Another week, another article. It's not as easy as it seems. I've been mulling over in my mind all week about what I was going to write today and I came up with nothing. Nada. Zilch. So, I thought to myself, "Well, what am I struggling with this week? What's something that's really been grinding my gears?" An answer immediately popped into my head: "Well, coming up with an article idea, for one." So, you know what? That's what I'm going to write about today. The process of writing an article for the Odyssey.

1. When you realize it's Wednesday (aka deadline day) and you haven't even thought about your article yet.

2. ...And you have no idea what to write about (*cough cough* me).

3. So you ask your friends for some ideas.

4. But they don't have any ideas either

5. Deadline's coming up in just a few hours, so you just stare at the blank screen on Muse and pray for God to strike you with inspiration.

6. An idea does hit you then. What if I'm just super meta and write an article about writing an article? I could even talk about coming up this idea in my article about writing an article.

7. So then you write that article.

8. And then you realize you get to do it all over again next week.
