Poast here when you're doing homework. I know the semester doesn't start for another week and a half, but I already started reading a book for my NC History class. "Blood Done Sign My Name" by Timothy B. Tyson. It's very good so far.

8/8/2009 1:44:01 AM

thats nice but no

8/8/2009 1:46:30 AM

^I know I didn't need to start, but I figure I will be too interested in college sports in about 2 weeks to find time to read mutiple books, so I might as well get one done while I can. I've done this 3 out of the last 4 semesters and it helps when you have 2 papers due within 24 hours of each other. It's my last semester, so I only have 2 classes. Things should be pretty easy, if I can get this book read now.

enjoy summer while you can.

8/8/2009 2:37:44 AM

schools out for the summer

8/8/2009 2:40:13 AM

^^Oh I am, but I enjoy reading too, so I might as well read something that I will be required to read in the near future anyway. It's an entertaining book. At some point I am planning on reading some of the books that I skipped reading in some of my past classes.

8/8/2009 3:16:05 AM

I haven't had summer vacation for many years now

8/8/2009 3:46:46 AM

^Hopefully this is my last summer break from school ever.

8/8/2009 12:11:07 PM

Damn, I work with a guy who is going to be a freshman at NC State in 2 weeks. He has to read 3 books and write a paper before the first day of school! That's crazy!

8/10/2009 12:54:20 PM

That's crazy First Year College

8/10/2009 12:55:59 PM

he will burn out fast.

8/10/2009 12:59:50 PM

Class hasn't even started yet and I'm already eyeball deep in work.

8/10/2009 1:00:26 PM

I've finally passed the half way mark in the book I am reading. It takes forever since I am taking notes on each page.

8/10/2009 2:30:57 PM

I haven't even bought a book yet

[Edited on August 10, 2009 at 4:46 PM. Reason : I bet you sit in the front row too, don't you]

8/10/2009 4:45:15 PM

you should never buy books before going to class a couple times

8/10/2009 4:46:00 PM

^I agree, I do that even when I know I have to take the class

8/10/2009 4:48:38 PM

^^^yes I sit in the front of class. It's easier to pay attention that way.

Isn't the NC History class 100-level?

You're reading before school starts?

And taking notes?

C'mon

8/10/2009 11:26:12 PM

I do wish I had taken college a little bit more seriously and actually learned shit.

Then again at the time I didn't really care. And I'm still pretty good at Jeopardy.

8/10/2009 11:29:11 PM

^^HI 364. It's a really interesting book though.

best advice ever. wish i had never bought that damn MAE 435 textbook

8/11/2009 12:30:30 AM

196 pages done.

8/11/2009 1:24:06 PM

at least wait to buy books until time to start on the first homework assignment

8/11/2009 1:25:07 PM

^Yeh but then football has started and there is no time to read multiple 300+ page books.

8/11/2009 1:28:59 PM

^I'm not, but I just know it will be tougher once sports start. I just not the top of person who waits till the final hour to read and write a paper. I don't understand why so many people do this when they don't have to.

8/11/2009 1:31:38 PM

maybe you're too stupid to realize you're stupid

it's ok, dude

8/11/2009 2:04:04 PM

I'm at page 275 of 322 with 10 pages of notes so far. I've been lazy and did very little reading the past 2 days, but I'm excited to be almost done. It's almost time for football and soccer.

8/14/2009 1:26:47 AM

We don't have to write a paper in NC History, do a book review, or have a class discussion about the book we read. We have one short answer question about the book on the last test and that test is at 8:00am. Now I will have to study for 3 tests to pass the class which won't be hard, but I like writing papers instead of taking tests.

8/21/2009 11:56:25 AM

I was doing my ECE 331 hw last night around 9 PM.

8/21/2009 12:41:09 PM

I just spent 3 years working in between undergrad at State & coming back to state for grad school. During those 3 years I'd often be up late or rushing out of work to get to some campaign to volunteer with, or support some non-profit I was interested in, or to ask questions of some elected official or what have you.

In the MPA (Master of Public Administration) my homework is to contact a state or local government about a project, and I'll have to do an internship with a government or non-profit group. Not that I'm a huge fan of homework or anything, but my homework is now requiring me to do exactly what I was struggling to find time to do on a voluntary basis for the past several years.

8/21/2009 12:49:25 PM

who do you have for ece 331, fareako?

8/21/2009 12:51:08 PM

i will tutor ece for $500 an hour

Offhandedly studied German.

Doing some Fiction Writing.

I'm trying to tell my professor that her "content censor" policy can go fuck itself.

9/6/2009 6:17:42 PM

I should really quit waiting till the early morning hours to do homework. I am trying to finish reading my NC History book up to the point of Tuesday's test while studying my notes and writing a practice test for myself. The majority of the students make an A, or B every semester in the class, but I am still worried since it is 3 essay tests that make up the final grade. We don't even get to write a 10 page paper.

9/18/2009 7:56:53 AM

I'm trying to finish reading a book, so I can start the 7 page book review. I passed all of my tests so far this semester. College has come down to 2 more tests, 2 more papers, and an oral presentation about my final paper. Then that's it!

9/24/2009 11:58:19 PM

you actually read books in college to do the paper?

9/25/2009 12:00:30 AM

^It's a book review, so I have to explain what the book is about and what I think about it. I need to read the whole thing to be able to answer all of the quetions it takes to finish the paper. What sucks is that it is only 127 pages and I have to write 6 to 7 pages on it.
