Papers and Grendel and Research, oh my!!


Buenos Dias....




That's about all the Spanish I know. But I gave it the good ole college try.




Speaking of trying, I know you all have been trying very hard to keep the beastly machine we like to call AP on track, and I appreciate the effort. I have been looking at the papers you've been handing in , and well, we have some work to do...not a ton...more like tweaking, so expect to be fixing some papers over break. Make sure you are saving everything you hand into me as you will most likely be rewriting it. By the way, any rewrites that you hand into me must be accompanied by the original draft. How do I know what you fixed if I can remember what you originally wrote? My brain is fried people...new baby, remember???




As far as the Grendel project...first, yes, you may use up to two instrumentals with a longer analysis of why you chose them....second, this project is deceptive...it takes a long time to complete...don't wait until the last minute to start this or you'll never finish...third, make sure that the music ties in together...pretend you are creating a soundtrack for the movie version of Grendel...it all has to flow....for example, look at the Sleepless in Seattle or Garden State sountracks...the music ties in together and tells the story.




PS.Use some good stuff kiddies...this is where I get all my new favorite bands !!




See you all soon!!




PPS. I expect some of those peanut butter balls before break...I won't mention names, but A.S. I am talking to you....you know how much I love them!!! ; )

cant wait to redo those papers! ugg...

so i've been told by my brother that there is no chance that i am going to get a good grade on this grendel music project because he was the only one to get a 100 in his class (and of course he bragged about how amazing his was) so please try not to compare mine to his when you are grading. i may be littleT but i'm not like bigT =)

Little T....I would never compare your work to Big T's (though his Grendel project rocked!!). You have your own brand of "specialness" that will shine though...I look forward to seeing and hearing the final cut.
