What is it btw?
I reckon you should ask another teacher
But keep in mind English teachers can be biased against texts they don't think are sophisticated enough
That being said if you kill it anyways then they will still respect your choice
Its the poem 'Invictus' for 'The Tempest' (gaah I hate the tempest so much :cry:)
I think I'll probably ask another teacher because I know that my teacher marks really annoyingly--- she gave me 11/15 for an essay that I pretty much rewrote in the exam and got 15/15
I dunno if I can kill it though, its English afterall :/

Is it weird that I miss writing my eng/his essays :(

Although I'm sure I will probs regret saying that as soon as I start having to write them for uni

Legal essays were fucking horrible though I hated them

my legal teacher was very particular about structure :( and made us write so many for homework (which is good for improvement but it just made me grow to loathe them)

although she was awesome haha that was just the one thing I hated

I ended up dropping it around trials though as it was my lowest sub and I had 13 units
