Thought I'd post a non-volatile topic for once. I plead guilty to several of these. Andrew is a good friend of mine, but I haven't gotten to see him since Memorial Day.
My personal favorite: The Effects of Procrastination 9 pages with title and page numbers....... That's all.
You have no idea how many times I've procrastinated, then launched into an explanation of why my paper/project will be terrible. And yet, it never turns out bad.
I'd be a world class procrastinator. ......If I ever got around to it. (just finished my political science papers a whole 3 1/2 hours before they're due... woot! woot! Now back to real work.. sigh.)
I got to the point where I could churn out a paper the night before while doing multiple things.My better work was always that first(and only) draft. I have been teaching my dd how to write a paper,but sadly the *flow* of thought just is not happening for her. She is finding it to be such a tortue to write a paper.
I'm gasping for breath right now. You picked the right friends, Q9. I'm guilty of many of those... But #4 is the one I repeat most often. I'll have to show that to other homeschoolers. But WHY is it always the Andrews who are the goof-offs? I'm not kidding! It's ALWAYS the Andrews.
Quote:Here's the weird thing - in person, he is the most grounded, common-sense person you'll ever find. Extremely likeable, but you'd never expect insanity like that unless you've known him as a good friend for 5 years. I confess, I've thought about doing #5 several times. Both writing the essay AND throwing the book. Never thought of doing #10. Hmmm... Maybe I'll do my Jane Eyre book report to the tune of "Dixie."
