A little time and effort.

Lesson of the day, I realized that if I actually set some time aside to do just homework and put forth a little effort, it just might get done.

I did a lot of homework today. It feels really good to get it done. Not just because it gets graded or I have to get it checked but I feel like I am actually learning something. Having a reading done helps with participation in a class discussion.

The first few weeks of class I had a hard time getting my Ethics and Society readings done so participating in class was difficult. We have small groups in class that we discuss things in and I got embarrassed if I didn't know anything that we were talking about. It was very evident that I didn't do my work. I hated getting put on the spot when I didn't know anything that we were talking about.

I'd become one of those students who I would get fed up with. I was the slacker. Not a very nice thing to call myself or someone else. When it's true though, you can't help it.

The last few weeks I have been getting about 90% of my homework done. Not 100% but I am sure going to try and get it there. It feels good to be in class and know what is being talked about. It sure does make a difference.
