Education & Reference - 11 January 2007

I am asking this because of a question I just answered. You do not need to read the question but you can if you want.

http://ca.answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AmYO.CUY2GTI46AJjqHd4vXAFQx.?qid=20070111214141AAcLX7E&show=7#profile-info-AA11790328

Anyhow I was just wondering how much homework you all got and how much did you complete.

From grade 6 to 12 I only spent about 5-14 hours on homework over those 6 years total . I got lots of homework in grade 8-12 but rarely did any of it.

I dropped out of high school after my 4th year of high school and got into programing and tech work with computers. I might of been lucky but I knew all along that I did not need homework or even a high school degree , I really hated school a lot!!!

What are your thoughts are we over teaching kids now a days?

I am 23 years old.

I'm supposed to compare Lennie from Of Mice and Men to animals and explain what it shows about him. Like how the animals are relevant to his character.

I have a few quotes that compare Lennie to animals. But I don't understand what that shows about Lennie's character.

Peace and blessings be upon you all!
My teacher said it can be about anything, in any subject area. Just as long as the topic is such that I'll be able to write 10 pages on it (I mean, like I woudln't be able to write 10 pgs on abortion, for instance). Please suggest an interesting topic! Any ideas are more than welcome, and thanks in advance!

It's not really a homework assignment, I just need ideas on what to draw for fun, I'm really bored and have nothing else to really do, and I figure it's probably better than sitting on the computer all day, SO... I need some ideas on what to draw, here are some things what I want it to be about...

Either:

War
Battle
Loss
Death
Sacrifice
and/or
Lust

Once again, It doesn't have to be any of these, but it helps if it is, b/c that's mainly the stuff I draw, but i anyone could get me something for all of those... Grrrrrreat!

Thanks all, have a nice day/night!!

I've signed up to audit two courses at a local college. Am I going to be required to turn in any work? I figured that since I'm not getting credit, I wouldn't have to turn in work, but now I'm hearing otherwise from a few people. I haven't asked the professors yet, but one of them, when I asked him if I could audit his class, agreed yet said he was very unfamiliar with the auditing process. The other professor seemed to know a bit more about it. Neither, however, has mentioned the procedure. Can I not just sit in?

fortunate people often have very favorable beginning and tragic endings. what matters isn't being applauded when you arrive-for that is common but being missed when you leave.
