Posted April 21, 2015 DAE notice they write a whole essay thinking it is good only to do a final read and figure out it is complete crap. Just thought I finished a 7 page single spaced essay and now have to re do it. Due on Thursday, thought I was being smart and finishing early. That plan is gone now, there goes any time I had set aside to play GTA.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have anyone proof read it as you write it? END OF LINE -- Project Deep Freeze Build Log -- Quote me so that I always know when you reply, feel free to snip if the quote is long.

Posted April 21, 2015 Author I believe you mean "bane" of your existence. Do you use an outline? Multiple drafts? Do you have anyone proof read it as you write it? Outline yes, multiple drafts somewhat, I have the multiple save files. I just write it and try and edit as I go then go back and do the final edit and read through a few days later if I can. Nope never have someone proof read it, don't know of anyone who could, most people who would be willing are not the brightest to put it nicely.

Posted April 21, 2015 Author Let's just say that Animal Farm is...special...It's brilliant, but it's not exactly a fun read tbh... Read it in grade 10, at that point marks were something super important to me. For that book I read about 75% of it and quit, read a TLDR online and did the test. Did well but not my normal mark. That book put the final nail in the coffin so to speak when it came to english. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted April 21, 2015 Let's just say that Animal Farm is...special...It's brilliant, but it's not exactly a fun read tbh... I read it in 5th grade, seemed fine then, though I might not remember whatever bits you're talking about that made it less fun.

Posted April 21, 2015 Author Aww... sad to hear that. Not sad, hated it before since it was my worst subject and the lower than my overall average marks. Soon as I am done uni I think I will never do another essay or anything similar. I really hope I don't anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
