TRUE! Laid back, very, very terribly laid back I have been and am; but WHY will you have that I am lazy? The relaxation had strengthened my work ethic, not demolished, not blunted it. Above all was the feeling of perfectionism sharp. I felt all things of any worksheet or assignment could be done better. I felt many tests were shoddy. How then am I lazy? Listen! And pay attention to how lively, how tediously, I relate to you the whole story.

It is hard if at all feasible to explain how the plan first formed in my mind, but after it was devised, I could not forget. There was no point. Nor did I care all that much. I enjoyed English homework. I always found it interesting. I never had trouble understanding the concepts. For a bad grade to gain a reputation for not caring I did not care for. I think it was the spelling! Yes that was it! I never could get the hang of spelling--spelling is like trying to fit together a one colored puzzle with the same sized same colored pieces. Whenever I had to spell a word I became paralyzed from lack of knowledge, and so bit by bit, very slowly, I decided to get someone else to do my homework for me, therefore getting rid of spelling for me for ever-or at least until 9th grade.

I will finish sometime.

Yes, guess what short storrie this is from-its one of my favorates and almost EVERYONE has read it or atleast something by the same author. It wuold probibly not be as funny if you did not remeber the story. I will give 25 pionts to whoever gets it even though it is not really a contest but something I actually want responces to.

I found it funny. It took me a minute to get it, but yeah. You don't have to give me any points.

Is that Murders in the Rue Morgue - C.Auguste Dupin, Edgar Allen Poe?

I don't get it because I havn't read much of his writing.
