English Blog #5

Hello Again,

Well, I finished my essay and wah wah wah. I was a little upset because I had stayed up all night to do the research and finish my essay only to have slept through the class. Being and architecture student I don't like the idea of all-nighters. Plus, I had finished my essay a couple hours before I had to be up to go to my class, so I decided it was a good idea to get some shut eye before I went to class. Even though I am a heavy sleeper and wont get up for anything when I'm in a dead sleep, I thought setting every alarm possible would be enough, IT WAS NOT! I ended up sleeping five hours instead of the intended two and slept through my class. I was so upset because I could have slept for nine hours instead and had the same result. LOL. Oh well, I guess it happens to everyone. The good part is that my professor was understanding and I was able to hand in my essay on time. I guess I wont be doing me essays last minute anymore but we all say that and it still happens. The only thing is I have one more absence and then I'm out, so I'm crossing my fingers hoping this wont happen again.

Signed,
Yours and Mine Deep Do-Do

  1. Hi Ashlee,

    As much as I like these last two posts, they are both a little short and they don't exactly get into what I'm looking for with these blogs. The one that mentions stereotyping is certainly closer, but I'd like you to think about what a stereotype is. I don't think each of us can have our own stereotype. We can certainly each have our own opinions, but an opinion isn't necessarily a stereotype.

    Oh, and about your absences, you only have 2 so far, and you are allowed 3 before it affects your grade. You'd have to miss quite a few more classes to be "out" as you say, so I wouldn't worry.

    And yes, we all say we won't do work last minute, and yes, many of us still do it last minute. As you continue in your educational career, you will find that it becomes harder and harder to not do things last minute because there are always other things to do. As a PhD student, I find that I have to do most things last minute because that's literally the only time I have to do them.

    So, keep up with the blogging, but get them a little longer. You may even want to check out some of the other blogs, make some comments, start a conversation with someone, etc. Even me. You can always comment on my blogs, and you can always write about me.
