My schoolyear ends on 20th on June. Subtract the last week, when nobody comes to school, and I have only 3 more weeks of studying! Good thing is I have a very good situation at everything and don't need to work my head off, unlike some of my colleagues. This year was tiring, very tiring for me. How joy it ends in a month!

While converting a guest room into an office, I found an old gem that I had preserved.

When I was pursuing my undergraduate degree, there was a professor named Dr. Brian Morley. Dr. Morley was an awesome teacher, but I noticed every time that he went home he would carry a HUGE stack of papers, obviously more than a single man could grade. Now, all of the significant essays and homework projects received meticulous grading, but the smaller 2-page papers in each class? People became suspicious that perhaps he did not really read them. And so, I was drafted to find out.

Now you see, most people stick "hidden" text into their papers, like, "if you read this, I will buy you a coffee." Not me! I wanted to go for the gold, to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt whether Dr. Morley reads all of his papers!

And so, I wrote a normal 2-page essay, and added a third page like so:

If you are having trouble reading that, it is:
MY PLAN TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD
1: Tie up Dr. Morley
2: Distract Mormons with Tied Up Dr. Morley
3: Steal Golden Plates from Mormons
4: Trade Golden Plates for Cheese
5: Give Cheese to the U.N.
6: Take Over World

When I got my paper back, the grade was as follows:

And thus, Part 2 of the experiment: I showed him the paper. Dr. Morley laughed so hard that he bent backwards into an L-shape. From that day forward, every paper of mine that he graded had extra comments involving the text. I miss being in his classes.

Enjoy college! Once you fit into the college groove, you'll do fine.

I hatehatehate teachers that breath down your neck.

Science Teacher, you fail at life.

Those who are graduating very soon, I wish you best of luck with it all...sometimes I wish I was still at school, to be honest. Maybe in some ways it was easier then...

Partymember · 05-27-2008, 03:42 PM

we got about three or four weeks left. I've got stupid amounts of homework to do between now and then.

LAME!
