I just counted, and I've written 21 essays since the second week of September for my English class alone. That's an 800 word essay every other night, plus reading and re-reading the material to write about, pulling quotes, editing, proof-reading, etc.
There have been 5 essays longer than 2,000 words:
-4 papers that took place as a culmination of the segment we were working on
-One journal of 10,500+ words.
I have a 4 essays left for this semester; two of the 800 word essays, one essay that is actually 3500+ words, (An early draft of our senior project) and another 10,500+ word journal.
Luckily, my class isn't writing next semester. (Mainly, that is.) We're just reading a lot of plays.
So, my fellow ArmorGamers, were the 10 cheap college credits worth taking the class and giving up my social life? (Keep in mind, a paper every other night, in addition to my other homework...)
you are a patient guy! and you must be really boring to be with all that writing and thinking and writing like your friends cannot talk to you. that is such a drag...
and you must be really boring to be with all that writing and thinking and writing like your friends cannot talk to you.
What? Most of my good friends in are in the class as well. I've got time to talk to people...If I really put my mind to it, and decided to get the whole paper done in one night, it would only take 2-3 hours at most, including revision.
Keep in mind MudPuddle that your reviews and whatnot are on a subject matter that you find interesting. Now I don't know if this is true, but I feel that Zootsuit_riot doesn't enjoy either the plays he's reading and/nor writing about them.
Pretty much...We just got done with a segment on advertising. It was interesting, but the very first paper was on male sexuality in ads...Which meant the essay we had to read to base our writing off of was filled with pictures of half-naked men, with commentary by the female author.
It's interesting to see what sort of techniques companies use in their advertisements, but now I'm analyzing every ad I see on television or in a magazine. :\\
I beg to differ. A large bulk of science is observation and results, yes, but the more significant portion of writing would be interpretation of said results and discussion of the process. The breakdown of my thesis was as follows:
Well, I've never had to write a thesis before Strop, so I didn't realize that hahaha. I was, for whatever reason, thinking the basic stuff we've had to do in my Physics and Chemistry classes in high school was the extent of the difficulty of scientific papers. I forgot how much harder college science would be. Dangit.
I'm already writing a book. It is entitled, Exryian Legends. I spend most of my Media Center time writing it, it's actually very helpful to your self-esteem, which I have none of.
