Starting Something Sucks

First: alliteration in the title. Holla at it.
Second: I greatly enjoy late-night conversations. The only upsetting thing is that my late-night conversations have to be over the phone now. Oh well. At least I have my awesome best friends to keep me sane.
Third: I hate the feeling you get when you have a big project that you need to start, but you don't want to start it. You know what I mean? I have a big term paper due in less than two weeks, and I want to get it finished by this weekend so I can turn it in for feedback, but IT'S SO HARD TO ACTUALLY START IT. Especially since it's supposed to be 7-10 pages long, and I don't know a tremendous amount on my topic.
I know once I start it, I'll be fine, but it's the effort it takes to actually begin that makes me want to punch a toucan. And toucan are just too adorable to punch!

UPDATE: So I wrote a very, very rough outline of my paper. I basically included all of the knowledge I know about my subject (the Catholic Church during the Mexican Revolution) without any references to back up the info. As I was rereading it, I burst out laughing, though, because in one of my bullets I literally wrote "Madero was pretty tight with the Church because he needed that bitch's support with politics and shit." and it made me smile a lot. I thought I'd share that because it's smile-worthy.
