Nah cause fr i hate writing essays- I love public speaking and i can hold a discussion very well- but as soon as you ask me to analyse and evaluate i cannot put pen to paper- HOWEVER I CAN TALK REALLY WELL BUT I ALSO HAVE A STUTTER WHEN I GET NERVOUS
I swear i am cursed with the amount of physical and mental issues bro-
genuinely when i need to think on the go im usually fine, but the moment i have to turn it into a coherent well-structured argument on paper everything goes flying out the fucking window like,,,,,, man i miss the good old days where they'd just give me one really long extract and tell me to answer reading comprehension questions and then id be done

Yeah I just hate writing English essays. I like writing essays for social science subjects cause there easy but English essays are just so annoying and require much more thought. Like last year I literally winged my geography exam and got a 14 out of 15 for the essay but in English I haven’t even gotten close to that even when I study for it

THAT'S VALID- and i get really nervous but it comes into physical parts too- and then i can't focus and everything i've prepared decides to kill itself- IF I CAN READ AND SPEAK I CAN DO ENGLISH

SAME and my handwriting is either way too big or way too small- so i'm thinking i'm either doing something wrong or my handwriting is illegible- and everyone exits thinking that was the best exam of their life whilst i'm second guessing every single life choice i've made-
