Wish I could get by with this in the English Composition class I'm currently taking for my Associates Degree. I wish someone would please explain to me how on earth I'm supposed to write a narrative essay about any event in my life that I choose within the guidelines of a formal college paper. It's simply not possible. Oops I think that was a hijack. Someone give me an H!
