Laziness and profit

I sold out.

A few hours ago, one of my classmates Facebook messaged me to ask for my notes, saying she'll pay $50 for them as she couldn't be bothered typing up her hand written ones.

My notes are my babies - I mentioned earlier that I spent 10 hours on them a day - but on the other hand, it was an easy $50 to make. I just had to send them to her. But at the same time, I felt like they were worth so much more (although who actually pays $50 for notes?). I didn't tell her she could probably find a billion notes online, for free, or at least for much less than $50.

It really felt a bit sick to send them. I felt as though she should be suffering as I am and have been, and that now she has the benefit of my work without needing to go through any of that.

I guess that's what $50 can get you.
