Elizzybeth:
A good point; that shift came about over the course of doing a whole shitton of writing, so it's hard to say what was "conscious realization --> improvement" and what was "improvement --> conscious realization."

Either way, though, I don't think being aware of the principle can hurt your writing...

--- Quote from: RedLion on 08 Mar 2010, 17:36 ---Jeeeesus christ, my first day back from break and I get hit with a bunch of weighty (but long-term) stuff: a 25 page paper on democratization in west Africa, A project where I have to observe a native animal in its habitat over a period of 2 weeks for Zoology (I live in southern Wisconsin, so I'm kind of limited to stuff like squirrels, raccoons beavers..maybe a badger if I'm lucky), and writing a 3-page four-part voice choral piece for music theory. On top of that a professor nominated me to give a 30 minute student symposium on a paper I did last semester about ethnic conflict in the former USSR so I have to get maps, prepare a speech, blah blah.

Overwhelmed now!

--- End quote ---

Having just been through a phylogenetics course, let me remind you that native animals includes just about everything that you can see moving. Honeybees, ladybugs, sparrows, ducks, rabbits, humans...

I wonder if anyone ever got away with studying humans for zoology? Native animal, well, we're not an imported species, so: check. Habitat, seeing as you're here, anywhere you go is your habitat: check. And I suppose one could argue that being of the studied species contributes to greater understanding of their behaviour. I'll keep this in mind...

snalin:
I've been looking into universities, and the one in Oslo has some pretty nice studies that I've applied to.

So, hey, Jens, your don't have an apartment up for rent in the basement? it's not that long to train from your shit hole to Oslo, right?

StaedlerMars:
holy crap guys, i've written 25 pages of solid text (50% there oh yeah).

Hey Baste, you can have my apartment at Bjølsen Studentby if you want, I move out sometime this summer after I've finished my stupid BA. It's 4100-ish kr per month, so not bad if you want your own kitchen and bathroom!
