Yeah, you'd have guessed by now. It's mid-sem break that doesn't exactly feel like one. Can't imagine if that assignment was REALLY REALLY due today. THE original deadline for that essay was today, indeed. But THANK GOD, some people incl yours truly were smart enough to ask for a BIT more time. I mean, is three days gonna hurt my lecturer so bad? It's supposed to be a break! And I bet those exchange student friends of mine are having fun in the islands while I am sitting here blogging about how horrid my assignment and break is.
Perhaps you could say they write better than us. Better than me? I think so, too :) They can just ramble with their oh-so powerful and impeccable English. Like, really. Proof? Oral presentations. Listen to them and trust me, I feel to a certain extent, small. But thankfully, those that I met this sem are quite humble. Well, like I said, at least they're willing to talk to me :) That is more than enough. THE VERY FACT that they actually TALK to you.
You know what? Perhaps I should say: Read their essays. I read ONE last sem and I was totally blown away by her expression... but I spotted ONE or TWO tiny 'blemishes' as the Brits put it. HEE. Then again, ONE or TWO is excusable.
I have to think of what words to use so that it actually suits perfectly in the context of my sentence. It's so HARD! Like when you want to paraphrase. Gosh, esp when you're writing abt something that's so technical. *faints* Sometimes, you just tell yourself ENOUGH! ENOUGH! Yet you know that you have to get it DONE.
OK! Back to your essay!
