motivation check.

i have a paper due tomorrow for evolutionary bio... it's supposed to be 10 pages about this phylogenetic mapping that we did in class. it honestly won't be that hard to write because i know all the material pretty well from working in the old lab. it's all about microsatellite markers and whatnot. but i'm just absolutely dreading writing it. i can't make myself get started.
last night, liz, mark & i went to the library to work on it, but after like an hour we got sidetracked and needless to say, i haven't started the writing process. so i planned to just stay up all night tonight and get it done, but then i realized that it's not due until 5:00pm tomorrow. ut oh. now i *really* don't have the motivation to work on it. it still would be nice to get it all done tonight, but i'm not so sure it's going to happen.

bottom line: finding the motivation to get basically anything done this semester is a real struggle. i keep thinking of all these fun craft projects that i want to work on, or about movies that i want to go see, or about taking a long photo adventure walk with helix, and especially about making a trip to the city. but i can't do any of those things because i am too busy with school and lab. grr.

well. i guess i just wanted to get that out. hoping it would help me find the motivation somehow. i suppose the first step is opening the new blank word document... off i go.

i hope everyone had a fabulous week. here's to a happy friday! :]
