‘James’ T. Kirk (my tutor) has kindly offered me another extension until today. Naturally, this gives me just enough time to re-work the steaming pile of pooh that is my lame excuse of an essay. I am over-awed by just how much there is to learn about Mesopotamian, Egyptian and Mesoamerican urbanism. You could pick either one of those areas, dedicate a lifetimes worth of research and you’d still only be barely scratching the surface.
I am unsure whether or not to include the footnotes or not (they are running into over 700 extra words so far). In all likeliness I shall have to either omit them and post them up on the forum or perhaps email them.This is such a tricky subject, I confess I am buckling under the strain, it is as though I am Atlas.
Righty ho, a cup of tea, bowl of porridge, and I am ready to begin re-working this paper. Last night I slumped asleep next to the keyboard at about four-thirty. This morning at nine I was awoken by a sudden loud thunderclap, and some more flashes of light and rolling thunder, fell asleep again for a few hours, and am up bright-eyed and bushy tailed, all set to re-work this bad boy.Let’s see how today goes.
