Practicing Pathetic Arguments

Practicing Pathetic Arguments

1- Imagine you are sitting at your desk besides very large windows. It is sunny, there aren’t any clouds covering the sky, and you hear birds singing. You desperately want to go outside, but you can’t. You have to stay seated until you finish that long essay, another written assignment and those three other projects for the end of the semester.

2- The student feels as if she will never finish her paper. She is overwhelmed, desperate, and has lost motivation to continue writing.

3-Your baby sister wants to play with you, but you have to refuse to finish schoolwork

What does stress feel like?

-It feels like it has no end

-It feels like a big mountain, impossible to climb

-It feels like you are stuck

-It feels like carrying a very heavy backpack
