As I continue to work on my summary documentary paper, I find that it is very overwhelming. I get flustered even thinking about it. Instead of breaking down like I did, twice, if any one was wondering... lets see if a check list will prevent me from having another.
THINGS THAT I HAVE DONE AND NEED TO DO BEFORE FRIDAY SEPT 30TH:
- Pick out a documentary and watch it*
- Re-watch the documentary and take notes*
- Select important scenes*
- Open Word and start typing*
- Have a mini break down*
- Wipe off tears and grab a snack*
- Continue typing*
- Attend class to realize that my paper is potentially garbage*
- Continue typing*
- Ask for help*
- Revise my paper*
- Continue to find more help*
- Use advice and revise*
- Have another mini break down*
- Continue to ask for help again*
- Revise some more
- Pray
- Re-read paper one last time
- Pray some more
- Turn in summary documentary paper
This was a fun read! I hope you appreciate that I see this as humorous -- I think you intended it (as release?). The thing is that you're already such a good writer; you worry seems maybe more inflated than it might be? Still, I'd rather see a student worrying things as a path to creating structures for getting work done than ... not. Keep at it ... maybe with fewer breakdowns? :)
