Never Thought It'd Ende Up Like This...

Between recent panic attacks and mental breakdowns, I am surprised to announce that the only thing keeping me sane--my only stability--is my school work. My assignments. That all have a due date. The only consistent thing in my life right now. Wow.

Anyhoo, assignments: I have a blog due =]

Field Guide
pgs 120-126
First off, this book is my Bible. I always have it open during assignments, of course, but I believe that I will use it as a reference for my writing long after Mister Andy is gone. The Dawson's Creek was an excellent example of an evaluation/review. I didn't use the same organization for my review (there were two to pick from), but it was nice to see an example from the other side of the spectrum. Personally, I think I would have connected more with the evaluation if I had actually WATCHED Dawson's Creek, but the paper certainly did give me a good idea of what the show is about. It still sounds corny... but I'm glad that Leever pointed out that they were all goody two shoes. He's right, in light of the problems the students faced, they could have resorted to more negative ways of expressing themselves. Still sounds corny.
pgs 646-649
First thought: "hippiesque" is the coolest word ever.
Papers like this remind me of the Skinner experiments on Classical Conditioning (the salivating dog experiment). Mostly because I'm salivating lol. The review was impressive--Forrest was extremely informative and detailed--but I can't get over how amazing this establishment sounds! How are we, as english students, supposed to appreciate the review when we can't get past the company itself?! Sigh.
pgs 655-658
Omg... he misspelled Voldemort. And I caught it. I'm a freak.
The first sentence, btw, brill.
Being a Harry Potter freak, I really enjoyed this paper. Although, I'm having trouble--I totally think of this as a review, but I'm not sure it follows the guidelines set forth in the book :/
Idk.
Alas, I must desist. I have a paper that needs its final editing.
Not to mention the other two that so, as well.
T-T-F-N!
