After spending about 15 minutes trying to get ahold of $4 for a required ‘printing card’ so I could print my essay, I decided to run to the nearest shop instead for change. I begin by asking one of the librarians how I would go about getting a card for printing. She points out to me a nearby machine to me, and explains that I require $4 in gold coins. I only had a $10 note, but I was in a hurry to meet a time deadline for my essays, so I decided to spend the entire $10 note.
But then the machine wouldn’t accept the $10 note. So I asked the librarian if she had any change on her, to which she replied she didn’t. So I asked another librarian, who also claimed to have no gold coins. With a rapidly approaching deadline, I was now beginning to get desperate. I approached a girl who was printing and requested that she print out my documents using her card, and in exchange I would give her $10. She hestiantly agreed, and so I started sending through my documents to the printer. Then she discovered, or at least claimed, that she didn’t have enough credit. By now I only had 4 minutes left until the office that accepts the essays is closed. I asked several people around me for change, but none had any. One asian guy thankfully did and opened his wallet, but only to find that he had no gold coins. So then I asked another librarian and explained my situation in order to try and convince him to hand over his change. But he too said he had none, and so I returned to the initial librarian, forgetting that I had already asked her. But then said she said ‘Sorry, you’ll have to wait, this person was here before you’, with a complete indifference to me which annoyed me. The other person declared that his concerns could wait, but the librarian of course could be of no help to me. By now there were only 2 minutes left, so I went to the closest store to get change, which thankfully they allowed me to interrupt the queue for.
After returning, buying the card, and printing, it seemed I was out of luck since the time was now 5 minutes overdue. Nonetheless I made to the office within the next two minutes or so, and the guy working there was forgiving and patient enough for me to fill out the necessary forms and hand in my essays. I really cut it fine this time, but it all worked out in the end.
Well the other essay is easier to do than I expected (minimum bibliography of least 10 sources which are explicitly mentioned in the essay had me concerned).
16 hours so far with 3200 words completed in total on both essays. I still have another 8 hours for the remaining 1050 words and to complete referencing, but I’ve left the most difficult parts to last.
19 pages of this blasted incoherent jibberish that I have to try and comprehend in order to finish my essay.
I spent 4 hours carefully reading through it, and after finishing reading it, I still feel like I don’t understand most of it.
Gonna go watch the Eurovision song contest now, have fun guys.

Just, shut the fuck up. You’re not helping anyone. You’re hurting people who don’t need to be hurt and you’re no more intelligent than anyone else, you’re just a really small individual who can’t accept other people’s beliefs.
We better leave people to their beliefs..

Women are in unanimous agreement that they want to be surprised with gifts…. They want, of course, to be surprised for the thrill of it. However, a deeper, more important reason lies behind this desire…. “freedom from guilt.” Some of the women pointed out that if their husbands enlisted their help in purchasing a gift (like diamond jewelry), their practical nature would come to the fore and they would be compelled to object to the purchase.
N.W. Ayer played the most important role in popularizing the diamond, turning it into an emotional symbol and necessity for marriage, and came up with the famous slogan ‘A diamond is forever’.
