You’re overwhelmed. You don’t want to study. I understand.
You might have even made it to [...]

I came home Friday afternoon, a whole week before Thanksgiving, so I could spend a few extra days with the girlfriend. I mean, what’s more important: seeing my girlfriend or going to business calculus and philosophy class? (Dad, [...]
