11 More Homework Thoughts

Here are even more thoughts I have while doing homework.

11 More Homework Thoughts
The Press Democrat

I realize that I have already written an article about thoughts I have while doing my homework, but I have decided to make a sequel in the spirit of procrastination. At this moment, I should be reading for my British Literature class since my assignments are due in a couple days. I don't really want to read this play, though, because it was written a long time ago by someone who speaks in a fancy language that goes way over my head. I'm so glad that people don't still talk like this; it is completely unnecessary to use words like "prithee" and "thou." In light of this and other homework that I don't want to do, here are some more homework thoughts to amuse both me and you.

1. Why am I taking this class?

I realize that it's required for my major, but it has literally nothing to do with my future career. When will I ever use old pieces of British Literature in my Technical Writing career? What am I supposed to do, quote it to random people at the office? Confuse my clients with fancy comments on their work? I don't think so.

2. This wasn't in the course schedule.

Professor: You can find every assignment for this semester in the course schedule.
Me: Okay, awesome! Time to make my weekly schedule of homework.
Professor *one day before everything is due*: Oh, by the way, you have to take this exam that wasn't in the schedule until this morning and have it finished by tomorrow.
Me: #%$&#^&^*#@</p><p><a href="https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/memes/W2EMkL8k-when-youre-banned-from-a-custom-room-for-no-reason"><img id="e43ae" data-rm-shortcode-id="d52fa185c0f1cce1268022cc25261faa" data-rm-shortcode-name="rebelmouse-image" class="rm-shortcode rm-lazyloadable-image " lazy-loadable="true" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' viewBox='0 0 552 401'%3E%3C/svg%3E" data-runner-src="https://www.theodysseyonline.com/media-library/image.jpg?id=13880168&width=980" width="552" height="401" /></a></p><h2>3.

Jenna, your videos are amazing, and I appreciate the distraction. Seriously. You're freaking hilarious, girl.</p>

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
