It's the nature of my chosen profession to have an excessive amount of writing.
I don't really mind, though, I kind of like it to be honest. 
Yeah ... if its interesting I wouldn't mind. I've been having so much fun writing this essay. I have to relate a country (or couple of them) from East Asia to the West - how they both influenced each other and was the Asian economy a success due to their traditional values or because they've incorporated some of the West's traditions. I took my sweet time on the last two pages, or still am. I just realized, my damn reference list is fucking two whole pages ... and I'm about to list one more. My paper is really fluid and interesting. I like it.
Obviously, I wrote about Japan since I know so much about it.
I haven't written an essay in near 10 years. ...
You're 25. No college or university? Or are you another Tiff?
Never had to write essays in my college classes. All coding and whatnot.
Oh! What did you major in?
