Have finished Chapter 1 of my dissertation. My plan is to finish chapter 2 tomorrow, and chapter 3 and the conclusion on thursday and friday. That gives me the weekend and monday to do research for my Etruscan essay, and tuesday and wendsday to write the bloody thing. Someone told me they'd finished their first draft of their dissertation today and I nearly cursed them off...
It was the last class for Etruscan Italy today and he spent most of his time babbling about Hellenisation. One of my friends asked for an extension on the essay because of the dissertation, and got it. I'm not sure what to think about that. On one hand, it means that I can do the same thing if I have a nervous breakdown between now and monday (a distinct possibility...), but on the other hand, it not only feels like quitting, but it's kinda unfair to the rest of us who are making an effort to get everything done by next thursday without the extension.
My eyes are starting to break down from all this staring at the computer screen. Have been taking breaks every couple of hours and lying in a dark room, preferably with my eyes closed, but it only helps for a little while.
It's funny how sleeping doesn't help when you're stressed.
