I think I wrote the best paper ever last Wednesday. I didn't turn it in until today, but even as I was writing it I thought "Damn is this good!" and turns out I was right.
I went to meet with my professor today. We were supposed to have fifteen minute interviews with him and he was supposed to read our papers so we could turn in the corrected versions tomorrow before break. I went in after waiting for a few moments, he read my paper, and I was out of there in TWO MINUTES!!!!
But that. That doesn't mean so much. What shows I really have a great paper is that I was asked to make FOUR changes to it. Two of them I forgot to put in the page number after quotations, one of them was to add the word "also" and the last was to add the word "insensitive". And then he told me I had a good paper, and then he repeated himself and said it was a REALLY good paper.
FINALLY!!
Now, where's my reward for being such a brilliant English major??
I think they're probably keeping my reward money with the money they are going to start paying me at McDonalds in order for me to GIVE a shit about customers, or pretty much anything there whatsoever. The $5.70 that I'm making pays for my uniform, my shoes, and my gas to get to work.
But Fuck McDonalds.
I wrote a great paper and I can't even enjoy it because people are shitheads.
