Placeholder for the triumphant "I did it!" post I will make BEFORE MIDNIGHT when I finally finish the first chapter of my bachelor's thesis and send it to my professor. (Actually the deadline was probably yesterday but she said "before Christmas" so it probably technically still counts and who tries to grade papers on the 23rd anyway.)
I could have gone to Worlds Debate Preparation events yesterday and today but I didn't because I had to work, and I had to work because last week I was sooo good at procrastinating and not working, and to be honest I still am that's why it's going so slow (only 8 pages, I used to be able to do that in two days, now not so much.) Consolation prize, I gave the first part to my mother to read and she was impressed, so that's something?
Argh, I'm starting to write anything just so I don't have to go back to work AGAIN, I suck.

ETA: 23:57 and the first draft is done! Now I just have to read through it again to make sure I didn't forget something important (who cares for Becker anyway.) And maybe eat something, even though it's too late. But then, sleep!

ETA: 1:29, DONE. I could have written more about the gender wage gap, but eh, whatever, and I can always put it in the next chapter. (Because there will be a next chapter. And a next chapter. Until March. But I can do this because maybe in the meantime I will remember how to do actual work instead of more procrastination? That would be nice.) I should probably not post stuff when I'm this tired. Tomorrow night is Christmas, yay!

Yes! Only one and a half more chapters to go, and I'm already over the page minimum :) Granted, it's a chapter I left for last because the structure is difficult, but I still have over two hours. And then I can sleep! (And organize Christmas gifts tomorrow, because I am late.)
