A couple of days ago we held our 1st<\/sup> annual schoolwork bonfire. We gathered all of our spirals and divided them up between all of us kids for burning. Of course, we did not burn the books that could be reused, but rather everyone\u2019s individual notes.<\/p>\n

My brothers, like all boys, are naturally drawn to fire. Every time they find an object that can be burned, they feel it should be burned. They were overjoyed to use their schoolwork as kindling. I admit however, that I was excited as well. After all, it is hard not to feel a certain amount of satisfaction as you watch your geometry devoured by the flames.\u00a0\ud83d\ude42 \u00a0But I don\u2019t want to go on a tangent<\/em> here.<\/p>\n

However, when you have your least favorite subject in hand and a blazing fire in front of you, the choice seems to be a no brainer. What do you do with your old schoolwork?<\/p>\n
