Are we talking high school or college XD Cuz I'm old too either way.
Also yay people on late to chat with! *hugs you all*

If I went back it'd be for a Master's and more actual craft time than school time. My advisers were shite and didn't tell me to take advantage of all the outside of class stuff and afterward I had practically no experience other than bookwork x.x

Ehhh well, I'm in Literature so this is going to be what I could be doing for the rest of my life. Unless I become a teacher, which I may end up doing, and so I would end up checking papers rather than having to write them. I remember back in high school my adviser, a Science teacher, was checking papers during free time and I didn't really have anyone to talk to so I hung out with her for a while. She'd say to me that checking papers was a lot harder than writing them, and just looking at the other class' research papers made me believe her P:

Honestly if I were still in high school I wouldn't be this wound up about the introduction XD I really want to impress my professor, but I'm honestly not sure how to begin properly. I've been rambling so I have 1k words in my doc but it's hardly submittable P: I need to have a working essay of 1750 words by Monday.

Eughhhhh.

Goood luck nanufaice!

And Lag don't stress!! That is the key. First paper's are big but they are NOT the last paper. Write from the heart, write what you know and it will come across. All my writing teachers loved me in college. Just gotta love what you do and they'll see it.

Now I want some canned peaches :c
Good luck, by the way! I was scared too whether I'd get accepted or not, but here I am :v

Ahhh I hope so ; w ; I guess I'll do what I can and revise later. Not much use in stressing out over every single word. Still, it's pretty pressuring > - <

I don't want to remember about writing papers. Too long and too annoying. The most annoying part is that it always came with 4hours+ exams ...
Don't worry though, if it's a just a first draft you can definitely revise later :)

I got most of my experience through internships turned summer jobs. I've been quite lucky in that department.

That is great, kuuki! Wish I'd been so lucky :( Again, crappy advisors.

I had no advisors XD
Like, at all. I was doing correspondance school at the time and had not much if at all in terms of guidance and such.
I'm just sometimes really lucky. Or crazy. Or both.

I never got to go to college. I figured I'd think about it if I ever decided what I wanted to do because I didn't want to waste my time and money. .___. but now I just draw for a job so I don't think that's going to happen unless I get bold and try to actually take art classes. (which scares me cause friends I have say that the art schools around here rarely accept anime style artists and I don't think I could handle the harsh critiques since the ones they do accept seem to get picked on. ;A; )

ahaha hearing about papers and exams makes me glad I'm done with them.

Good luck with your paper tho Lag. ;u; <3
And good luck getting accepted Nankuii <3
