Memories.

I remember the first writing project I was assigned in fifth grade. I don't remember what I was supposed to be writing, exactly, but I remember that we were supposed to finish our introduction before recess. And I remember staying in at recess to write my introduction.

At that point in my life I always wrote the introduction last. I had most of my paper written but I also really liked rules and preferred writing to recess. 

I'm a total weirdo.

As I recall, our second writing assignment went something more like "you have to have half a page written before recess".

I've been changing the world for a long time.

My current writing assignment isn't going as well or as quickly. And I've developed some new techniques since fifth grade. I've written the introductory parts. Then today I wrote some more but I'm pretty sure with two to three more sentences, it's my conclusion. The middle parts are what elude me now.

Maybe I should throw the whole thing out and grab a piece of wide ruled paper, skip the top half and start with the middle like I used to.

Or maybe I should start skipping all my recesses until I get it done.
