Mental Block

I like to learn new things. Which is why i find learning about social ostracism in the workplace and the laws of evidence for aboriginals quite interesting. So i wasn't completely dreading writing my next two essays, seeing as those are the topics i'm supposed to be writing on.

However, nothing ever goes as smoothly as planned. My historical essay on evidence law is killing me; have you ever tried finding the reasoning of the government to preclude aboriginals from giving sworn evidene in 1844?! Not easy. Hardly any records going back that far are easily accessible. It's looking like i'll have to trek all around adelaide to find anything - not that i know where to look - unless i want to change my essay topic (which is looking like a possibility/probability).

As for my psychology essay, i'm supposed to find two theories (i think?) about social ostracism in the workplace. I have no idea if i'm on the right track. I found some articles, but it's going to take forever to look through them all. It's due on tuesday, so somehow before then i have to figure out what the hell i'm doing.

Unfortunately, usually the way i work is to get all the info, figure out what i'm talking about and then write write write... but seeing as i can't figure out what i'm supposed to write, it's making things very complicated!! It's driving me nuts not to just be able to sit down and write - i actually would be doing that if i could! But i just can't get started...

I'm driving myself insane here, in case you couldn't tell.

Please, whoever in the blogosphere has this power, make it sunday already - then i'll have something good to take my mind off stupid uni for awhile.
