"As we get busier and busier with our lives we forget to take time out and take care of ourselves. Well, that is exactly what this assignment is about. Instead of coming to class today, take 3 hours of your life over the next week (you can use the time scheduled for class to do this or choose a different time to do it, but you MUST do it) and do whatever it is that makes you happiest." -- Beth
Time is expensive. It is the most useful resource I own, or should I say it is only as resourceful as what I choose to do with it. That is why I took my 3 hours and put it where it belongs-- working.
As soon as I found out that for class we were supposed to take 3 hours of our time and use it 'wisely', my first inclination was to waste it, chill, have fun. But I already have specific time for 'chilling' in my schedule; therefore, needless I add 3 hours on top of it.
To make a long story short, I went to my office, sat down, and programmed for 3+ hours. Programming is an exercise of the mind; so wonder why I felt mentally sore when I finally decided to take a break. So does this mean I love programming? Well, I enjoy it very much. I feel like I am rambling right about now but I am so glad this is not an English class where each member of my paragraph has to connect to the other member and where my run-on sentences would automatically void my grade for this assignment but since it is not I can keep on running along with this run-on explaining why I chose to use my 3 hours to work instead of play and the reason is because time is money and so when you take money and you multiply it times time you get more money and during these economical declination there is really no time to play chill or slack off so with that said I will stop here and yes at least half of the people reading this will think I am very weird but you have to understand that first of all this class is very very very weird and so that explains to you why I feel pretty comfortable coming out and expressing myself in such a weird way with words that sound right although I could not define them even if I tried and second of all I think I am weird anyway and "weird ain't a bad thang"...
I hope I meet the assignment requirements at least. But I seriously did use my three hours to do something that was personally fulfilling (keyword: personally).
