Ack, sorry, didn't get an indicator for this comment. I did, actually, and she doesn't care. I'm afraid I was a bit too incredulous that she'd never heard of Oscar Wilde, and now she's wary of me. ::shrugs:: Oh well. I got an A, anyway, so it wasn't a complete loss, you know?
LJ is a bastard. Plain and simple. And, no, I didn't. ::agog:: What's up?
Nope. I wanted to vomit. And I suspect it was one of those things where they couldn't find a teacher that actually knows the subject to fill the spot (teacher deficit, here), so they got someone who knew a verb from an adjective and sent her merrily on her way. Oscar, though. I was going to do "The Picture of Dorian Gray" for my quarterly literary analysis, but I had to change it to "Lolita", as she'd actually heard of Nabokov. Never read the book, of course, but at least she had a vague picture in her head. ::disgusted sigh::
Would you like me to send it to you? I can burn it but for some reason it just upload and download like it's supposed to. You can send your address to seanastin4ever@yahoo.com if you'd like to get a CD.
Ick! wtf? That's just...it makes me so sad it boggles my mind. I mean...Oscar friggin' Wilde. Who doesn't know him? Sometimes I hate telling people I'm from Alabama but the school I went to made sure we had the best teachers possible for our Literature programs. Unfit teachers only hurt the students. :hugs: I'm sorry you have to put up with her. I prolly would have killed her by now.
