** How I ****__ HATE __**** to work for long periods of time ** ** By Sonny Albright **
 * Have you ever been forced to work for hours on end every day? Like myself, most kids have and I find it hard to work with all that anxiety, distractions, and just thinking about all the time that is wasted. This essay explains how I** **hate** **to work for long periods of time.**


 * One reason that I** **hate** **long periods of work is that I go through so much anxiety. On tests I'm always wondering "How am I going to do? Will I get a good grade?" While practicing in soccer, basketball or baseball I'm always anxious to know when the practice will end. Sometimes I just wish that I could fast forward in time and get it over and done with. I get so anxious.**


 * Another reason I** **hate** **long periods of time is dealing with all those distractions gets on my nerves. While writing this very essay, I was so distracted, looking at others' essays and wondering how mine will compare. While doing chores I frequently get caught up in watching TV or reading books that I'm supposed to be cleaning up. If I happen to have a seat close to the window in class, I'm constantly looking out. All these things distract me and I** **hate** **it!**


 * A last reason I** **hate** **working for long times is just thinking about all the time that is wasted. I could be doing better things than writing this! If I were allowed, I would be sprinting out of this building, hot-wiring some car, and driving home immediately. I have no problem with writing essays, completing tests or doing chores, but these activities come to be my least favorite things if I spend too much time working on them.**
