I hate writing papers...

[Firebird67dude]

I hate it!!! I need to write a paper comparing E. Poe's Purloined Letter to a movie called Double Indemnity. I've been working on this paper for a total of 9 hours so far and have only writen 2 pages. I can't see any comparison between the two. In class I made one comparison and the professor said I was wrong. I hate her. I also need 4 to five referances, yea ok, good luck trying to find one. I also need a thesis.

I guess its a good thing that I'm just going to be learning how to kill people.

Writing papers FTL ... but i'm not likeing my statistics and probabilty homework either :(

[Firebird67dude]

Well when I finaly found something to compare and said it in class and I am told that I am wrong by the prof. I got pissed. Plus this fat *** that sits infront of my called me an idiot so I called him words that I can't post. Then I was like whats the point.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

Sounds pretty in depth by the way. I would help but I've never heard of either of them. What class is this for?

Its a Social Aspects in Lit. class. ITs a mystery novel class. The prof. is actually a nice lady but I just can't do this paper.

I failed this class once already, so if i fail it again I have to take the class at another school.

no worries college will teach you how to BS pretty well, if not by the end of the first year then definately by the time you are a junior or a senior. I mean how do you expect people to write a 15 page RESEARCH paper the day before? pure (90%+) BS! :lol:

at least those were my experiences

at least those were my experiencesRight! But it isn't ‘BS skills’, it's 'communication skills’. The art of the spin. :lol:

They key to anything you write for someone else is knowing your audience and tailoring your work to their whims, insane or not. If your boss/prof likes insanely verbose answers, then write, write, write. If they like 1 page summaries, learn to be concise & use bullet points. And always make sure you answer the question actually being asked.

I just finished a 20+ page 'paper' today in work. LOL. It never ends...

ohh i agree, its always about what teacher likes. That's why the first paper during the semester is the hardest for me. It helps if they provide an example but otherwise i just put in 75 effort and see where it comes out to be. Some require more some require less. This current project requires a lot :lol:

what did you edit in my post?

[bandit88]

yeah but i find that the same way with quizzes to
you have to test the waters with the first assignment due.... that's usually my worst grade!

1st would be most difficult, no doubt. I can totally understand your method of operation there, especially if the grade weight isn't too heavy. The only way to maybe mitigate that is lots of questions up front to get an idea of what they want/expect. Some will lay it out for you better then others. Some couldn't articulate their thoughts if their life depended on it. Bosses or profs.

[Firebird67dude]

My one friend had her last semester and said that she is willing to work with people. So I will give that a shot and see if she can give me a week extention even tho it was due last Thurs.

See the main problem is I wasn't planing on going to school this semester. I WAS supposed to leave Aug. 27th. I honestly say that I have lost my drive for school. I want to leave for training. I can see the benefits of that more than school. Plus once I'm dont with BT, they will pay for scholl rather than myself paying for it.

[Savage_Messiah]

Just "BS".

Since you edited it out... what's that stand for??


:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

[bobb1589]

yeah... im surprised i havent had that many papers to write so far... and i usually just procrastinate alot until i realize i really have to do it :P

[12secondv6]

Kids...... back in my day...... it was more difficult....it took forever to use the hammer and write on slate..... you kids have it easy!

[Teds89IROC]

I knew that was coming :lol: I don't mind papers too much; I'm taking a western civilization course online as well as an islam history course online (my non-western requirement) I write 3 mini papers a week in addition to the work for my other 4 regular classes. and it definitely got easier knowing what the professors want. Another point on BS, one of my classes is a politics class and I notice those who dont voice their opinions (only opposing views to the professor's) seem more liked by the professor. It sucks it has to be that way but thats the game lol

[Savage_Messiah]

politics class

I did that, what prof?

[BonzoHansen]

Kids...... back in my day...... it was more difficult....it took forever to use the hammer and write on slate..... you kids have it easy!At least you might have had some internet to teach you how to carve the stones.

[PBodyGT87]

im really great at writing papers. if you need help, just ask. I'm also a film minor, so i think i know what kind of ******** you need.

[Firebird67dude]

The story is about a guy that steal a letter and the movie is about a guy that kills someone. Complete opposites if you ask me. Plus it seems that majority of my profs this semester are very liberal. They suck!!!

you still haven't completed that paper? :lol:

[Firebird67dude]

you still haven't completed that paper? :lol:

Nope. My one friend took the class two semesters ago and got an A on this exact paper. So I'm gunna take that paper and modify it. I talked to the prof last ngiht and she said MY grade will automaticly be no higher than a C. So wtf is the point? She also said "You might still be able to pass this class" So doubly what is the point.

[BonzoHansen]

Is it too late to drop the class?

[Knipps]

Oh well, then he's screwed. LOL

[Teds89IROC]

Kasey, I have prof. Sesay.

[Teds89IROC]

i'm right with you on hating writing papers...and legal writing is even worse than the crap i had to write in college...so many more rules and techniques to bs, that they actually WANT you to do. plus briefing 10ish cases every day gets a little tedious. it's crapola


EDIT: oops ted never logged out of my computer

love, jm

[Firebird67dude]

Is it too late to drop the class?
