Have hit wall. Am attempting to break through it with geological hammer.

All along the corridor, worry-lined faces are showing signs of strain. Hushed voices talk in whispers outside the rooms - "When's it due?" "How are you holding up?" It's heavier than I thought; growing quickly over the final days.

I'd like to do things naturally, if I can manage it. As I refuse assistance, the others stare at me in horror. "But that's barbaric!" "In this day and age, too!" "I'm sure nobody does that any more - not since the chemicals were easily available."

...All I did was point out that I don't drink coffee. Honestly, from the reactions you'd think that I was giving birth without an anaesthetic...

Keep your modern ways
And keep your bugs
The Metal Man is here to stay

You say I only work, all night and day
Do say 'Use me, I'm cheap to rent'

Hey, I don't either. I mean, maybe I'm not the best example of what to do academically, but as far as I'm concerned, the rush isn't worth the crash. Same with too much processed sugar during overnighters.

Good luck with it.

You're going to need a new hammer by the end of this, aren't you?

Nearly there. You can do it!

Oooh!
I see you also are of the super breed that does not require Coffee to run effectively.

If [livejournal.com profile] morsla is not human for not drinking coffee, what does that make me? I don't drink cola, energy drinks, coffee or anything else caffeine related other than tea.

Diagnosis?
