There is only one thing better than writing an essay, and that is knowing what you are doing when writing an essay. Thankfully I made that transition today.

Tomorrow is my last full day to get motivated and produce something awe inspiring. A number of things have fallen into place which should make the whole process a little easier, one of them being Jon coming over and letting me know he still hasn't started. It's like unprofessional suicide in my opinion, but he always manages to get a good grade at the end of the day, which makes me feel much better that if he can start after me and get a good grade, then I shouldn't do too badly. I hope.

I've managed to eat my way through an entire week's shopping which means that tonight I had to order Chinese. I'm not complaining, I bloody love Chinese food, but if I have to do it again tomorrow and the next day, prices start adding up. Although McDonalds is just over the road I still can't bring myself to buy one for one of my staple meals of the day. As I detect no time for shopping in the interim, I could be shedding pounds this next week.

I had to write to an Italian guy yesterday regarding linking directly to a file on my website (therefore eating my bandwidth). I could turn it off, but I'm too busy, so instead I sent him an email (politely) via the Babelfish translator. His response was as equally mumbled as mine (Babelfish again) but I got the jist he hadn't understood most of it. This is not a surprise really, as when I fed my Italianised email back through the translator it made less sense than the Italian on it's own. One more reason for me to take up something linguistic; I've always wanted to learn Italian.

I also have been misbehaving. While I should be concentrating on Project 100, I have found myself today:

• Watching football
• Reading BBC News
• Creating brand identities
• Reading BBC News again (then checking it)
• Reading my RSS Feeds
• Reading BBC News over
• Dousing my infernal ulcer with salt water

Tomorrow is the big push.
