but that's okay. this weekend involves dinner party, boyfriend i haven't seen in a week, and maybe a smidgeon of studying.
i love the anal requirements for my research paper from my prof doctor strangelove:
12. Include a word count on your title page. Do not include the abstract, table of contents, footnotes, or bibliography in your word count.
19. Do not use bold, italics, or underlining on your title page.
20. Do not use underlining at all, anywhere in the paper.
22. Print quality must be excellent. Do not use a dot matrix printer. Make sure that your copy is clean and smudge free. Presentation counts.
28. Do not write ‘mega’ anything.
29. Do not write ‘as previously mentioned’.
30. Do not write ‘in an article by’ or ‘in an book by’.
31. Do not include the title ‘Dr.’ or ‘Prof.’ when mentioning sources.
33. Use paper that has a ‘brilliance’ rating of at least 92 (the brighter the better).
34. Do not use mixed paper qualities, as this will make some of your pages look ‘grey’.
35. Use Canadian spelling.
maybe most of these are normal but i have never encountered such weird restrictions as these before. i am thinking of writing about viral marketing and its effect on blah blah blah? help me out people.
