So I was just on this other blog and there was this quote that said "you cant just sit around and wait for things to happen, you have to make things happen". Well this really made me think of my papers for college engligh, sometimes I just think that maybe if I sit here and stare at the computer screen for long enough that the paper will write itself. Sadly, papers never write themselves :(... oh well. But they sort of do when you get to write about football players...? :)

Sooo, the title of my essay is "meatheads or misunderstood beings", ha I'm kinda excited about it.

#footballplayers

Meow!

Grrr!
I'm really frustrated with this essay.
I just don't get how this is supposed to be different than a persuasive essay.
I know we talked about it but it still doesn't make sense.
I don't understand the format.
And I thought Stariha was gonna put Jake's essay up there as a student example?
Hmmm?
I can't find it.
And I'm trying to do research and I'm finding a lot of information and I don't know what to use or if it even goes with my topic or what.
Boo!

Stumped and Unsatisfied.

Well this paper couldn't be going worse. No, I take that back. Of course it could be going worse but right now it feels about as low as it can get. I keep hitting dead ends. I start a paragraph and then just run out of things to say and I can't come up with fluff like I use to be able to. I'm at 2 pages and am trying to figure out what to do with the paper. I know exactly what I need but have no idea or confidence to get me there. I'm glad this is a rough draft... but I'm also concern that I am getting too use to this revising method. I use to be able to write an essay... just like that... with the first draft only needing slight revision. I don't know what happened but it makes me sad.

!Overload!

I am sooo stressed.
I knew this was going to happen.
I have been dreading College English for so long and now its here and everything I feared is happening.
We have so much happening at once.
I'm so busy during the weekdays.
I DON'T HAVE TIME TO WRITE A STINKIN PAPER UNTIL THE WEEKEND!
And the weekend is supposed to be my time to recharge.
No such luck!
I have spent allll daaay working on calculus, personal finance, and now college english.
It's just too much for me.
I don't know if I can do this for the rest of the year.
I think I am going to cry :'(

Topic Shmopic

I'm having issues with my argumentative essay. I had a topic picked out, that wasn't on the list, and now I'm trying to pick one on the list but I can't really connect with any of the topics, it's very frustrating, especially since I have to have this thing written by tonight grrrr

Essay.

So my essay rough draft won't be in MLA format due to the fact that we dont have word at my house and I hand wrote it all. I hope thats not a huge deal..

paper...

well idk how good this rough draft is gonna be, but i hope you don't expect much Stariha because I am kind of sucking at this paper right now...
