Random question

Does someone here lie down to sleep at 12 maybe, but take 1 or 2 hours to actually fall asleep and those 1 or 2 hours are spent daydreaming, creating a world inside your mind with characters, settings and a complicated plot???

What people get: "What is this?"

What autocorrect fixed: "Waht si tihs?"

What is with screwed advice? I’m in high school (grade 10) and our language teacher just gave us a fifteen minutes worth pep talk about grades and school. She told us that we should try and learn honestly than cheating and that grades should not be our top priority. She told us that we should enjoy our lessons and no one’s going to remember our marks in the next ten years. We were having an online class and she was asking a question right when a classmate got disconnected, she told us she’d give all of us a minus one if we didn’t give her the name of that person within a minute.

If that isn’t the most frustrating scenario in the world, I don’t know what is. I was shocked and disappointed because of what happened. We all got a minus one because most people hadn’t even noticed and our class monitor had marked that person present because they were there for most of the period.  They give positive advice, but you’re threatening us with what you know we value. She doesn’t apply that advice to her own teaching style. Why even bother to tell us not to value grades at all?

Why can't schools teach literature in a more interesting way. I mean give us a chance to write our OWN play or poetry in the exam. Check it for grammar, check it for improvement, check it for creativity and grade it accordingly

I am so damn done writing a three page analysis on JUST ONE FREAKING QUOTE FROM A PLAY THAT WAS WRITTEN YRS AGO. I took literature as a subject to know more about the style, but that does not mean I don't want to discover my own.

A week ago I was procrastinating over writing a three page, 25 mark assignment on Malvolio's personality. Sure, he's an interesting character, but HOW THE HELL do I put it in 3 pages. One, concise, well-written page could have it all. I spent my prose writing hour for this. I have anxiety, I can't manage my tasks or life well and I am trying, but it was just too much. In the end, I didn't get time to write and there was an unused document in front of me on a separate tab with a blinking cursor once again.
