Yeah, I really understand your point about the "analyse". Soon, we have to write an essay, where we have to analyse a text and it's really hard for me to find the "purpose of one word" or why the writer used those words for which effect and I find that so ridiculous. It was way easier for me to analyse a drama extract. I actually can't think of anything. But why are teachers mean to you?
Besides, cute comic. I really like that.

The teachers at my school are jerks who clarify autistic incapabilities of understanding as "bad behaviour", and they always say things like "the only reason you can't do it is because you aren't trying hard enough". The nerve. Honestly. And it's been going on for five years straight now, and no difference. I could write an essay - no, a LOT of essays - on all the grief that teachers give me, but I'm certain you don't want to hear that.
Thank you!

Well, I once asked my teacher, whether there are people incapable of analysing textes and she answered with no. She said, that when people practise enough, they can do it, but analysing textes is for some people easy and for others totally difficult. However, do you get grades for your english tests?
I asked another of my teachers the same question and he answered with yes, but I think, that was only a joke.

The thing is, in order to practise something, you have to be able to actually do it. The only way to practice analysing is to analyse, and you can't do that if you can't write anything. And I can't. That's one of the many things that my teachers never got.

That's also true and it's also somehow sad, that you can't do it. Anyways, my teacher also told me, that you have to know, how to analyse textes, when you want yo write your own textes, but I see that you can write fanfictions as well and they're not so bad (probably even better than mine).

Yeah, fanfictions are totally different. They just need imagination and a good story line and characterization. And I'm good at writing original stuff. Analysing is when you have to pick apart and describe text that's already there. I just don't get how analysis works, what with all the supposed "techniques" and "effects" and "feelings" and "structure" and "features". They're just words on a piece of paper. What more is there to it than that?

Yes, I agree. ^^ And I can't get the point of analysing either. I mean, I might never use the skills of analysing a drama extract ever again in my life, because people don't usually use it in their lives except they're studying something with languages, but I still have to learn it in schools anyways. And while writing my text, I also don't use sort of techniques.
