I just wrote an exam and made a really stupid mistake. I left the exam feeling pretty good, until I talked to a couple of friends. The first question was something like, "Comment on the significance of Daisy's final message to Winterbourne in Daisy Miller." Well, somehow from this I wrote an entire paragraph on Lily's final comment to Seldon in House of Mirth - a completely different novel!!! And the whole exam I'm thinking, hmmmm, why didn't she have a question on Daisy Miller? I can't even understand how this happened. I'm in shock. So I went and got drunk at Swiss Chalet and passed out on the train. |

I made a mistake last week like that! I was supposed to write a research paper on the "Suzuki Method", so I wrote 5 pages on the music teaching method. then on the day I was supposed to turn it in I found out I was supposed to research the Suzuki Method for acting, not teaching music. I was so mad. |

Why wait to get drunk after the exam? The real trick is to get drunk during the exam! Let me tell you, a water bottle looks the same with either water or vodka. Just don't breathe too hard, people might smell it. Reading your drunken answers and funny handwritting is priceless. |

drinking before an exam is actually a good idea. i dont mean completely hammered but slightly shit faced is quite relaxing. it also lets you be a little less inhibited so youll feel more confident with leaving your first answer as opposed to erasing/changing what you wrote. the hard part is finding out how many drinks it takes to get in the optimal buzz zone =p |

Talisin fails to mention that it was a color by numbers test. Simple equations that equate to 7 means you color the area in red, Talisin, not green. Bad Talisin! I've done some similar things to that, though, Princess... Not so much in a literature-based class, though, as I took more sciences. There's nothing quite like hand-writing out a whole bunch of C-code on an exam, only to later realize you did something completely different from what was asked. I love essays, though, as you never really need to have done all your work in order to sound like you have. I passed so many upper-division history classes without reading a single book, simply because I can type a lot and sound like I know what I'm talking about. (Many of you can attest to the typing a lot by some of my forum posts... as for the sounding like I know what I'm talking about, I dunno... Jury may still be out on these forums about that. heh) I'm glad I'm done with college now, though, since I was getting pretty tired of the kid's table shit and have wanted to start a career for awhile now. And now I work for an awesome company called PacifiCorp :D |

Yea, generally 85% of any research paper is bullshit anyways, at least for me, thats what most professors expect anyways probably. |

Only way to efficiently write paper is to wait 3 hours before the time it's due. At this point, you can type 10 pages per hour under pressure. |

I can type 10 pages an hour when not under pressure, so how many would I type under pressure? |
