.... I have to be up at 7am to work tomorrow and I am stuck awake writing a 1250 word research paper on the history of Nicholas Cage's acting/producing career. Though I have learned some pretty interesting things about him. Anyways this sux bad. Especially because I have such a short attention spaaaaaaaaaaaaaan................................................................................ ..................................................................... .............. ............................................. .................... ................................................................................... *look at the kitty* .............. ..................................... ...................... You get the idea....lol
If there is anything you will learn in college it is the art if getting things done in a crazy time frame. That and how to relate to a teachers style...dont fall into these "I didnt get along with the teacher" on a regular basis. Learn how to change and meet the goals/needs of the the prof. The roll will be a Boss in the post college world and knowing how to meet a boss on his level faster than others will be a LARGE step in getting noticed and advanced. In my jr level english class (adv. expository(sp) writing) we basicly had 3 papers a week due over fairly major works. Read over the weekend, rough draft due Mon. (3-5 pgs) and talked about the topic. On Wed. we did the checking/more talking about the focus of the papers and had to have 2-3 more pages ready. Fri. we had to turn in the final paper at 6-10pg and get the readin assign. I got to the point I could from scratch write a 6-8pg paper in 4hrs from nothing at all. A helpfull key was to do far more writing the first night but not turn all of it in. I would go in depth about ideas related on both sides as more of a note to build on after the mid week class that directed the focus of the paper. It made the next two days easier to get on track.
It was either that or some other film related topic, personally I like Nicholas Cage. So it was pretty interesting.
