How I did it

How to finish my term paper

It took me

2 weeks

It made me

relieved!

How I did it: I just wrote the thing. A couple nights without sleep due to research, planning, and the actual drafts, and there it was. Not the best thing I've ever written but I ended up with a B+ in the class. I wish you the same luck - just keep at it.The most important step in the process was making a plan for my paper. Make sure you know the context and what your analysis will entail. Find your sources weeks beforehan… Read how I did it…

How to be forgiven

It took me

1 week

It made me

humbled

How I did it: Don't worry about defending yourself. You may have to make some moral sacrifices to do this. Sometimes you have to realize that it's more important to repair the immediate hurt you may have caused than standby any dogmas you might have. This is a difficult choice that YOU have to make, but if you really love the person it's worth it.The most important thing is to realize you upset someone or offended them, understand why… Read how I did it…

be forgiven (read all 2 entries…)

Untitled 6 months ago

It’s funny – after only days of posting my last entry, I was forgiven, at least by the most important person anyway. But at what moral and personal cost? I can rest easy now, knowing that I have been forgiven for the hurt I caused, by the accusations about my character were unjust and have not been taken back. Although I sleep easy, I feel that’s because part of me is dead. I hope it can be rejuvenated.

be forgiven (read all 2 entries…)

Untitled 6 months ago

I made a terrible mistake. We spent every day together for so long. We have jokes that no one but us will ever understand. I love you more than anyone I’ve ever known. Except for obvious reasons I could have married you, and you knew that. Even if you do forgive me, I know that our friendship is changed forever. We will never be as good of friends again, but I will always love you. The worst part is I have to go through the next three years seeing you all of the time. I didn’t want our first year of college to end like this.
