“Mock” e-mail to professor:
Dear Professor Burleigh,
I just wanted to send a brief note expressing my sincerest apologies for missing the Art 1012 midterm exam today. I was stricken by the flu, and I was unable to make it to the exam because I wasn’t in optimal condition. I visited my doctor and obtained a signed doctor’s note regarding my illness. I hope you understand my reason for failing to attend the exam, and I would greatly appreciate it if you’d let me make it up at your convenience. Thanks for your time.
Many apologies,
James Selig, Art 1012 MW 2:30-3:45
Monologue: Ever since I was little, two main things have made me “tick”: my family and money. My family makes me tick because they are a source for unconditional love. No matter what happens, I know that my family will help me out, be there for me, and see me through the toughest of situations. Whenever I feel like everyone has turned their back on me, my family is always there to offer help and support. My family also gives me a place to live and food to eat, which is a definite plus. The thing that I enjoy most about my family is that we have lots of memories together. I have 3 siblings: my brother Nicholas is 12 years old, my brother Jack is 1 year old, and my little sister, Olivia, is 9 years old. I enjoy spending time with them and my parents more than anything else, and so my family has been a huge part of my life.
Money also makes me “tick” because money makes me feel safe and secure. I enjoy making money and saving it, I guess you could say that money is my passion. Money makes me tick because I worry when I don’t have money, and a lack of money keeps me up at night. That is why I always try to make and save as much money as possible.
My Family
