and I confess...
I confess that I spent two hours last night looking through a cooking/cookware magazine instead of doing my reading for class and now I have an extra chapter to read today!! (can't wait to see Hina's comment on this.)
I also confess that this winter has been one of the weirdest that I've seen..except maybe to the really snowy one we had a couple years ago. Within the past 24 hours we've had everything from sunshine, thunderstorms, rain, and now horrible wind.
My last confession is that I'm posting in order to procrastinate more and that I really do not want to write my paper.
Last quarter I had to read an essay called "How to write nothing in 500 words". I showed parts of it to some people because I found it extremly funny--probably one of the best essays that I had to read. In the essay the author, an english proffessor, takes examples from real student essays to show what not to write in an essay.
Well, now that I'm faced with some really boring essays I've noticed a trend in how I write them.. so here is my "how to write nothing in 6 pages" :P.
1. Write in double space font.
2. Use Times New Roman or Arial on 12pt
3. Make the page margins smaller, usually the teacher doesnt notice.
4. Use a header and footer, make sure the header is long.. include everything possible such as your name, the teachers name, the assignment, the date, the class.
5. Indent the first line in paragraphs
6. Use double spaces between paragraphs.
7. Use alot of footnotes!!
and ermm thats all I can think of now. And honestly, I usually don't do this but when I have a paper like the one I have today I do. And sometimes.. just sometimes, I get away with it.
