Quote Sandwich - "Not Enough Hours in the Day" - Hissie Chrynde
In English 61, we are learning to insert quote sandwiches into our research papers. After I get done with this one, I'm going to quote the great John Lennon. At the height of Beatlemania, he made the mistake of saying the Beatles were bigger than Jesus. Below is a quote sandwich I made from a group discussion on "The COD College Experience." That's my classmate Hissie in the photo. She needs to learn to slow down.
Hissie is a first-year student studying theatre arts. She is from Ohio.Her dream is to be accepted at UCLA. Right now she is taking as many classes as she can fit into her schedule. To become a successful actor, she wants to know a little about everything.
“The problem is,” Hissie sadly admits, “there are not enough hours in the day to get everything in.” You don’t have to be from Ohio to understand what Hissie is talking about. As a first year student she is finding difficulties to manage her time effectively. She is taking a full load of courses and working part-time in a shopping mall. She gets up early and comes home late. The little free time she has is devoted to completing her homeworks assignments. College isn’t as fun as she thought it would be, but Hissie is not complaining about anything. She has her dream, and she is sticking to it.
