Does it annoy you doing assignments in 3rd person?

I have to admit personally I found it hard going from 1st person to 3rd person. However now I think I have mastered it...now and again I am like HOW DO I WRITE THIS IN 3RD PERSON???!!!!


How do you find it?
ForestShadow finds it pretty easy tbh, ForestShadow just uses ForestShadow every time he refers to himself instead of the alternate first person grammar substituting ForestShadow quickly and easily, saying ForestShadow is like 2nd nature now, its easy for me at least

one could argue that writing essays is particularly difficult
I used to, but not any more. I've had to hand in 6 essays this year alone, all in 3rd person.

I am used to it, I prefer it to first/second person to be honest.

Hmmm sometimes yes... but sometimes can be difficult.
I don't think I write in either first or third person tbh, I don't mention myself!
