After emptying my brain of any useful thoughts onto a jumbled page of notes, I then proceeded to observe people in the study lounge around me by looking at their reflections through the glass infront of me. I zoned out for a couple minutes and then realized how tired I was, even though it was only midnight which is about 7 hours before my bedtime. I headed upstairs to take my mid-afternoon nap. I set my alarm for 25 minutes, and proceeded to pass out on top of my freshly cleaned laundry which was all over my bed. After snoozing a couple times, I took a shower to wake up and downed a small sized energy drink that some sketchy guy was giving out in the lounge. I then turned off my phone, and logged off of facebook and sat down to write my paper.
I sat looking at my notes trying to decide an appropriate way to organize my paper, having no idea where I should start. Looking at the information I had, I mapped out a thought process which would lead me to at least the beginning of talking about education. I knew I wanted to write about the ecological properties of technology, so I thought I would start as abstract as possible. My first paragraph describes the removal of feral felines cat from the island of Macquaire, Australia. I then proceeded to set the scene by showing the correlation of the cat and the TV being introduced to American public. I also talked about the computer being introduced to the American public, which was my segway into education considering the piece of technology with the biggest effect on education was the computer. Now I am not so sure where to proceed from here, and kind of re reading what I wrote and blankly staring at the screen waiting for some magic to happen. I will continue to do that, and stop writing this blog post which is not exactly very useful to my paper, but more of a way to distract myself and maybe begin some brainstorming.
