Welcome to my blog!
I am an English major. They say practice makes perfect so here I am practicing my writing in hopes that some day I will be perfect.
This is the world according to me.
I hope you enjoy my insight as much as I enjoy writing it.

Oh Gatsby please inspire me.
It is essay time. I have to write a 6-8 page paper and it is due in a few weeks. I have plently of time but I wanted to start working on it. Realistically speaking I am not going to finish it today. I am very stuck on it. I am surrounded by eight books (one of which is The Great Gatsby which I am writing about). We have to have at least three outside sources. I have seven. I think I will be fine but like I said I am stuck. Of course I want to to the best job I can do on this essay. What kind of English major would I be if I just half assed an essay that is worth so much of my grade? I admit I B.S. a lot of my papers. I can get away with it. I can B.S. a paper and still manage to pull a B+ or and A-. I prefer the later of the two. If I end up with anything lower than an A in this class I am not going to be happy. I did get an A on the midterm with no effort at all. I assume that I will also get an A on the final. I just turned in a paper on "One flew over the cuckoo's nest" on Friday and I am hoping for a good grade on that one as well. We will see. That was the last short paper that we have to write. The one I am writing now is the last paper that I have to write for the class. We only have three sessions left I believe? It is four weeks but we do not have class on Good Friday for obvious reasons. Until I get out of this block I am going to watch the Decorah Eagles. Have you seen them? It is simply amazing. I love watching them. It truly amuses me. ^_^
