Wheeee

I'm getting source-happy. This paper needs a minimum 10 sources and I'm going to end up with like 20.

<3 research.

Aah, share your research love with me, please? We're pretty burnt out over here. ;)

*lights research love beacon atop school library. Now we just wait for other such beacons to flare up at other learning institutions until it reaches yours. With dramatic french horn music in the background*

Also, um yeah, I've only expressed this sentiment after a very short period. Of humanities-related research.

Hah, source-love. My worst flaw when writing anything is that I get sucked into the sources. Leading to all sorts of sidetracked, but very enthusiastic learning about slightly related topics but not really anything of use to what I have to write. I just did this to myself again, and now have about 14 days to somehow create a sensible-sounding 20-page essay from what so far consists of lots of interesting things that do not really form a coherent narrative. D:

I have a feeling the chapters would have a amazon book recommendations kinda structure if I let myself.

Yeah there's so much interesting stuff in the world. I am pretty much never bored (insane, yes, but never bored).

Good luck on your paper! What's it for?

uh, the topic is the politics of protecting the environment in third world countries and how NGOs affect the local population. It's for the switching/doubling from music to anthropology thing, because my educational past is extremely messy.
