The same as forever and always at least until I'm done

Hey guys, sorry I haven't written for awhile. I've been trying to catch up on school work and it's not looking too good right now. I have so many papers to do and I have to study. I  also have to do community service for one of my classes. So as soon as I get myself on track I will be able to post more stuff.

How Class was

Okay I had done my presentation and it was bad. I forgot and mixed up some of the things I'm suppose to say because of my nervousness and I had left my outline at home. so I think my grade will be horrible for the presentation. I am way behind in all my works.
You always have to be on top of things when you are an English major not like me. The semester had just started and I already owe 3 papers and an outline.
I still have other assignments to do for other classes, till next time.

Oral presentation número UNO

Okay I have 18th century lit class today
And I'm suppose to give an oral presentation on John Dryden.
I only picked him because I love his last name Dryden. Doesn't
That last name sounds interesting? I am nervous but I will get through this.
I will let you know how it went.

Upsides on majoring in English
You get to read many interesting books
And learn about interesting writers.

Downsides of it all
You have to finish everything on time
You have to understand the literature
You have a lot of papers due every week.
Writing is crutial for an English major.
You must learn to love writing.

Introduction please...

Hey guys this is my life. My major is English and I go to
Nyack college. This is my second semester there I transferred
And changed my major from liberal arts to English a few months ago
Right now I am taking 18th century literature, global literature, English 102, biology
And one religion course since my minor is actually biblical studies.
This blog will be the upsides and downsides of being an English major.

Downsides:
I have at least 2 papers to do each week
Oral presentations are mandatory
You have to learn to love to read (for me this is an upsides)

Okay so far there isn't really much of an upside to it
Except my advice is try to take all the English classes first.
And also if you know you are going to do really good in a subject
Take the class. Just make sure you pass it.
That is all for tonight I have to start on my English papers.
