It Ain't Easy Being T.A. (wait, yeah it is)

Anyhoo, I like it. I grade 38479838 papers every couple of weeks, I get office hours which nobody comes to so I sit and b.s. with my professor and her office mate. Also, when grading papers, it is unbelievable how hilarious the kiddos can be. See what I mean:

The First Set of Papers (complete with some writing advice)

The Second Round
