Gotta Vent! (PG-13!)
November 30, 2007
I busted my buns on a 10-page paper for my English course. It was on Hemingway’s wives. Well, I got it back today. It was bloody as hell.
One comment read: Needs more analysis. Looks like research paper. Um, I kind of thought that it was!
Another comment read: Do you know that quotes are not the only things you have to cite? Um no because you said in class that you didn’t want to see those damn cite marks throughout the paper and to only cite quotes and direct phrases!
Another comment was a question mark out beside a worksheet that was to be turned in with the paper saying Missing. Yeah it’s missing! Remember I was in bed all week on Lortabs. I emailed you about class and you said I was good to go. Never a word about the damn worksheet. So you can eat those 20 points!!
So now this weekend I have to totally rip apart this paper I busted my hump on. Ya know what is kinda funny. All of the other papers in class I did at the last minute and got A’s. I spent time on this one every day and I think I got a C or a D on it. You know what that tells me?? No more thinking!!!

All of my best papers were done last minute. I would do all the reading ahead of time, think about what I wanted to write and then bust aout a 10 page paper in an afternoon. I didn’t know there was any other way to do it. Just tell that teacher to kiss it!
