I need to start comparing myself to MYSELF. If my average is 3 pages a day, then writing 5 would be a huge accomplishment. Writing 12 is probably impossible for me. That's just how I am. I despise writing, and am very particular about the sentences I create in research papers. I don't know how to bullshit in a paper.
I can, however, bullshit all I want when writing about myself, so I end up writing ridiculous journal entries instead of actually writing my paper.
So. I'll stop now and go write my 3 pages for the day.
