I don't really have a specific hero and I couldn't mention a fictional person because...I don't actually know why I couldn't mention a fictional person.  Is it because they haven't actually done anything in real life?  That's not true.  They can still be influence, but I decided not to go that route with my essay.  I talked more about notability and courage.

I don't remember what my last essay was about.  Whatever it was it was basically a marshmallow.  All fluff and no substance.  Still got a 95+ on it (I know that because none of the essays I did last quarter were less than a 95.  Professors lurv marshmallows.)

Having never written under such a time limit before, I decided to go with what I agreed with and said that faster communication helps with learning. Never before have I encountered such hand cramps.

The only other part that was very difficult at all was the part where you had to write that you agreed to the nondisclosure policy in cursive. Who uses cursive? I sure haven't, not since 3rd grade. I can write my signature, but I don't see any use at all for making letters look jumbled together and overly ornate.

Haha, mine was on heroism.  I seem to remember fangirling everywhere about Quasimodo.

Revealing.  I don't remember Quasimodo being a mathematician.

That's what the French want you to think.  He specialized in approximating function values with special "half-formed methods."  A pity that he died young... but then, most great mathematicians do.

Haha, nice. Are half-formed methods a real thing too?

I think in mathematical music theory you can have half-formed universes. But all that stuff is way over my head.

I connected print letters together.

Mostly, I was joking >_>

But it did sound dreadfully serious, huh?

Don't believe in yourself! Believe in me, who believes in you! Go beyond the impossible, and kick reason to the curb!

That would have raised a few proctors' eyebrows.

[fqllve]

Oh no. Quasimodo means like "almost standard" or "almost formed" right? I was wondering if that was also an actual math thing, because that would have made the joke even better, but also would have gone over my head.

And won bonus points from the more awesome ones.

And owls from the ones that are anuses.

High five for man-writing!

Cursive is easy.
Other than the capitals. Never bothered to learn them.
They're all loopy hell and insanity.

[ein]

My normal writing is single-stroke print letters.
Sometimes, I just leave a long trail between words instead of a space.

[sonerohi]

What, you guys don't use cursive? Since we learned it in second, I abandoned print for it.

I will stick all the anime quotes I know into that essay.  By the time the judges finish reading it they will be pretending to be Japanese to catch a doctor, be controlled by a geass, have a heart attack from a death note, have their arm and leg loss to taboo, have their body turned into rubber fire sand electricity and ice, have a sword stabbed into themselves to become a death god, become a contractor without emotions, wear a ninja shield thing on their head, crouch on a chair to think better, question others on who they hell they think they are, speak a child away from suicide, have their future actions predicted by a cell phone, have their bodies become immortal after drinking an elixir, have a vending machine flung at them, be found of murder and being murdered themselves, reach super saiyan whatever they hell the highest level is, summon creatures through gates, breathe fire, punch cold, shoot monsters, call people orange, have their soul placed into a cat, have a doll placed into their soul, learn a life lesson, and never give up.
