Reading Boring Stories

anyone know of anything that can help me read this boring story about pueblo indians? i have to read its its like 15 pages and seriously i cannot get past the first column i totally go blank and cannot compensate anything i read.

is there anything online anyone knows about that if i type in the title it can give me a short description of the story...or maybe an audio of someone reading it to me like teddy rubskin style 🙂
 
3 hours and counting...its really boring dull material i know 15 pages isnt much at all (to read writing them sucks) but its about pueblo perspectives and it royally blows a left one
 
Read a paragraph and write a summary sentence. Read the next and repeat. Even if you don't remember the boring stuff (and you probably will after writing on it) you'll have yourself a nice little summary. 🙂

Maybe you could make your responses shorter.
That was pretty hard to compensate.
 
Mood-altering drugs can help... For example, I find that when I take high dosages of antihistamines (i.e. Actifed, Deconomine), I tend to get smarter and am better able to focus on what I'm reading/doing/thinking about.
 
15 pages?

Try reading a Henry James novel
 
ok in class today there was a good portion that didnt really understand it either i guess its indian writing (native amer) and they have some different form of layout "spider web or something" and thats why it drifts off the main topic and starts another and then cuts out and goes to another...its really weird and i was glad that i wasnt the only one having a little trouble with it...so see im not dumb! and i dont have ADD!
 
You have to compensate to read that story?

Reading was free when I went to school. Wow...another thing to budget for when my girls get to college!
