I know how you feel. One hour class equal at least two hours of homework, at least for me. As if we aren't busy enough with life.
Lol! Yup, it's the same way with me when it comes to college essays. I hate writing papers. It takes me so darn long!! I mean, I prefer studying for exams than writing papers. Bleh. Too bad we have to write so many in college.
Well, I wish you the best in school. I'm currently on spring break, though it's not much of a break for me. I may be off of school but I'm still working. Oh well, at least I don't have to stress over cramming in homework every night. >.<
Well I don’t mind people knowing about me, I just don’t like giving out enough info so they can actually find me. It’s the same in real life, not giving out phone numbers, addresses, etc.
What people think of me, to some degree, I honestly don’t give a damn. I’m comfortable with who I am so if others have issues with that; I see it as their problem instead of mine. The only problem I run into is people see that as arrogance when it’s really just because I don’t have self esteem issues.
I don’t need others praising me to feel good about myself. I like it when people take the time to get to see the real me, but if they see me negatively, it doesn’t really irk me. I figure it’s their loss ya know?
As for the English, I know I’m better; I did have to take tests for graduating after all. I just wish my scores in that area were a little higher. I did excellent on the comprehension and other factors, but my grammar errors dragged the score down.
I wish I understood how you can do that. Maybe I should bug you to explain so I can learn. Or figure out what I should do or take to improve... either or. =P
I do, though, however, find myself one of the lucky ones when it comes to English classes and papers. Then again, I'm not horribly far into college yet. Give me time. >_<
Hopefully it stays that way for you then. o_O I wouldn't wish English getting harder on anyone... however, what you have to do... it's a given that it gets harder and more annoying the further you get in. XP
Though that is a good idea- i mean most people keep who they really are secret... least i do >_>.. We care more about what others think about us than we care ourselves.. mm that didn't make sense now reading it.. uhh better way to explain better way to explain...... nvm @.@!!!!
*gives up* *trips* ACK
m i know what you mean by the improving over time yet... you dont see it. I didn't either. When i was younger i couldn't spell anything... I know my spelling sucks now but back then it was REALLY BAD. 10x worse than now @.@! then i met someone who was constantly on my back about spelling and fixed my mistakes till i learned to be better. though i never noticed it- everyone else did.
and i have to go eat ^^;; brb
I'm really curious to see how things will be once I'm done. Though things are going to seriously change before then, what with getting married and all... o_O
Still, the job market is just scarier than hell and though I'll be fine, I feel bad for a lot of people I know who are done and struggling to find a decent job.
But writing... oh jeez. Many times I've sat for hours and hours in front of my computer, just trying to even start a paper. It's gotten easier lately, but still...
Oh good. Not that I'm glad you have the same problem... but dammit! I feel like I should be able to just do it by now. I've only been in college for what feels like forever. lol
Yeah, for some reason, things stick when I read them. I wish it was more than a few months though. And yes, truly knowing someone, even yourself, is a mystery. =P
I hear you when it comes to the whole bit about testing. As long as I attend class, I find that I do fairly well on the tests. I do, though, however, find myself one of the lucky ones when it comes to English classes and papers. Then again, I'm not horribly far into college yet. Give me time. >_<
I dunno why, but I feel like you guys here at theO are just as good of friends as some of the people I've known in real life. In many instances, I find myself feeling stronger about my friends here than most people feel I should. Maybe it's how I've often been more distant from my peers and at times have held them out at a distance... or maybe it's something else.
...and that being said because Twisted stole the snarky comment idea.

Sometimes I miss college... I felt more independent then than I ever have in my life. I also wish I could go back and be a better student than I wound up being. -3-

You know, I'm the same way. I never do much studying at all for tests or things, but as long as I've done the reading once the details stick.

Hey, you can hold onto details longer than I can. A few months? Mine's a few days, at least when it comes to testing. What a wonderful education system we have. >.<
Do we ever truly know someone? *shot*

Essays are evil. That's all you need to know! I wish I could remember things that easily though. It would make school a lot easier. XP
