Sometimes, you kill yourself over a paper, for an entire 12 hours or more. Then you come to class, and you find out that on Monday, when you were sick, everyone belly-ached your teacher into changing the due date. So here you are with a completed paper and a lack of sanity.
The silver lining? I got my first paper back - just a three paragraph ramble to show that I understand paragraph parts. Written on the bottom, it said, "Good use of paragraph parts - but you ramble a bit" - oh, you think? "However, your style and sense of humor are truly outstanding. I am still laughing." That from a teacher who told us he'd never give us nice comments on our papers.
:) Well. If that doesn't just put a smile one your sleep-deprived face, I don't know what will. Also, a kid approached me on campus and invited me into a Shakespeare club because of my jacket, which has Shakespeare wearing sunglasses on the back. He's on the board of producers for Grassroots Shakespeare. Knew I wore this jacket today for a reason.
AND. Now I have time to brush up an already decent paper before it is due, time before my next class to take the bus home and finally wash some pants to wear ( don't talk about it..) AND FINALLY SOME TIME TO NAP. :)
If someday I see you in a Grassroots Shakepeare show, I will die of sheer joy.
ReplyDeleteYou are just oozing good karma. I love you.
ReplyDeleteDo it!!!! Grassroots is sooooo fun and you learn so much. For example- I learned how UNtalented I am. Well, that actually isn't huge news. And you are definitely funny. ANNND I see nothing wrong with rambling.
