Just Need A Hug

[reverie_maiden]

I need huge hugs today!! It's my birthday but I feel so crappy both physically and emotionally and ever since I was 13 getting older and growing up has been VERY hard for me to handle and cope with especially after I graduated from HS.

*hugs*

I have been so lonely lately and it's really getting me depressed. For various reasons the extent of my social life for a couple months now has basically been here and a few classes at a local community college, where i know no one. It's amazing what isolation can do to you. I wish I could at least cheer someone else up with some hugs!

*hugs*

*HUGE HUGS*...
if anyone has any spare, i could do with some too...

*hugs*

I just got my English paper back from my professor (via email) and I was so proud of myself yesterday for finishing it and I honestly thought I did a good job, but now it's all marked up and full of remarks on what I did wrong. I'd really appreciate a hug, if anyone could possibly give me one. I'm just really discouraged right now.

*hugs*

Thanks, Reverie_Maiden. I really appreciate it.

to you Hannah. I have a DS who is a professor of English at a university here in Canada. Generally - what were all the markings about - interpretation or grammar?

I don't know about interpretation, but there were some markings about my grammar, and there were also a lot of markings about the organization of my essay. You know, I realized today, that I hate how the school systems here in the US discourage individuality, especially in writing a paper. You're supposed to follow a certain format and never stray from that format. I'd love it if the people in charge could realize that unique writing styles are good, rather than discouraging them.

Oh, and thanks for the hugs. I really appreciate them.

*snuggles* that was one thing I learned early, figure out what style the teacher liked and cater to them. Sure, meant I lacked my own style in those assignments, but it was easier to get a good grade if I wrote a bad essay in the right "format" than a good essay in the wrong one heh.

*Hugs to all* Be well.

I know what you mean. I had a professor that dropped me a few letter grades on my assignment if my thoughts didn't match his in my papers. Once I asked for his thoughts and added them with my own all of a sudden my grade went up. Professors like that drive me nuts, but if you want to pass the classes you need to go with the flow and do what you can to get those higher grades.

 

[BigToe]

yes, it's nuts really. You're not really there to learn and improve your skills all the time so much as agree with a teacher. It's strange, and a waste of money!
