Term Papers

I find writing term papers to be most stressful! What I should be doing is relaxing, and just writing a first draft. If I go thousands of words over the word count, that's okay. I will just evaluate what words are necessary after I finish! :) Theoretically anyways. I find in actuality that writing this Aquinas paper is more likely to send me into paralytic stress where I don't want to push my fingers into typing letters. :P 

I'm just so scared of not being argumentative, or citing too much, or accidently plagiarizing. Outlines are so much simpler! 

I don't know if I should care less, that seems like a strange thing to do! It would be easier to feel things less at any rate. Still, there are papers to be written. Perhaps this is a case of needing to do my duty to the best of my ability, and not worrying past that.

Well, that's the theory anyways. :)

We made it through the outlines together, so I suppose we will also make it through the papers! :) Please do not stress too, too much or else I shall have to come over with tea and cake....

That's probably the most cheerful threat I've ever heard! :)

How is your paper coming?
