I am definitely sick of doing it today.  I wrote a grand total of 6 papers today, and when combined with the ones from yesterday, 10.  Not that paper writing is a difficult task for me, but it is difficult to stay focused for that many hours.  I simply don&#8217;t like writing papers on topics that I find to be totally useless, and these fell smack-dab in the middle of the &#8220;useless&#8221; category.<\/p>\n<p>After all that work, there&#8217;s still work to be done.  Out of those 10 papers, not all of them were totally useless; just the ones for my Education in a Diverse Society course.  I also worked on several of the quasi-book-reports for my Kiddy Lit portfolio.  That portfolio is actually a really nice break from things like Mann-Whitney U hypothesis testing and the likes.  I still have a ton of books to do for my portfolio, but most of them are beautifully simplistic stories.  The one I just finished up tonight was called <i>No, David!<\/i> by David Shannon.  It is a stunningly illustrated book about unconditional love.  The ending of the book actually made me a little teary-eyed.  You need to check it out. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, after that little sidebar about Kiddy Lit, the fact still remains that I&#8217;m sick of homework!  The worst part is that I&#8217;m not even done with the first week of the second-half of the term.<\/p>\n<p>Wish me luck.<\/p>\n<p>|:| Zach |:|<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Homework, &#1076;&#1086;&#1084;&#1072;&#1096;&#1085;&#1077;&#1077; &#1079;&#1072;&#1076;&#1072;&#1085;&#1080;&#1077;, thuiswerk, preparaci\u00f3n, heimarbeit, &#949;&#961;&#947;&#945;&#963;&#943;&#945;, lavoro, travail, or whatever else you want to call it.
