I was supposed to read the Canterbury Tales in Lit class. I was even supposed to write an essay on it. I did neither.

I remember Chaucer wrote it. I remember there was like a "Miller's Tale" ... yeah, that's about it.

That's pretty much all I've learned about it.
And we spent a month on it in class.

canterbury tales is a good book
but not as good as this one:
VARIOUS ARTISTS - CANTERBURY TALES
reviewed by laplace
wyatt wyatt wyatt oldfield wyatt egg egg hatfield wyatt egg maybe henry cow maybe wyatt PDP PDP PDP cos PDP PDP PDP overall a comprehensive and - more importantly - a refreshing chronicle of the vintage Canterbury jazz-rock scene. Five stars - buy this post-haste immediately at once you must it's ordained ex cathedra.

I actually know quite a lot about The Canterbury Tales from an extensive unit three years ago. Remember, the Man of Laws tale sucks, avoid.

I'm supposed to write an essay on the Second Nun's tale or something. I didn't do it and I told her it was because I had quiz bowl or something and she said to give it to her "when (I) finish it." I'm still within that deadline

A professor asked one of my roommates freshman year to get him a paper (that was late) at least by the end of the semester. That professor is still waiting, and that semester ended in 1995.

Haha, I had a class end a few months ago where the entire goal of the class was to produce a powerpoint presentation on a certain topic. I never did do that powerpoint, but time ran out at the end of the semester before everyone could present and I never did have to do that powerpoint.
