Writing..... rewriting...

From 1,600 words to 2,000 words to 1,000 words.

Now we're trying to shorten it even more so as to include more points.We did an analysis that could be used to write 2 essays.

As of now, it's down to 900. The official machinery's responses tend to be bureaucratic if not brusque, and dismissive if not arrogant. Perhaps it's because they too have word limits.

Lucky to have some experience in writing straight to the point. And now i see why we had to do lots of summary-related exercises in secondary school and JC.

Summary skills come into the picture when preparing lab reports. The challenge in lab reports is to write technical stuffs using your own words.

Just me and the keyboard. Lucky i had more than enough experience typing on Microsoft Words. All the things learnt coming in handy.
