I got them.
I got them school work blues.
Man fuck school books. Usually I love my college books but this business one is a piss of unbearable. Argh. Fuck online classes, I hate this one.
My only assignment for the week, besides discussion with the class on a forum (-.-), is fucking 1 question with a part a and b. And guess what? I gotta turn that into a 1 page MINIMUM paper. Single spaced. 10 point font. 1 inch margin.
Sure, your thinking, "OpZ, quit being a bitch and making a HW thread about some stupid shit, and just do your work, it can't be that hard."
No...its not hard. It's stupid and frustrating. Why? Because the question doesn't have enough substance to talk a whole page about, IMO.
"Many people say that businesspeople (Typing that was one word is foreign as hell to me)do not do enough for society. Some students choose to go into the public sector instead of business because they "want to help others." However, businesspeople say that they do more to help others than nonprofit groups do because they provide jobs for people rather than giving them charity, which often precludes them from searching for work. Furthermore, they believe that businesses create all the wealth that nonprofit groups distribute.
a. Can you find some middle ground in this debate that would show that both business people and those who work for nonprofit organizations contribute to society and need to work together more closely to help people?
b. Could you use the concept of Adam Smith to help illustrate your position?"
WTF SON. I'm sry, but two yes or no questions right there. I typed it to help myself think about it more too tho...so yea...I'm just posting it now. A few thoughts are nice and some things i've talked about. Bout half a page done now. Due in an hour and a half -_-. Blah blah....so much shit, and I keep repeating so much. I really don't like the questions. Very boring.
Edit:
I realize its ONE PAGE. I just don't like what the question is. One page is way more than I'm really willing to say about it. Considering I have my opinions stated in the first and second paragraph. I mean, there is only so much I can say about that specific thing before it gets redundant. -_-....

Yea I hate online classes. I am currently taking two Sociology classes online, and the books are unbearable to read. All the homework questions require like ten pages of agonizing reading too.

you havent learned to bs your way through those '1 page minimum' requirements while you were in high school?

So far I've come up with 3/8 a page of bs and 2/8 a page of substance.
-_-....I still have 3/8 to go....
And I'm stuck. I've even outlines Adam Smith's whole fucking ideas.
|
18 More lines to go for the first page, I'm going to have to write a little on the second because I forgot to ask my teacher about paragraphs. I can't get my word to stop double spacing automatically between paragraphs. I wrote half of it on my lap top, but my lap top has word 07 -_-.....

Cry more.
Seriously, get over it, it's one goddamn page. You write one page for an entire week, holy crap, and you're whining.

Rawr. Read more, I was also whining about the shit book choice by my instructor. My instructors shit syllabus, and online classes. Rag on those too.
I'm not really crying over writing a page a week. What the fuck if I don't agree that there is a middle ground about them doing things for society?
Edit:
And I typed that MAINLY to fucking help me get into a better thought mindset. I felt like ranting to get my head going. Read the end of it. Ass hole.

It's all about giving the professor what they want. If it's really that difficult then everyone else will struggle. Otherwise, grit your teeth and bear it. Not much more you can do.

It's really two pages given the single spacing and 10 point font (2.3 pages maybe)

And the margins have all been adjusted.
Before talking about the length of the paper, I wish they'd think about the question.

Isn't 1 inch margin standard?
|
It is, but in comparison to my other report I'm doing, I had to change it. My Political Science professor preferred a 1.25 inch, which was also explicitly stated on his syllabus. And in my English grammar class, typing essays was actually against the rules. So...I haven't really typed many essays since I've been out of High school.
Edit:
But this isn't an essay, or a term paper. So...I'm just annoyed.
|
you can up the size of your periods to add another few lines, generally this has been working with my uni papers...although this ones still 1000 words short Grrrrr
|
I just need three more lines and I'm done. Like I said, I was just venting. I still find the topic...retarded. Just...I'm done. I decided I'd mention Lowes/home depot/Habitat for Humanity/Hurricane Katrina/Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation/Red Cross/Aids in Africa.
-_-

Look up and use real life examples to support your claims. Descriptions of these examples will fill up space, and claims are stronger when backed by evidence.
|
Ahh....I feel better. Done.
I want to thank everyone who read this, and apologize. It was just a rant to let me open my head up a little more AND you know, if a person stays at something for too long a person is not going to think at their best.
|
dude you just wrote about a page right now complaning about your homework assignment so obviously if it has enough substance for you to write a 1 page rant about it im sure you can also handle the one page assignment about it.
