So it's not that bad, really... compared to the actual class when I took it a few semesters ago.

A 3-6 page paper using one of the Rhetorical Criticism methods. Easy right?

Not so. I'm having issues selecting an artifact and the criticism to use.

As of right now, I'm thinking of using Beyonce's cong "If I were a Boy" and using the Feminist Criticism....

I just can't seem to get started... Any thoughts?

ive never written something like this, but when i am stuck and dont know how to start writing an essay i start by convincing myself that this version i am writing is just for eyes only, then i dont get scared of writing something horrible then at least i have something to work with

What kind of feminist criticism? Any particular theorist you're using?

Feminist criticism? Ugh. I hated my fem lit class... found it to be a load of tripe.

Iconised Ghost-- where abouts in NZ are you?

Aww I'm sorry thats going so poorly for you . I wish I could help but I'm an Accounting and Finance gal, if you needed help on your tax return I could help you

GOOD LUCK!

bliss stick in there...i saw your facebook status and got kinda worried. first of all, when's it due? if not for a while, take a break. if it's due in the morning take a break anyway. rest your brain for a while.

Haha, I love the "Easy, right?" line... I mean, I guess 3-6 pages sounds easy... but the rest of your post is completely foreign to me. Would you like any help on yeast genetics or membrane trafficking or protein structures?

And, in fact, trying to keep myself down to 6 pages or less about ANYTHING sounds pretty hard... especially if it's supposed to be double spaced, ugh. I had a group project last semester, 5 people to write a 20 page (single-spaced) paper... I'm still amazed we managed to chop it down enough! I think we had like 0.5 inch margins and 10pt font by the end, lol.

Aucks you?

I can't really make any Auckland jokes... I'm in Tokoroa.

Lol tokoroa sad to say ive never been there, do you still get the sulfur smell there?

No, but we do smell the Kinleith mill on the odd occassion. The sulpher is more before you get into RotoVegas.
