its just stream of consciousness (if you're doing discursive), with some techniques shoved in and I always like to add some literary allusions (I've watched/read LOTR so many times I know the script and always find a spot to pop a LOTR quote in)
Me with radiohead. I always reference or quote a radiohead lyric.

i mean my discursive was about radiohead. I try and inject this band into absolutely everything i do nesa will feel the absolute WRATH of thom yorke

Yea I do that but my mind is too left brained so I think too logically (like Christopher if you know you know), and then I end up talking about the steps to reach the effect like you would in math, but then I go off on tangents, I'm literally CHRISTOPHER BOONE.
Man i wish i was like that! My brain is too englishy, and then i overthink the question because i notice a squillion things at once. So either wayā€¦timed essays are never a fun time!

ya thats my plan. use all my reading time to GLANCE at the essay question and plan really thoroughly for short response. finish short 5-10 mini early and start on the essay asap getting a really decent intro
That is a solid plan, intros always take about 300 years to do
