Last night, six hours after sitting down to finish a few last things on our group project, we tried to come up with an ending. That was supposed to be the easiest part, but we were tired and sick of heart valves and had run out of words about two hours earlier. In the end, I typed up a half-assed summary and gave it to Inmate #2, our native English speaker, to fix while she was proof-reading the whole thing.
Since we really were all very tired, our project (a make-believe research proposal) now ends with the words, Our study is one of several [current studies] which seek to [clear the way to a better tomorrow, a world without war, and the perfect heart valve.] I do hope the TA has a sense of humor. Knowing him, my guess is he'll laugh and also mark it down 10 points.
