The Evolution of the Paper

Just a typical Thursday night research paper session . . .

Start out confident that you know the direction you want your paper to go:

Just happily typing away . . .

What to write next?

Hmm . . .


Oh yeah.


Typical writing game-face.


Bored.


Should I make cookies?


No, this paper's due tomorrow. Get back to work.


Crunch time.


Uh-oh. Writer's block.

More writer's block.

This paper is due in T minus 12 hours! Panic.


Despair.


Paper. I keel you.


And that's the part I am at right now. It's a scary picture, I know. But seriously, if these papers are going to be the death of me, I'm going to get them first.

And then, once the paper's done, I'll be happy again:


It's the circle of life.

(Guess who's procrastinating her papers! If you guessed Megan, then you guessed correctly! Ding, ding, ding, ding! But really, I'm almost done with one of my papers. Which is good. But now I get to do the whole cycle again with three other papers. Woot.)
