Okay, I officially hate my STS (Science, Technology and Society, essentially a technical writing course) class. Why? Well firstly, I hate writing. But I can deal with that.

In a recent assignment I had a diagram to help illustrate my point. The professor took off points because I "didn't cite the illustration".

So I ask her after class about it, that, you know, I drew it. Well omg, apparently I still need to cite myself and that APA has a "self-citation" form somewhere in the useless handbook I had to buy for the course.

...

Its not in the book.

Oh, and btw, this is Mushu writing this. Because apparently people assume otherwise, in technical writing, at least.

EDIT: Oh, and if there really is a specific self-citation form in the APA I'd really like to know. Because I tend to draw almost all of my diagrams/charts myself and, well, it'd probably be a good thing to know.
