    I love writing papers. It's one of the things I miss most about college. I'm weird.

    At it's not nursing papers, or worse, nursing management.

    See? Life could suck a whole lot worse.

    My trick to writing papers is that I take the grading sheet and go by the rubric. It's ensures the most.

    I write for a living - 5 days a week, 7.75 hours a day. And strangely enough I enjoy it.

    I produce documentarion for a computer software company and there's a certain amount of satisfaction in translating the technospeak of the specification into plain English for our users to understand.

    Girl, I love writing papers. Starting them is always daunting, but once I start I get pretty stoked out. I'd be more than willing to help you pick a topic, if you want.

    What does the assignment say?

    Oh lord, I used to have to do technical writing (I was a pr account exec.) and I couldn't stand it. I loved my job, but hated the tech clients we'd get, 'cos that would mean I'd have to do endless research so I could use proper jargon. It blew.

    uhg. I actually miss college. Except writing papers. I had to sit down and FORCE myself to do it. But at the end I was usually proud of my work.

    Ok, get back to work!!!

    What's an example paper? Just like a sample of work on any topic? A proof-read free-write?

    All I know is I don't like deadlines! I can write an aiight paper, but haven't had the experience (yet) of doing it frequently. Imma brand new freshman as of 4 weeks ago, and an alternative hs drop out. Even tho I'm 22. It also takes me way too long, cuz I have to be all perfect and yet not pompous. I admire ppl that rush thru papers and just hand em in.

    OTOH, I passed out of Eng 101 and 102, so I'm all happy about that shit.

    An example is like explaining something to someone ie: For example.

    Ugh. I'm halfway through a paper for my history of astronomy class and I've plateaued. I know where I want to go with the paper and what I'm going to say but I just can sit and FOCUS on typing out the w o r d s. I'm on SW instead.

    I'm done with English until grad school(which I'm only a soph, so I got a while)! weee! lol

    I wrote a couple pretty good papers last year. One on Walmart and one on abstinence-only sex ed in schools. My Walmart one was pretty fun to research. They have a lot of not-so-legit stuff that goes on with them and it was interesting digging up all the dirt.

    I remember in my Comp 1 class, our teacher made us write a paper defining an abstract term. I did "self".
