Lol, I hate it when English teachers *or TA's* are no good at grading (nitpicking at unimportant things for one). That was me junior and senior year. We were allowed to rewrite. I only had to redo one.
I'm so spoiled now though. My teacher lets me rewrite essays! Although I usually don't have to rewrite because she is a way better grader than usually English teachers...lol
The only downside to white is filling all the empty spaces...and by the time I finish adding everything, I'm too tired to color in those parts and end up turning in a plain poster that was always docked points for "creativity and colorfulness" even if the content was the best ever -.-
>.> Yep. I need 3 sources. I'm glad it's only 3...
That's great! You'll live :) You're at a good pace. I wasn't even close to halfway at this point.
I'll try to be careful. I haven't had a bad experience with highlighters yet, but neon poster board, yes. One left me seeing hot pink for about an hour. I need it to be as noticeable as possible so they'll actually pay attention to it. I wish I could get one of those Ouran arrows pointing at impending doom. Or one of those reaaaalllly bright flashing cartoon ones. (Just 5 minutes ago I found the door locked again. And, of course, it was empty -.-)

Yep, it's very annoying. I need a bathroom to myself, or at least share with people who are more respectful and cleanly.

Yeah I think I've only had to rewrite once so far. And that was because of one run-on sentence. ONE run-on, and she refuses to dish out an A >__>

I don't think I made any early action deadlines. At least you've been able to make the deadlines.

That's great! You'll live :) You're at a good pace. I wasn't even close to halfway at this point.
I'll try to be careful. I haven't had a bad experience with highlighters yet, but neon poster board, yes. One left me seeing hot pink for about an hour. I need it to be as noticeable as possible so they'll actually pay attention to it. I wish I could get one of those Ouran arrows pointing at impending doom. Or one of those reaaaalllly bright flashing cartoon ones. (Just 5 minutes ago I found the door locked again. And, of course, it was empty -.-)

Careful, don't blind yourself with the sign you make. Highlighters can do that, I swear.
