Which is better: doing homework or doing tests? I prefer doing homework to doing tests. Homework is shorter than tests. You can resort to the Internet and other people for help. Memorization is not needed when doing homework. Some teachers and professors do not correct students' work when they grade homework. They just give a one hundred for completion. This is the circumstance where students do not need to spend too much on homework.

Tests, on the other hand, require memorization. The amount of time students use to study varies because of the amount of material on the test, the test's difficulty, how they absorb the material, and their performance on tests. Some students do not need to study. Some students need some time to study. Some students need a lot of time to study. Using a lot of time to study is upsetting because students cannot spare some time for their priorities and to have fun. Homework, however, will ensure that students will have some spare time. To lessen the time for studying, students should study each day. That way, they do not need to cram material at the last minute and it will be easier for them to absorb the material day by day. Also, they do not need to use a lot of time to study when the day of the test is near.

Tests are where the teachers and professors will grade students' work. Students hope to get the highest score that they get. Most importantly, they have to pass. If they fail, it's worse than having difficult homework. Their grades will go down if they fail. If they do their homework, their grades can go up. Homework grades maintain the students' grades by ensuring that they will pass the class even though they did not pass their tests.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
