Done!

The paper has been completed. I'm sure it'll be ripped to shreds, and I still need to go back and add the accents (fun) and proofread it once to make sure it's not utter shit (not fun), but at least it's DONE and I have something to work on fixing rather than work on writing.

Yesterday's progress was arduous, as you may have been able to tell from the last entry. Basically I browsed the web for around 12 hours and intermittently wrote sentences. I had about a half page from the night before, to which I added I think one or two pages yesterday. The rest I wrote this afternoon. Though I think I had a better idea of where it was going as it went along, so that could explain to some extent why it got easier. But more self-regulation was definitely also part of things today. God, I've just never not wanted to write so much. I guess now I know how non-English people feel, or ESL kids, or whatever. It's just painful if you're 1) not interested (though I have delt with this before) or 2) unable to express your ideas (this has not been a problem so much). Whatever the case, I'm glad to be done with the draft, which was 90% of the task, in my eyes. Now I'm already dreading the next one. Though that shouldn't come for a couple more weeks...
