IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOOOOWN


[GIF of David Mitchell having a meltdown on WILTY no longer available]


My final university deadline is the day after tomorrow and I want to beat myself unconscious with a book on child language acquisition. I've already handed in the two extended essays and I've got a complete draft of one of my two dissertations and I still loathe myself. THIS RESEARCH PROJECT IS A NIGHTMARE. I WORK ON IT FOR HOURS AND HOURS AND IT NEVER SEEMS ANY CLOSER TO BEING FINISHED.

Listening to 'The Final Countdown' on endless repeat probably isn't helping.

Thanks to everyone who's put up with my panic and provided me with sanity-preserving amusement over the past four months. It won't be long now. (To my horror.)


(I am really, really sorry about the uncut GIF. The idea is that it will judge me whenever I go onto my journal. YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE, RIONA. GET BACK TO WORK.

I'll probably cut it in a few hours.)

You'll be OK, I'd only be worried if you weren't panicking now because you just didn't care what you wrote, or you were panicking because you hadn't written anything. Neither of those is the case with you, you're doing fine and shortly it will all be over.

That is a fabulous musical choice for the last minute scramble to the finish line and glory. KEEP AT IT.

Never cut such a delightful gif.

YOU CAN DO IT, RIONA! THINK OF HERESY! I would buy you a cake or something else similarly pleasant and sweet to give you on Tuesday, but I don't know what you like.

Deep breaths! You can do it! Also stop listening to the Final Countdown, that never helped anyone. XP And just remember: David Mitchell made it through university and look what a calm, well-adjusted man he is. It can't possibly do any lasting damage, right?

YOU CAN DO IT. GO GO GO.

(and please don't cut it. It is a thing of amazing.)
