Having a war with a spider in my room. It has some seriously good evasive techniques.

Must change tactics. I think I should close down, up the tempo, increase creative freedom, and not time waste.

There's a saying in Hindi: What you have to do tomorrow, do today. What you have to do today, do it now. :)
Problem being that I plan my time ahead of time. I live alone and I don't know anyone in this city yet so I have a shit load of free time. I am hooking up with a couple of musicians to get some projects going though :weee:

Also i like to do my reading the day before to keep it fresh in my mind - within 1 hour of reading something you will forget 40% of the content, within one day 80% and within a week 95%. I was told that during my undergrad as a 'make sure you revise' thing...just encouraged me to cram before exams rather than waste my time learning what i will forget regardless....i got mostly 60s-70s for my exams, it was my course work that fucked me lol.

:wth:

I thought it was "Why would you do something today if you can leave the same thing undone tomorrow too". :D
:lol:

I have my first marked presentation tomorrow, and while I have done all of the reading and more...I am still not quite sure what they're on about. I have a feeling that this is not going to end well.

I took a few minutes to figure out what you meant there! :D
How would you spell it?

Why don't you apply your understanding of the subject and challenge what they are saying?

I will get to do a bit of that, but the biggest part of the assignment is summarizing the responses to the core text. In a nutshell, why is Foucault full of shit? I am finding plenty of my own reasons for not agreeing with him, but some of these other people go off on massive tangents. Maybe that's the key; I'll just get going on something else and confuse everyone :)
