I have two of three of them as a midnight snack for you, journal. First and strangemost, I picked up silverware from the empty siverware drawer and moved to place it in the full drying rack thinking that this would be putting it away. Second. I think I am witty. Third. I made my lunch. I never do that... especially not at midnight when braindead. Fourthly, I wrote a succinct essay about a topic that I'd normally care about. And managed to create a topic I cared about out of "what are the sources of conflict in the united states, ie racial differences, and tell how we have resolved them and how they have changed" I wrote about androgeny... and didnot ramble.
I have discovered the secret to writing highschool essays (perhaps any essay?)
1st, wait until midnight the night before it is due.
2nd pick a topic that you normally think alot about. This way you don't have to have new thoughts, youv'e already done the hard work.
It works like this. You state the thesis. YOu'll be to tired to be silly and ramble. You'll likeley get a good introduction taht way, if you sleepily lead into the thesis.
You'll state each point, and before you can rack your brain for obscure examples that are hard to connect, you'll forget what you were talking about and have to move on. Voila, before you know it you've covered and proved with at least one solid example each whatever information you were supposed to address. And You are so tired you'll beleive this and go to sleep. You'll get an A or B and highschool doesn't matter too much as long as you pass. Don't you dare tell me it does. The only reason to get good grades is to impress other people. Says the sleepy girl with a 3.8...
