How wrong I was
My syntax homework is only two sections. I finished the first section yesterday in about twenty minutes, I glanced at the rest and figured it was cake, professor did mention this assignment was a bit easier than normal. I've been puttin it off all day today, figurin, eh, I'll just power through it at some point. Oh the naivety. Syntax, no matter how much I hope, pretty much is never simple. This homework seems to deal heavily with s-selections or theta-roles or whatever you wanna call em, point being, I suck with these things. Can never figure out how many are assigned, can never figured out what exactly is being assigned, can never figure out what they actually do once they finally have been assigned. Also, I hate the word "it." Like seriously, why the fuck do we have such a useless word. wtf is it anyway , placeholder seems retarded. it also complicates the shit out of my homeworks, thats no doubt the root of this frustration. you know what just made me chuckle, in the last few sentences every time I used "it" it(!) could be read either as the normal meaningless expletive it(!) happens to be, or as the actual word "it" that I am discussing. anyway, next week...next week I won't leave the whole assignment to the last few days. Do I mean that? No, but maybe it'll happen.
