Week 9 Reading Post

This week I read The Blind Side by Michael Lewis for 1 hour and 17 minutes.

GTA
(Geometry, Trigonometry, and Algebra III)
Sometimes in GTA I feel like Michael Oher. Confused. There are just some problems that I can see worked over an over again, and it still doesn't sink in. Michael Oher was a lot like this when it came to the "most basic facts of life, the sort of things any normal person would have learned by osmosis". Mrs. Tuohy did her best to make sure every day he knew something he didn't already know.
After a few games Michael's coaches learned something: they could win running behind Michael. That's what they did. The whole game they would run "Gap", a run play that followed Michael. One play. That made me think of GTA. One rule. K.I.S.S.: Keep It Simple Stupid. Just like their football team, if you keep it simple, you can easily "win" at GTA.
Totals: 43 hours and 50 minutes/ 1877 pages
