"My dog ate my homework"

I think this is a good title for my latest blog. I have this shirt that is inscribed as "My dog ate my homework" that I wear it sometimes. I love this shirt because I do not need to explain to my professors the reason why I forgot to bring my homework. Actually, I always bring my homework with me to class so I have no reason to wear this shirt.
I find it very disturbing that professors are not willing to tolerate with late turn-ins and etc but when they forgot to bring their materials, it is easy for us students to just forgive and forget. Or worse forgot to prepare for their class. "Ah, we will come back to this materials later. I will just post the answer on Blackboard so that everybody can view it." Yes, I know professors are human too, but just try to be more accomodating to students too. If it happens to you, it can happen to students too. Well, we are students too. We might have just too many assignments going on during the week and forgot to complete the assignment. Shit happens sometimes too, to us students. I also don't think that professors should just read off slides that you got it from a textbook. Well, I can do that too. I can stand up there and push next. You finish one chapter in 1 week by clicking through slides. Wow, seriously? It took me like five solid hours to understand the fine print in the book. And you post the solutions to the answer that you got from the publisher. That's convenient.
