reading

Got loads of paper to read now. Really don't know how the writer is able write such a long paper, each 9-10 pages! Is it cost-effective to write such a long essay in order to convey a short message? How "cruel" it is to write more than 4 pages in an article! Protest! Protest! Well, just kidding. Work is work, still need to spare time for the reading. Dear Good Lord, please grant me patience to finish the work.
