Replying to Is this too hardcore to hand in?
Ok, I'm writing an essay for my english class and this is the first "creative" writing I've had to do since I've been in college. Here's the first paragraph. Do you think it's too risque?
Writing about college is so generic, but I’m going to do it anyways. You know why? Because my life is boring and there’s nothing much worth writing about. Sure, I could tell you about the first time I drank, the first day I had my drivers license, or the first time I made love to a girl. Those would all work pretty well, except I don’t feel like casting myself into a pit of depression. That stuff changed me- probably for the better, but looking back on those times I feel a lot of resentment, a lot of hate. It’s hard to explain, really. I guess these are the things teenagers are supposed to find fun and entertaining, and for a while they are…but then they get old. Have one too many drinks and you feel like crap the next morning, vowing to never drink again. Well guess what? Two weeks later you’re unconscious on your buddy’s floor with no eyebrows. Good times, right?
