tsukikageI hate this paper. Hate, hate, hate, hate it. To the point of wanting to cry. If I just had to revise it, that'd be one thing, but I basically have to start over from square one. And really, I blame my problems with the first draft on poor description on the teacher's part. I mean, when you're asked a question like "What is expected of children when they are young? When parents are old?", do you think you're supposed to answer in terms of your own household?
I just want it to go the fuck away.
I don't get how some of you do it. How do you write two or three fifteen-page papers in a semester, when a single seven-page paper throws me for a complete loop?
[EDIT: I officially gave up and re-sent the Professor a copy of my original draft. I feel kind of shitty about it since maybe if I was in a better state of mind I could get the re-write done, but since I don't know when he'll be submitting grades I don't really have the time to spare. Ah well, I'm used to this sort of end-of-semester anti-climax.
And with that, it's summer break. Woo.
(You know the saddest thing about all this? I usually do somewhat okay at non-research papers, which this one was. Then again, compared to how research papers go for me, I actually did do somewhat okay.)]
[EDIT 2: Somehow having submitted said paper is giving me a bit more drive to work on re-writing it. Maybe I'll go with that and see how long it lasts.
You know, as embarrassed as I am to admit it, I'm kind of grateful to be gone from school for a while, although I imagine by Spring '09 I'll be fully wanting to come back. At least I literally wont' be able to register for a while.]
