    The Con of An English Major.

    Papers. Papers, papers, papers.

    People generally tell me, "Well...at least you're improving your writing." They can never understand how worn out wrists gets writing numerous notes for an English class, the fatigue your fingers get wearing down hundreds of computer keys to finish an exercise due mere hours away!

    I must have picked the wrong semester to be an English major, because all I'm taking is English classes, with the exception of a General education course that requires a paper every week. It gets so frustrating when my free time is reduced because I literally have to turn in a paper every day. I thank the heavens that my body still functions from the demands of my professors.

    There was really no other major I could fulfill. The path I took was...inevitable.

    your a horrible lier lol. ive spent the last 2 weeks trying to beat out your damn high scores at the mag. you cant be having so little free time cause every time i get close to your score, you set some new ground breaking point total that reduces me to tears. some of your scores just make me weep for mercy.

    if you can do all those english papers and beat the crap out of all those games then damn man, you deserve a medal.

    as for writing, i cant do it for more then 30 minutes without my hand becoming inoperable. no way i could take a full semester of english heavy work, that would just crush my brain from all the knoweldge intake.

    Thank you Ωbright for the sig fix!

        Shhh! You'll alert the gaming calvary, and my scores may be overtaken AGAIN!

        Okay, I'll admit I have more free time than I thought, but usually, if I'm at the arcade or whatnot, it's generally a way of procrastinating and stalling on my homework.

        As for you, Exo, what made you decide upon an English major?

              go to the mag, keep the default skin and you will find games. ive made it my lifes mission to dethrone bwire but it really is just a cover up for my procrastination. ive played nearly all the games and im getting good at a few, some i really like and play them too much. it really is a good way to blow time.

                    I found a game Im fairly good at...lol

                    What size is your monitor Bonanza? I have a small 14" or 15" and I have to play that one game on full screen and I can still barely see the tiny dots...

                        my monitor is 20ish and it has a god forsaken black line of dead pixals near the top half and a not so identical line near the bottom. this will be the first thing i replace if i ever make money. maybe a nice flat screen in my distant future.

                          No wonder youre getting all those freakish scores, everything is much bigger

                            my monitor is huge and it isnt helping me worth a damn. its only when i keep it at its opening size that im able to get higher scores in some of the games.
