I think you're greatly overestimating the maturity of my professors. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]


In any other situation I would play it straight up, but I'm hestitating to do so since A. this woman seems like a self absorbed bitch and B it kind of sets the tone for my relationship with her



also, i have to ask myself why am I taking a class about hippies? I hate hippies. All the source material we're looking at, i just sit there thinking "these people are dumbasses, wtf are they talking about flower power? theyre full of [censored]" its a class on 60s politics and the radical movement, my last addition. the first book was bill ayers memoirs of being the leader of the weathermen, who from what I can tell are dumbass rich kid hippies who deluded themselves into thinking they were serious intellectuals who knew everything and could actually have an impact by becoming militant but ended blowing themselves up.

So today my first class started at 1:30. I thought it started at 2:10, and it's too late to show up now. Which is a shame since this year I made a promise to myself not to skip class and really was going to stick to it. well, 2nd full week and the streak is over.

I like this one. It being the truth is also a plus.

I like to blame family, say your brother/sister/father/mothers etc car broke down, adn they are stranded.

hot girls + class once a week + two papers total + easy A= voltron enrolled.

Well, whatever reason you came up with, I hope you already told the professor, because during the eight (if I remember right) hours between your first and last post was your prime time for staying in good graces. Bad news doesn't get better with age.

uh, if i was a prof and a student said that to me it would not reflect well on them, to put it mildly.

Profs dont have the time or inclination to sort out which excuses are bs and which arnt. Some will rsepect you for telling the truth, some wont but they all get irritated by unlikely excuses.

Just say you missed last class. He probably won't press it--you're not in high school anymore. But you can always say you were sick, or there was a "family emergency".

[BottlesOf]

You know the "we" he refers to is "college professors", not the 2+2 community?

His response is actually dead on. You don't have an issue here.
