An Open Letter to Henry James and her Blocked Mind.
Dear Henry James,
Why is it that when people even =mention= "The Turn of the Screw" I can debate for a good solid hour at least and have tons of relevant information to discuss and am able to almost eloquently link sexuality and culture and text and good and evil and corruption all together and yet when I am required to type a 1500 word essay on a text I STUDIED FOR A.S LEVEL I CANNOT DO IT. AND HAVE A REALLY BAD TENDENCY TO NOT WORK AND PROCRASTINATE?!
Dear Mind, (in reference to the above)
Dude, seriously, what's going on? I really REALLY need you to work now. I know we've been up for a good 18 hours or so and we're going to be awake until probably midnight tomorrow night (tomorrow night? Thursday night?). I know I've been pushing you hard, and I know having the cold doesn't help us out in the slightest with regards to writing literary eloquent arguements and the like, but really. I NEED YOU TO PULL TOGETHER WITH ME ON THIS. WE CAN DO THIS.
Otherwise, I will just have heart failure and die.
No love,
Me.
This is ridiculous. I have about 15 pages of notes. I've studied this BASTARDING text before and I fucking LOVE "Turn" but yet, I've been sitting trying to write this essay for a good 12 or so hours. ARGH BOLLOCKS SHIT FUCK PISS BASTARDING FUCK
OK. Right - back to the grindstone HOPEFULLY
