My first SEEN final

I have a final tomorrow.

I have to do research for it. That's right, research so they can know what I learned from the class. Sound absurd?

It gets worse.

The research I have to do is to get secondary sources. Yes, I have to look up what critics say about literary criticism - and I have to put their opinions and their views into my paper.

That's right. Not my views. Not my opinions. Not what I learned. Oh no. That would be a very poor essay.

No, no. I have to put the views and opinions of critics on my final test, so my teacher can know that I learned something in the class this semester.

Please, if this makes any sense to anyone - Please, Please explain to me how!

Because frankly, I think it is ridiculous!

That's it. I'm done.
