Dear Professor,
How are you? How was your weekend? My name is Xie Fang. I am your student. I am so sorry that I could not contact with you as early because I was have too much works to do at my job place. Every day when I get home is too late already that why I was lazy to use an internet. About the product analyze assignment, I was chose for "Pantene shampoo" but I was so busy that why I totally forgot to send you an email to let you know about this. However, since I am have to much work to do at work, can I just drop this assignment? Please. I am really sorry about this.

Xie, I don't understand your question. What do you mean, drop the assignment? The assignment is due tomorrow at the beginning of the class.

Good morning!
I am sorry that I could not reply your email last night because when I got home is so late already. Also, I am sorry that I did not speak clearly- I meant that can I not to turn in the assignment. I have started on this assignment already, but I do not think that I will have enough time to finish this since I am too busy at work my work schedule has changed. I will try all my best to finished this but somehow I may not finished, that's why I was asked you to drop out this assignment. I am so sorry about this and also thank you for everything.

I heard a professor telling another professor that one of his students had sent him a contract to look over to see if it was legitimate.
Oh, it was. The contract? To be signed to do porn.
I sometimes wonder why they bother taking classes at all.
Maybe they do it just so you can blog about it.
HA! And DOUBLE HA! My favourite Larson cartoon ever, and my least-favourite form of student ever -- both in the same post! How serendipitous can a reader get? (Okay, back to doing the homework *I'm* supposed to be doing...)
Aw, c'mon now, was the hangover really that bad?
Oh, goody, a foresight of what I get to expect when I start teaching. Except I'll be teaching writing and British Lit. It actually probably won't be much different.
