Woah, woah, woah. Hold the phone. Pause the tape. Hold your horses. (Continue with cheesy cliches as long as you wish).
You mean to tell me that in order to write this paper, I had to have done the readings?
Yes, Alex. If you expect to succeed in this course, doing the homework is required. No more riding on coat tails. You gotta work.
LE GASP!
How dare professors require that of me! I mean, I am me, after all! A genius! Very lazy, but a genius!
I struggled today for the first time in... well documented history to write an essay for a class. Normally I can sit down at my computer and come up with something brilliant in a matter of hours. This time though was a different story. I must first start by saying that I don't understand Postmodernism at all. The whole concept just kind of eludes me, and it doesn't help that there is no real solid example of what is postmodern. It's really all up to the reader. You would think that would make my job easier as a BS writer, but not this time! In fact, it made this one waaaaaay more difficult than it needed to be.
Fear not, the assignment was finished on time, but it still took me way longer than I was comfortable with.
It also made me think that it probably would have been loads easier, and far more substantial, if I had just done the readings in the first place.
Whooda thunk?
Oh well, guess that means I just have to start actually working in college. I've gone two years without needing to, but apparently those days are behind me.
