supervisor reviews

last tuesday (the 23rd) we had our first lit-review meeting 1-on-1 with our supervisor, and i've found since then the going has been slow.

Every single paragraph that i write comes out at a crawling pace, i have a feeling my filtering system is getting all messed up and i'm over-concentrating on some details, just sometimes when u need to just write something out but it has to be legit (ie: proven and published somewhere) .. and that is HARD.

For ages i've been a semi-creative writer. One of my best classes in highschool was english lit (yes, not maths) and i've always had a passion for things related to that (i read a lot of fiction, i listen and get emotional with a lot of things like music etc) so to find myself having to conform with this rigid, almost lifeless, writing style is definately getting to me in a way which is completely stressing out.

As dan says, it's only March.. there will be plenty of time to stress later .. but god this is hard.

I can't wait til this phase is over and the gist of this writing-style has gelled a bit.

I can't wait.
