You still have this weekend. Don't think about the total and the end prize, think about what bit you are going to do today. Think up your opening thesis paragraph for your paper and then you will get interested in it like one does when figures out how to do a math problem. What is your paper on? Does the site go with it?

I just got my next paper assigned last Friday and we are starting the statistics portion of the course and the paper has to be a real paper but about a particular spreadsheet (8000+ records, all messed up :-) and I have to write about that spreadsheet's information. It has taken me all week but I have figured out how to proceed and if I can hold together my "story" writing and my facts/figures/charts/graphs learning and not explode I'll have it made!
