When Exams are about ten or so days away, it is not the best time to say what you feel, especially about events and happenings that have nothing to do with examination. However, it is precisely in such a time when one is burdened by overwhelming authors [who always intended their works as popular culture and to their surprise, or not, have been favourably canonised ] that one turns to leisurely outlets. And one of them is to bash up the English academics who are pretending to be simple outside observers critiquing on society.
So when I enlisted into Post Graduate English with the hope that maybe I would find a mentor or a friend who would join me in ridiculing this scholarly endeavour, I was dreadfully mistaken.
Treat me as a lost cause.
An Outsider.
Welcome to the Academic Hell.
Admission will be granted to those who can recite Shakespeare's love sonnets.
Or probably something harder.
