Frustration abounds... and not for the usual reasons, the length is good (only 1 page or 500 words), the topic is interesting, it is the question that bothers me and the boundaries of the paper.
We were told to base our short 500 word essays on our field trips alone, not to do extra research, to write solely based upon what we learned from the tour guide... yet, the question clearly states that I should have learned why the murder of Archbishop Thomas Becket was important to Canterbury as well as England... And yet, while I can hypothesize why it was important to Canterbury based upon what little the guide told us, I can't for the life of me see the answer to the latter part of the question...
And I am also having issues starting it and writing in a coherent fashion... I wish I were better at writing... :(
I tried writing it last night and it turned out very ill indeed, I feel as if I have never written anything before; looking at what I wrote last night. :P But hopefully with a bit of focused revision I should come up with a better composition. *Hopefully*
But today I have that to revise, I need to find an article still, need to do some cleaning and organizing... Need to call the fam. later, see how they are doing...
Monday I need to see about getting my computer registered if in fact it still needs to be... I need to mail out the first of the postcards, and relax a bit.
