Что делали сегодня? Я полдня спала, потом ходила на математику и мучилась с матрицами. Лёгкие ещё как-то получались, даже к доске выходила, но потом застряла.
Remarks about the translation
we have an argument over the translation of my message. Maybe you can confirm my case!

Translated by Felicitas
Target language: English

What did you do today? I spent half of the day sleeping, then I went to the Maths class and struggled with the matrixes. Somehow, I managed to do the easy ones, I even answered at the blackboard, but then I got stuck.

Aneta B., "ещё" is a part of a construction, it doesn't have the meaning of "also" here

Thank you, felicitas.
It was only my little doubt... I learnt Russian quite long time ago and just try to remember myself everything, so every lesson of yours is really welcomed.

BTW, "ещё" has a very similar equivalent in Polish: "jeszcze". It sounds almost the same as Russian "ещё" and usually means just "also"...

What bothers me here is that this is obviously a homework...

Via, I think it's more like a personal message.
Also the requester is English native speaker, he wanted to know the meaning, I guess.
