox (or mates) to piss away my time with.
I don't like to complain but in this instance, I really felt the need to vent, which I'm sure you can appreciate. Oh yeah, it was 2500 as well :D Title: kill me now Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, January 7, 2008, 17:17:54 My job is far easier than the exams I am still doing. Mind you I think the studying is a bit hard because by the time I get home from work I can't be bothered to pick up a book - your brain just doesn't want to function.
I wish I was a student again. The only issue is being a skint most of the time, but it's definitely easier to study when you can dedicate more time to it.

Precisely my problem, working 9-6, doing my professional qualification and an MSc in one go, plus buying a house. No compalints though, the company let me go to uni, pay the fees, and in 2 years when it's all done I'll be sitting pretty provided the property industry stays afloat Title: kill me now Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Monday, January 7, 2008, 21:19:07 Essays are best done at the last minute, it's not retarded. Couple of years ago I did a 3000 word essay in one night and also a 10,000 word report in 3 days. Got 1st for the essay, 2.1 for the report. I don't regret it.
I actually think it tends to flow better if you write most of it at the same time anyway, rather than spread it out over a few weeks so you forget what stuff you've not googled yet. Title: kill me now Post by: Gazza's Fat Mate on Tuesday, January 8, 2008, 12:48:01 Yes yes yes you are right on counts I am a very happy, respected, intellignet, well quilfied (via the chartered instiute of insurance), with a very happy g/f..... tool.
