Alright, so again doing one of these things again and am hoping for the best. There are less than four minutes to go, but I think I can do it. I think I can get there. I hope I can.

What I should be doing is focusing on other things for the time being as I do not quite have the time to be doing this at the present moment, but I am a glutton for punishment it seems. And so I will be doing this and hoping that somehow I get to the end and knock it out of the proverbial park after I have gone for a proverbial walk rather than a literal one. This is the hope, but the park is nice and I kind of just want to take my time, really.

So anyway, I would take a walk throughout this park and take in the sights and sounds and maybe there would be birds. I would need to make sure that I had my camera with me in order to take photos of them as that way I would then be able to capture the birds and there would be a collection of photos in which I would be able to organise in a certain way so as to be able to create a narrative that would suit an agenda, or perhaps not as I would not really be interested in doing that, to be honest. Well, maybe I would, but an honest agenda is what I would like to push.

Less than two minutes to go and still I am wandering throughout the park and appreciating what it has to offer. Maybe this park is next to the ocean or a river of sorts so I would be able to explore the body of water and see what habitats I might be able to recognise. Maybe I could collect data and write a report, but maybe I would rather just appreciate it first, then do the data collection later. That might provide some sort of fun for me, but maybe it would not. There are plenty of things that it could provide for everyone, however. That is something worth considering, I think.

Less than a minute to go and I keep on racing through the park in order to get to the end goal in the hopes that all is okay and that I can indeed do the thing, but I am in reality at the moment and that puts me in front of my desk and in front of a computer and so I need to deal with that for the time being so that I can deal with other things later. My body is reacting to the racing and maybe that is due to adrenaline or something, but I do not know as I am not a human biologist. I am a marine biologist – kind of – and I think that I can do the thing so long as I keep on trying.

The time it took to write five-hundred words: 03:59:96

So the first thing I want to say is that I’m chuffed about getting five-hundred words written in under four minutes.

The second thing is that I’m glad that this didn’t end up being more of a mess than it is.

Something to clarify: technically I’m only a marine biologist based on a certain level of looseness with the definition of the term.

Also, this was written earlier today rather than just now. Should probably have allowed myself more time before work. Oh well.

Now that I’ve done this, I’m happy to not aim for under four minutes again.

Written at home.
