So, classes are done in exactly 6 days, and I can't help but be super excited. I've finished all of my assignments for the rest of the year, except....
dun...dun....dun........
The Killer Seminar Paper!
For those of you who haven't heard about this nightmare, let me fill you in.
It is a linguistics research paper, based on the theory of critical discourse/linguistic analysis. This probably sounds like a whole lot of nothing. Basically, CDLA is the analysing of communication, to find out what hidden messages are there. The unfortunate thing about CDLA research papers, is that there has been VERY LITTLE RESEARCH DONE. So, instead of finding a few good Internet sites, and making jot notes, and writing a paper,
I HAVE TO CONDUCT THE RESEARCH MYSELF.
This is all well and good, because I'm analysing teen magazines. My research is finished.
What's not good about it is the fact that it needs to be 20 pages long.
And I haven't started writing.
Stay tuned for the next episode of:
"Killing Me Too Damn Fast: One Girl's Journey Through CDLA."
