While it may seem, at first glance, that teachers give papers as "busywork" - at the end of the year, at the end of degree or high school certificate or whatever, the thing you'll remember is what you researched for your own papers even 100 years after high school is over. (Note shameless plug, or I should say plog - a blog-plug)

markup tips · 0

Text surrounded by asterisks (*) is italicized.

Text surrounded by plus signs (+) is bolded.

Text surrounded by vertical bars (|) is quoted. If you double-click a paragraph, it will be quoted.

Text surrounded by tildes (~) is blocked out.

Symbols such as *, +, |, and ~ can be used literally by placed a \ in front of the text.

A user's name surrounded by at signs (@) links to their profile, and the user is notified that you mentioned them.

A word surrounded by hash signs (#) becomes a tag and links to posts with that tag.

Text after a blank line that is indented by two or more spaces is reproduced verbatim in a different font.

URLs become links. However, new users cannot post links in comments.

Hubski URLS become embedded cards, displaying information about the post or comment.

Text can link to URLs by using the following format: [linked text](http://theurl.com)

Youtube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, Twitter, and Spotify urls will embed the content automatically.

Image URLs (.png, .tif, .gif, and .jpg) will embed automatically.

Where's your Florida, lil? Did you make it?

Super interesting post, though. I'm proud of all of my work, but I only promised myself to have a draft done by tomorrow night. Looking over it now, it wasn't top-notch work, but I'm making revisions :)
