as a writing major, i cannot tell you how many of these expereinces we have had. we were taught so well how to write and i find it embarassing and disturbing the way some people write. im sitting in a creative writing class, and this girl reads to us a FICTION story.. about a time when she was little and got the stud of her earing stuck in her ear and mommy pulled it out. There was nothing more to the story than simply that, and besides her terrible grammar, i could not beleive that out of everything she's experienced, she thinks of that to retell and steal from her real life for fiction.... in college writing classes, my god... people dont know how to spell, how to write a freaking sentence... i feel sorry for them, and yes we sound pretentious but ridgewood was fucking great. i wonder what a college professor feels reading these papers if we feel that way reading them. interesting. sorry such a long response but the same thing wraps around my mind forever at this school and i just cant beleive it.
