So for my writing 12 class, my teacher has this dry humor that pisses me off and he takes joy in that. I literally won't attend his class fora week and I'm still in the high 90's. I honestly would have liked to learn something though, like technique or pattern or what I'm doing wrong. He's more of a realist and i really dislike realists. Here is what i wrote for his class, i haven't handed it in yet but its due today. He asked us to write about a book we really enjoyed and why. I am not sure if i will hand it in at all, i think its a little bit pretentious.


 

The main book I wanted to talk about is twilight, but what’s the point? It will probably just initiate a petty comment from my teacher about how twilight sucks. So instead, ill talk about a less important book to me, but it’s still pretty great. It’s called just deal with it. It’s full of facts about puberty and sex that I read when I was 13. Becoming a woman is a scary thing and most people don’t like to talk about it. Since so many people don’t talk about it, the opposite gender doesn’t quite understand what its like to walk around being stabbed in the uterus. AKA, period cramps, or the feeling of crying for the stupidest things. The thing that bothers me personally the most is the face of young boys seeing a tampon slip out of my purse. Their utter look of disgust disappoints me. “Would you like me not to wear one? I can leave a tail of blood behind me so it’s easier to find me. How would you like that?” Of coarse id never say this. Back to the concept of this book, It teaches girls how to deal with this, along with everything else we could be dealing with, including how to go about sex, because honestly how is a young girl to know exactly what oral sex is and how to go about it? Odds are it will happen sooner or later and it’s not like your going to ask your parents about it. Gross. Its not just the gross stuff that this book covers, its also eating disorders and what goes on in a girl’s brain as she changes. This could possibly be the most useful book I have ever experienced. Puberty is scary and embarrassing, and it was really nice not having to feel alone when this book told me everything that I needed to know and answered all of my worries. Not that you need to really know all this, but you asked what book was most meaningful and I decided that this would be a better answer than my inspiration to finish my first book…twilight.
