You should be able to get by with a “C” eaglefeather, but it may depend on the curiculum there so I’m not sure. Thanks for all the good luck, I just finished a portfolio and half of a research paper so I’m where I need to be, maybe even a little ahead of the game, besides the take home final.

Hope is the thing with feathers
that perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all.I shall tell you how the sun rose,-
A ribbon at a time.Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me;
The carraige held but just ourselves
And Immortality.I really love Emily Dickenson. 🙂
Emily Dickinson actually had many love interests but her demands were high. Not only for the fact that she rarely ever left her room because of her illness and her experiences at an all girls college. She had four men that she was very interested in, including a preacher and a judge. The other two I forget. She sent them letters and a few poems that she wrote about them and they wrote her back, engaging in her game but nothing more. Emily more fanisized about a relationship with them more than anything else. On the outside they were good friends to her but in her mind they were her lovers.
I wanted to apologize, I know I created this thread and I didn’t mean to leave it hanging. Life has just gotten more complicated and busy since then. I hardly have the time to post once a week sometimes once a month. I’m glad that this thread has gone so far.
I know this is more of an East coast thing. We call the week before finals “Dead Week”. We just got our take home finals for World Lit II and I’m just about screwed >_>’ I hadn’t been reading anything for that class in the past three weeks. My own fault but his final is rediculas, even if I had been reading it would take more the set time to do it. This man doesn’t understand that we have other finals, research papers, and portfolios to do for other classes.
Well, seems that I will have to pull several all nighters for this one. Wish me luck.Thank God I’m poor, or else I’d be so deep in debt I couldn’t see daylight. Horray for working class!!
both yes and no. No because, if you mess if you have to deal with it yourself rather than your parents. Yes, because you know you have to pay for it in the end. But for a girl with 5 years under her belt my debt is low. I’ve gotten a lot of scholarships and grants, for 5 years I only owe 9,000. Not to bad. Could be lots worse.
Everything I take is for my major. But one thing I don’t have to worry about is spending my parents money, because I pay for college myself. I still have some required classes to take but other than that I’m good.
Lol, sometimes I think I go to college only for the fact that I have nothing else to do with my time *slaps forehead* But I’ll keep at it, can’t go for this long and not get a degree, that would be sad ^^
I agree, I observe at an afterschool program and many of the kids there are from broken homes and many have been abused and in every sence of the word. They don’t trust people that easily to it was hard to reach them when I first started. I kept on trying and eventually I made friends with a lot of them and they feel open enought to talk to me and tell me things, which of course mean the world to me. My childhood was easy compared to what these kids have been through.
I know, it just keeps on getting harder and harder. I had to take a lot of credits this semester to keep a scholarship that I have. I usually go to summer school every summer but I think I’ll take this summer off. I can’t do it any more. I’d rather work than go to summer school again.
I tutor some autistic kids at where I do my observations. They are the sweetest kids ever. I teach both high functioning and low functioning and people don’t realize how bright they actually are. I once saw one of my autistic kids getting picked on by regular students and I’m pretty sure I put the fear of God into that boy. I think my exact words were “If I see you doing this again to him or any other kid, your mother will cry when she sees what I’ve done to you” and gave him the good ole nazi death stare that I inharited from my dad ^^ and no, he is not a nazi, its just that me and my brother coined that look he gave us when we did something bad.
Sometimes I hate how I just decide to buy an entire series without checking it out first. Lol, it happens more often than you think, fortunately it usually turns out well. I just bought a three book series by Stephenie Meyer called The Twilight Series. Its for young adult readers but I sometimes wander around in that section of the book store. To bad it was Books A Million and their books are never where they are supposed to be ^^’ Anyway, have any of you heard or read this series, if so I’d like some feed back. I bought it a few months back but I haven’t been able to get to it yet.
