New tactics
The realisation hit me earlier this week that I really needed to start doing some serious work for my project since it's got to be bloody long and I've only done the very easy bits so far.
To help with this, I've found some surefire ways of making me work now:
- If I work I get to listen to music at this amazing site recommended to me by Joe Davison. You have to pretend to be American, but it then lets you build a list of some of your favourite music which it makes a radio station around. Pure genius.
- If I don't work the only music I'm allowed to listen to is Fire In Your Heart on loop, the cheesiest piece in the world (hard work) which I performed with MTW on Friday.
- I have an interview with IBM on Friday, and I think the subject of my project might be asked about, so I really should know something about it by then.
- I'm working with Laura and she's doing a lot more than me so I end up feeling very, very guilty!
Right, I'd best go and do some work now as listening to Fire In Your Heart 5 times while checking e-mails and writing this has almost been enough to make me slit my wrists…

[Skip to the latest comment]Wow, that's a brilliant site. But dammit, you've just made me stop working for half an hour just so that I can experiment on it!

Judging by the amount of work i've done on it in the last couple of weeks, you can't be far behind!

That radio station's excellent! Sam and Joe, you are geniuses. It may well save me from the insanity of typing up a 4,000 word creative writing portfolio, which is no mean feat…

You say they're geniuses now lu, but have you seen their singstar skills?
True genius…

Singstar? Qu'est-ce que c'est? (Or "What's that?")

If you'd turned up on yesterday you would have known, but nooooo…

It wasn't my fault! Seriously, I got distracted by a bedside cabinet. You'll have to show me what it is next time you have a gathering!
