Hey /lit/, was writing college essays hard for you? Did you bullshit your way through them? Can an awful essay outweigh your good-ish grades in most run-of-the-mill state schools?

I have written at least 20 different college essays in the past 2 weeks.

I can write about anything, really. Politics, sports, music, whatever.
The one thing I can not write about to save my life is myself.

Yeah, that's the problem I'm having.

>Come on! Show the college who you are! Show them how interesting, motivated and goal-oriented you are! Go soul-searching and find something worth telling them!

And then I discover that I have no soul and that I can't tell the colleges anything they'd want to hear nor am I a good enough of a writer to embellish something that would impress them.

How do you guys write so much? I have a problem writing a lot of content.
I find if I find a documentary about the subject I can write a lot more.

Tell them about how you wake up screaming every night only to realize that the Koreans who were invading your country were only part of a dream.

I just made shit up when asked stupid questions like that, but I never really got any in college.

I'll be sure to take your advice.

I owned at high school English essays.
University essays was a different matter.

I had a GPA of 4.10 before my Lit marks came in. I got a D on the final essay so my overall mark in the class was a C+ and that fucked the hell out of my GPA. Bumped it down to 3.85 or some shit.

Moral of the story, don't take a literature class from a feminazi. I'm not saying she was to blame directly, I'm saying I despised every single fucking book she picked for us to read and hated writing every essay in that class.

Did this feminazi's surname begin with an L?

no. Mohtaram Shojania. All she would do when I actually decided to attend lectures was talk about the sexual content in whatever we were reading. And I'm sorry but hearing an obese 50+ year old woman with a mole on her face discuss sex was just fucking disturbing.

I'm great with essays, but I've been bullshitting them all my life. Only time when I took them seriously was my 7th grade English class. That teacher taught me how to really write. Only good teacher I have ever had, one of the few that I actually deeply respected.

I am exactly like this.
