I was only a little worried about my grade for the Death and Dying class, mostly because my book came back with a 93% (I mis-spelled 2 words (some parts were required to be hand-written, no spell check, I screwed up Emporer and Surprized)).

Final Grade: 4.0

...it's cause I know where to buy formaldehyde.



After experiencing the horrors of leaving the house in attempt to purchase specific things that people wanted for Christmas (Lotion cannot possibly cost $11, the internets MUST be trying to screw me, I'm marching down to that store... $14!!!! FOR LOTION!!! Bullshit! GODDAMN, no wonder she asks for it and won't buy it herself), I'm back to the internets and found many perfect gifts on etsy.com.

WTF? They take points off for misspellings? Are you in grade school?

No, they take points off because they expected us to have learned how to spell in grade school.
At Regis you are expected to know how to spell, have MLA or AP style memorized, and be perfect. Minor imperfections are not tolerated.

...You should see the papers by people who never memorized a style manual... wait, they don't get accepted into this school.

If they're gonna be that damned picky, I'll just send my $250 to St. Regis University instead and get my diploma through the mail. :)
