Writing is extremely entertaining, IF it pertains to anything interesting and important to its creator. This assignment is a whole lot of nothing that I'm supposed to spit out onto a page and "submit". Submission doesn't mean anything to me except a grade. What happened to the time when writing meant something? When did it turn to minimum word counts and grammatical proficiency? When did writing stop coming from the heart and start coming from the endurance of a wrist. Why did it take this turn? Writing where has you gone and why can't anyone find you?
It's people like Julia Tillinghast-Akalin who make writing a repetitive task rather than a creative experience. Julia is a dictator rules over her oppressed students whom follow seeking a good grade rather experience writing personal and interesting memoirs. She has oppressed our people for the last time! Revolt I say, to the students from whom Julia demands perfection, to the students who have a heavy workload every Monday night and can't get their blogs up in time, to the students who go to bed early and wake up later and can't comment on other blogs in time, to the students who have 89's rather than the necessary 88 to do rewrites, to the students who could give two shits about the rules for structuring a conversation, and finally to the students who hate the concept of writing to begin with. Her reign as ENGL 1106 teacher is over! From now on I suggest a new set of rules that will run the classroom.
- Anyone can submit a Blog on a day convenient to them.
- Anyone can do a rewrite if they want to!
- Anyone can comment on Blogs within 1 week after they have been posted.
- Anyone can talk however they want, without structuring of the conversation.
- Anyone who doesn't want to write doesn't have to; you'll just get a C+.
These changes are a means to an end of the Julia Tillinghast-Akalin regime. These changes will bring order to a system which is obviously in disarray. Hopefully, these changes will make a positive impact on the disgrace that is English 1106.

YEAAAAAAAAH YOU TELL EM MAN!!!!!!!
