Anxious.

Stupid ed psych essay. Now it seems like I'll be spending the long weekend (Lest We Forget) with pleasant company of achievement anxiety. Oh yay. I'll tell you what, it's giving me anxiety of my own. In fact, I blame this for my sickness this week. This and linear maths, too. Maybe they're in kahootz.

The notion of referencing shits me. I've noticed that all the papers, journal articles and book chapters seem to reference each other in a never ending loop. Does anyone come up with original thoughts anymore? Or do they just appropriate an idea that someone else copied from some obscure publication that used key points from such and such...? It's as if its a giant chinese whispers game, except that no one knows who started it off and it keeps going round and round and round... et cetera.

And I'm paranoid that someone will accuse me of academic dishonesty so I'm pulling references out of my arse and smearing them all over this stinking essay. Bah!
