The One With Raining Assignments
June 6, 2007
In the midst of waiting for the 7th Harry Potter book to come out, I find myself stuck and desperately struggling under a BIG pile of assignments. Like REALLY big pile of assignments. (No metaphor or hyperbole are needed cuz its seriously damn BIG).
Well, the problem doesn’t lays in the magnitude and the size of the sum of the separate parts of the assignments ( I mean you can hit me with dozens of itsy bitsy assign anytime, I don’t care) but it’s more like the quality of the assign. Let me classified it into few classes.
- Grade A - The best of the best. Can cause potential sleepless nights and perpetual migraine. (Some claimed to suffer from constipation from it). If left untreated, it will leads to permanent traumatized effect on the brain of the sufferer (the unfortunate group members) and an even serious damage on the coursework marks.
- Grade B - Side effects include indigestion and constant sweating. But if efforts are put into curing it (in other word, DOING the assign), the sufferer will see a better day soon. But cure is not 100% guranteed even if the sufferer take the medication accordingly. (gulp)
- Grade C - Last minutes material. Perfect to be put aside for a game of DotA without a single feeling of guilt (Heck I bet they don’t feel guilty, it’s DotA after all, I mean do they feel guilty when eating?) Example are English assign and stuff with similar nature.
Well, so what’s so great about this semester? Beside the boring subjects and the usual crap, guess what? I can classified almost all my assign at the top bunk of the chart (either Grade A or Grade B or mostly somewhere in between). If that does not giving you a reason to cheer and pop open the champange, why not throw in some incredibly boring lecturers, sulky mid terms, and perpetual society stuff. (Yipee!! My life is just soooo GREAT! Love it to every bits!)
So beside fantasizing about the ability to trade my life with someone else, I find myself preocupied with assign, assign and yea… more assign!! I no longer memorize the facts and terms in the textbooks, instead i find myself memorizing the due dates for each single assigns. (That’s like totally crazy man! But trust me… words are easier to be memorized compared to dates! So write the dates out in words.)*
Now my blog had become a station for me to churns out my hatred toward the evil assignments! (I wish Defense Against The Dark Arts could provide me with a defensive spell to burn and obliterate all the evil assignment.) And people who read my blog will get suck into frenzy and started asking me not to kill myself over assignments or am I actually having constipation because I couldn’t decide on which product to use to study on consumer behavior. (The answer is NO!! No !! nooooo!!).
So when people ask me what is the best and most memorable part of doing an assignments is, I will proudly and indignantly answer them, "When you finally complete and hand them in to the lecturers! That is the best damn thing, when you kiss their sticky ass goodbye"
Haih… but now I will be stuck with their smelly asses for a loooong time.
*Results not guranteed. Do not try this at home!
