my paper is done! now i just need to write another by friday!
#the next one should be both easier and harder#easier because it's just a personal essay so no external sources requires#required*#harder because it's for my grammar class and the prompt is to reflect on our experiences learning formal grammar in the past#which like. im not sure yet but i might just write about how i didn't pay any attention in english class like. ever lmao#ik they taught us formal grammar in like k12 or whatever i just literally never paid attention or took notes#it's part of gifted kid syndrome i think bc i read a lot of books and just kinda figured out a lot of complicated grammar rules on my own#and then i scored well on tests and then no one ever felt the need to actually teach it to me#to this day like. i can tell i've had way less formal instruction in writing than most of the other kids in this class#and yet im also a better writer than them because i've done way more actual writing#i just kinda figured out all the shit that they have extensive notes on & know the words for#this is the exact opposite of how i am in music classes lmaoooo#so much theoretical knowledge and yet im a pretty mediocre singer#we all have our strengths and weaknesses <3#bri babbles
