Finally, i have done it. I have done what i never thought was possible for me to do. I have completed a long term assignment the right way. I read a little each night, even though i was at a week's disadvantage. I read and read and before i knew it, after reading each night for almost two weeks, I completed both of the novels, and loved them! The books were so interesting and i could make all sorts of connections between Romanticism and Frankenstein and I looked up confusing things about The Time Machine and i figured them out. It was really cool because there was one episode of the Big Bang Theory that talks about Morlocks and revolves completley around the time machine from The Time Machine. I made that connection and then watched that episode and laughed my butt off. It was great, and i am so proud of myself for finishing all of that on time. Even though i am a little behind on the stuff on Blackboard(which i am working on) I still got through the big stuff in a timely manor.
It was a lot easier than i thought to keep in front of all that work. All it really takes is to reserve a little blot of time somewhere in the day just like 45 minutes when nothing is going on to read or do whatever you have to do. As long as you make sure that you have time you know you are going to do it and you force yourself to start, the rest is easy. All you have to do is read, and the books are not even boring so it's like a double-whammy. It's a shame that it has taken me this long to realize how easy it could be, but that's the past. When I look back on how much i actually enjoyed the books, i realize that i easily had more fun with the books than with whatever else i would have done with that time, like watch TV or something. I am just happy about the whole thing really.
