همگام

So in college, I was a government major, which means I had to write a lot of papers.

00:12

Now, when a normal student writes a paper, they might spread the work out a little like this.

00:19

So, you know -- (Laughter) you get started maybe a little slowly, but you get enough done in the first week that, with some heavier days later on, everything gets done, things stay civil.

00:23

(Laughter) And I would want to do that like that.

00:34

That would be the plan.

00:38

I would have it all ready to go, but then, actually, the paper would come along, and then I would kind of do this.

00:39

(Laughter) And that would happen every single paper.

00:46

But then came my 90-page senior thesis, a paper you're supposed to spend a year on.

00:51

And I knew for a paper like that, my normal work flow was not an option.

00:57

It was way too big a project.

01:01

So I planned things out, and I decided I kind of had to go something like this.

01:02

This is how the year would go.

01:07

So I'd start off light, and I'd bump it up in the middle months, and then at the end, I would kick it up into high gear just like a little staircase.

01:09

How hard could it be to walk up the stairs?

01:17

No big deal, right?

01:20

But then, the funniest thing happened.

01:21

Those first few months?

01:24

They came and went, and I couldn't quite do stuff.

01:26

So we had an awesome new revised plan.

01:29

(Laughter) And then -- (Laughter) But then those middle months actually went by, and I didn't really write words, and so we were here.

01:31

And then two months turned into one month, which turned into two weeks.

01:43
