why are the prompts written like that?

 Hey y'all:), it is 9:15pm and I almost took a 0 for todays blog post but then my friend reminded me and I thought that was so sweet so here I am...trying to remember what happened in class. We didn't do a bell ringer today, instead we looked over our thesis statements from yesterday and decided whether they were fame or shame. Mine was actually almost a fame, but the position I chose wasn't clear which was only obvious after he pointed it out. Anyways, we had to write a paragraph on if the annual Buy Nothing Day was beneficial. I wrote my thesis and for some reason when I began writing my paragraph I couldn't elaborate on my points from the thesis. I was basically stuck. I have an essay on Monday, so I'll take note of my disadvantages. I really just have to make better points. ALSOOOOOO, getting evidence 2 and elaborating more on it is lowkey hard. But I'm pretty sure it all starts in my thesis, so I'm just gonna keep that in mind while writing my essay. In my opinion, the prompts are written so dumb . Why are they making it so difficult to understand? I'm guessing that's how many people write about a topic that doesn't relate to the prompt. I like the outline he gave us for the paragraphs, cause in my old essays I'd just talk about anything that came to mind. Why didn't they teach me this already? I think more people should know about this.

last blog post.. til august

 Hey y'all, I know my last post was supposed to be the one I made giving advice, but I thought that was so lame. So, this is my real last blog post... until August cause I'm definitely gonna talk junk on here about my next teachers.  In class today, we barely did anything because he was just putting in the final final grade. I was sad, but happy at the same time. I'm happy I got one more laugh before I left the class forreal. He said I was the blog champion of the class and that took me outttttttttttt😂.  I remember I hated this class so freaking much, and it ended up becoming my favorite class of the day. With all the funny comments that were made by Mr. Rease, and my friends blowing my phone up with laughing emojis, this class never failed to put a smile on my face. I would have never thought that I'd enjoy blogging this much, and it has actually gave me some ideas on hobbies or even what I could become in the future. Updating this blog every school day was something

my partner was STRUGGLING

Spring break should have been 2 weeks. Waking up at 8 is garbage. I don't even pay attention in my first or second period, but I always know what's going on. Third and fourth period are usually >>>>>>>. Anyways, today we had to upload our sources in a folder, and the first few times Mr. Rease was explaining it like absolute trash. He gave us 10 minutes to upload everything, and I had to call my partner to see if she knew what she was doing. She didn't. So we're on the phone just complaining about how nothing he said made sense, and just trying to figure it out ourselves thennnnnn he calls my name and basically asks me if I know what I'm doing. SIR IF I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING YOU WOULD'VE SEEN MY UPLOADS😂. I'm glad he called on me though, cause I know if he didn't I would've been trying to figure it out for myself the whole class period. After he explained it the first time to me, it didn't make sense, but when he asked me to

last prompt

 Some advice I'd give to the next students coming in would simply be to practice. Seriously, if you've never practiced writing an essay in 40 minutes, it's best that you work on that and actually make time to do that. Also, work on your comprehension skills PLEASE. Because some of these passages they give are so confusing. You gotta make sure you remember all the suggestions that are given for writing an essay, cause to be honest, it's the best one I've came across so far. OHHHH and let's not forget commentary. COMMENTART COMMENTARY COMMENTARY. It's more important than I thought it was in the beginning of the year. The thesis is really the backbone of the essay too, so have it down pat before exam time. Lastly, I'd just say to take your time and don't stress. If you start practicing early, you'll be good. And before I really end this off, don't be boring in your blog. It sucks, and your partner will probably hate you. Cause when a persons blo
