Creative & Critical Writing Class
 

I love it. Took this course for the exact reason of what I'm doing right now. Writing a "poem". People complained when he assigned this paper but I'm loving it. Basically like being giving a topical and having the weakest opponents.. lmao.

The topic he gave tonight had to involve power outages. So I'm taking the approach of it as a metaphore parallel with life. And death being the power outage. Nothing too unique, but enough to impress

word, I had to do uhh rhymin' assignment for english last yr. lmao I finished in like 4 mins, everyone took more then 2 classes to do it. was funny... i love writing and poetry parts of english. dope shittttt

^ Lol word.

It sucks though, cause they always think I plagorized. Fuck em

RV is actually good for school :)

creative writing.. was alright..but kinda gay b.c we had to do retarded assignment most of the time... i love writing tho... project were u can write ur own song...a story or soemshit..thats fun

Fuck yeah man.. I dont go to school anymore....

But I did one of my chick friends poetry assignments once for shits and giggles.....

And she got in trouble cause they knew it wasnt her work -_-

I did that too.

But she rephrased it to sound like her, too bad that ruined the poem but she still got a A I think.

I love being able to write, saves me time in English that I can use for sleep.

yeah..i had this assignment to write a song..and it was actully sick..and we had to read it in front of the class.. and i was like...i cant read this out loud..and showed it her..and hses like oh. well here..and gave me an A after reading it..but i coudlnt read it.... it had to much shit that dcoulnt be said haha..

and i had to write a story..i did it in 2 days... 18 pages :-) it was a murder type story..about a crazy kid obsessed with some chick..and the fuckin janititor threw it away hahah

word up, its crazy that u just made this thread because i'm in an Intro to Poetry Writing class at my university right now and i LOVE it... and i'm writing a poem right now thats due tomorrow too :P

........................................../

its funny cuz at my school creative writing is code for: free period........

and i dont mean its an easy ass class where u dont do shit.... its literally a free period........ they just call it that for wen kids send out their highschool transcripts or w/e for college...... the class doesnt give u any credits, but it makes another A look good i guess, i dunno

Im taking the aus version of SATs atm (called HSC) so I can go to uni here, and creative writing is one component of three in a certain module of the course.

In the last exam I did, the question was relating to journeys, and came with a bunch of stimulus material for you to choose from and base your writing off. The actual question said something like "A group in the community is hosting a showcase of creative writing from young people. Using the stimulus material, write a creative writing piece to submit for the showcase."

Now I didnt know this at the time, but apparently that was code for "Write a narrative. A narrative that has a blatantly obvious introduction, complication, and conclusion, and journey. Please refrain from writing anything too creative." Seeing as I didnt know that, I wrote a poem and they gave it 3/15. When they mark the work, they leave a comment. The comment tells you where you went wrong so you can improve it... My comment was:

Don't write poems.

So yeah. I wish they mentioned that in the exam or the course. That real creativity is prohibited.
