WHAT THE HECK!!!
You know that scary proposal thing for my scary class??? (no) Well I made it through said class, AND I think my professor really liked the paper that I wrote!!!
I got a 98 flipping percent which is freaking really good (I think) for English and especially for my professor, because he's really smart and if HE LIKED IT then I'm really proud of myself.
Man. And I really did rush the end part because I was tired of trying to meet the 15 page limit, and I was sure he was going to be like [someone else's name] interesting paper, bye, but NO, he said it was a "stunning paper," and that "it is one of the best pieces of writing I have read at the undergraduate level," AND that it was a pleasure to read -- NO WAY!!!
Anyways, I'm just really happy to have gotten some validation, it felt really good and I'll probably ride this academic high for the rest of my life because in like two years I'm likely never going to write another paper again. Maybe that's sad. I'm scared one day I'll be working a horrible 9-5 and I'll never pick up a book or write anything ever again. Oh, I'm actually really scared about that. Writing here (even if it's pretty crap and nonsensical and whatever) helps me remember how to write and what writing is like. It feels so good to have a bunch of jumbled-up illegible junk in your brain and then somehow make it make sense by putting it on paper.
I hope now I can maybe ask him to be a reference for a possible mlis application next (next?) fall. Even though I didn't say like a single word in the entire 4 months I had class. I'M SORRY OKAY, I COULDN'T DO IT. But I did try!!! I'm only glad I didn't miss a single class, I'd be so sad if I did. Thankfully he seems to be one of those professors that gets it :,)
Alright, alright, I've got to go. I only cared about this class so my other professors could all give me 50s and I'd still be content. Heehehee, I'm so so proud.
Oh okay wait, this is future me and I have to show a video of my sister's kitty who really likes face pets :-)
