*Harry Potter spoiler*

That pen of Umbridge's that drew blood from Harry's hand when he wrote with it on paper? Yeah, I just wrote a paper (that was due two days ago) and it felt like I was writing it with that pen. It took me three days of sitting in front of the computer for short, unproductive spurts...I actually cried over it because I was so unmotivated and frustrated! And the thing wasn't that big of a deal! I must be depressed or something, writing this was one of the most torturous things I've done to myself in a long time.

*sigh* But I finished it about 20 minutes ago.

*goes to wipe up the blood*
