Homework Parties

I've participated in a few homework parties since my parents have been in town. We had another one today, since my parents still have a lot of their own work to do and I had a draft of a paper due tonight. So, we spent several hours in a library again, working away. I am grateful for our "homework party" today. Being surrounded by people focused on their work is truly motivating for me, and it helped me to stay focused on my work until I finished it. It's a nice way to spend time with family before calling it a day and going out to dinner afterwards. :)
