In-class essays can burn in hell
I'll just be over here simmering in resentment at my midterm and the teachers who expected us to write 6-10 pages of well-phrased details in an hour and fifteen minutes.
My first essay was great, but I only got the first paragraph and a very, very rough outline for my second because I ran out of time. The problem was not that I didn't study enough or that I wasted time, because I studied really well, had great notes, and was writing the entire time. I didn't even look up at the clock because I was afraid it would waste time which was, probably, a big mistake. I just physically could not write any faster. If anything, I was over-prepared. I had too many details to give them, which is exactly what they asked for, but still. There is no way I can get a good grade on this test. And I'm kind of at a loss as to how to prepare better for next time, because I did everything they told us to do in studying. I literally wrote "I'm so sorry" in giant letters in my blue book because I couldn't think of anything else I could do to make up for the colossal fuck-up that was my second essay.
I'm sorry for complaining so much. It's my fault I didn't use my time wisely enough and it's just a test. I suppose I'll get over it eventually. I'm just really pissed off that I did everything right and there's no way I can salvage my grade on the test. Fuck.
