You can tell when I'm avoiding work when...

This will be the first assignment that I have ever deliberately handed in late, due to a lack of time.

Well, actually, that's not quite it.

I have an Abnormal Psychology Lab Report that I was supposed to hand in today. Of course, I didn't really start writing it until today. Or researching it. Or really thinking about it, for that matter.

I dunno why, but I have been having so much difficulty just getting the motivation to sit down and nut out the damn thing. It's on Anxiety and it's relation to Life Events (which seems bloody obvious from my perspective), which is not a part of Psychology that I'm really all that into. Usually, it's quite easy for me to churn out an essay in a couple of days. I had ample opportunity all weekend to sit down and at least get most of it done, but everytime I sat down to work on it, it's like my willpower and resolve just got drained out of me.

Thanks to Monash Uni's Psych Department's weird penalties, I have until friday to hand it in before I enter the next category of penalties. I'm at 10% at the moment. It's only a Psych Lab Report, I never do well on those things. They're technical pieces, not creative pieces, and every tutor has a slightly different take on the whole thing. Which means trying to get a technically perfect essay is just this side of impossible.

[sigh], Oh well, back to work. If I'm lucky, I'll be able to get all this done, and not have to worry about it again. But god, it's like treading through molasses...
