(lisp)"Oops! Did I do that?"(/lisp)
Yes, A-rod, you did. The highest paid player in the majors is caught cheating. Ah, A-rod! Ah, Humanity!
Anywaaaaaaaaay.... who wants to talk about today? I do!
First period was funny as usual. Everyone except Tomasz liked my college essay, which I will be posting here shortly. Second period was a sub, No Kalner :(. Third/Fourth physics was dumb. I bothered Donnie, Kirkwood, Christina and Liz. Liz is my new color guard arch rival. Fifth was a boring lunch, sixth was bonding with Carl and Lenny in the library. Carl is the my essays biggest fan, which surprises me because I didn't think he would like it. Seventh was Skinner. Eigth was Padgett and more fun that usual. We threw books at each other and went up to the library. Ninth was a sub, so double w00t for that. I just spoke to Scott and Billy the entire period. Billy made me an origami swan! I swear, he may be quiet, but he's awesome.... after school was the Kalner meeting, but Kalner wasn't there so he asked Dave and I to run it. Problem is, no one really showed up, so we left pretty quickly. Aftwards I went to Mario's with Lenny and Brian and lastly I went to the chiropractor to have my back fixed again. Yay.
Um...... I guess I'll post my college essay thing. You guys wanna read/critique it, right?
Justin Mirsky - Geneseo Essay Topic 1
What kind of injustice makes you “fighting mad”? Discuss.
Two hundred fifty words? Are you telling me I have to write an essay that will possibly decide my future in two hundred fifty words? The Constitution did not have to be summed up in two hundred fifty words, so why does this? I would say this is a little more important.
I suppose you could consider the word limit an injustice. Imagine your hopes, dreams and aspirations are crammed into a tiny capsule, sent away to someplace far away and given to a few people to examine and eventually use to determine the rest of your life. Is it possible to judge a person in fewer than two hundred fifty words?
You may be thinking to yourself, “Well, he seems kind of angry, but is he really ‘fighting mad’” I am fighting mad! Is the pen, or in this case keyboard, not a weapon of choice? I can deal a hypocritical blow by shaking my fist at the essay that I am writing. No, I will not abide by your two hundred fifty word limit! But of course, the farther along I get in the essay, the stronger its grip on me becomes as I am beginning to have fewer things to say.
I have forty-six words left to express my anger, twenty-nine by the time I finish this sentence. With these twenty-nine words I will offer my strongest argument in demonstrating this injustice - I will tell you of how the limiting of words is unfair and prevents applicants
(The essay ends here as the author decided to keep within his two hundred fifty word limit)
so uh... it's short, so tell me what you think, mmmkay?
peace and cake.
