Week 11/28 through 12/04/2011
Thursday (12/1) 2:20 – 3:55pm Still Life with Woodpecker
Total minutes=95
On Thursday, I had come to a point my day where the gelatinous fluid functioning in my mind began to set. After working through coursework and tutoring a student of Genetics from the University of Kansas on and off throughout the entire day from 8:30am (and technically outside of my jurisdiction), I decided to push aside my responsibilities and escape into the world of pleasure reading (although this itself was a responsibility). It wasn’t difficult considering how much I’m enjoying this book. My only concern is recognizing how precious every minute of my time is; but I do realize that I waste more minutes doing non-productive things compared to reading.
I usually utilize my time at work when I’m not with students to be as productive as possible, without the distractions of children at home. The only exception is the textbook reading component of my classes. Recently, I’ve come to the understanding that I’m not as productive as I once was. It’s much easier to do anything other than study. So, I knocked out an easy ninety-five minute read instead of blankly staring at a discussion board question wondering what I should write.
