"Keep in mind," I wrote (and circled). I also made bullet points for things to remember when writing the next essay in the class.
- Title
- Historical present tense - ask yourself "so what?"
- Beware of generalizations
Here is a sample page of those "notes," taken on September 26th, 2007:
- I made up a new name for a character that I thought was funny: Dr. Chadwick Breasticus.
- I tried drawing some eyes, one being severed and floating through the air with a small trail of blood behind it.
- I drew the face of some man with Elvis sideburns, his chin and face starting to melt away for reasons unknown to me. He looks down and screams, "My FACE!!"
- A character drawn up to the chin is completely naked with a small censor covering his private parts. A *POOF* is coming out of his butt, along with little lines to indicate a vicious fart. In fact, it is so vicious that I draw someone's head literally being torn off by the force of the flatulence.
I really do learn a lot in the class - many valuable lessons that will help me grow as an adult and become a stronger intellectual. If Dr. Chadwick Breasticus and vicious, decapitating farts won't help me in the real world, then I don't know what will.
