How To Write 4th Year Sociology Research Papers

The Should Way:

Preliminary reading/research
Define topic and thesis
Research and read sources
Take notes on all sources
Rework thesis
Form outline
Write, write, write

The Actual Way:

Go to a friend's house under the premise that work will actually get done
Make two boxes of No Name brand KD for dinner; one white cheddar, one original neon-orange
Mix it all together in a big salad bowl, forming light-orange No Name brand KD
Eat out of the bowl while standing over the box freezer in the kitchen
Eat banana bread
Make tea
Bring bowl of leftover, cold, light-orange, No Name brand KD into bedroom where you are supposed to be working, sans distractions
Eat leftover, cold KD out of the bowl while squatting on the floor
Take photographic evidence
Desperately write research paper the night before it's due, skip class to work on it all day and email it to your prof at 11:59pm
