tips on time management, any inspirational quotes /poems you have about phd life? how do i switch from crush-mode to PhD-mode? tips on how think about my paper only.

well Jojo - the only way to get something done, is to do it. I don't mean that in a trite way btw. But if you've got a week, then I'd just have a good go at getting your teeth stuck into it today and tomorrow, and you'll feel much better after a hard days work and can concentrate on your hearts desire at the w.e. Good luck with the paper. Keep up posted.
Sadly I am awake @ 6:30 every week day, as I get up to have a cup of coffee with my boyf befoer he goes to work.
Its good really as I tend to get quite a lot done between about 8 and 10, then I don't feel so guilty about procrastinations later in the day.
