Love of Learning

I have always been the one that was good in English ~ others in the family had other talents. In my years of blossoming that I am in now, I challenge these past thoughts nigh belief systems. I picked up the book of Algebra to get into the basics and the meat of it. As our teacher ran us through review of general math, I was getting quite concerned about remembering the foundations of general math. I had forgotten how to multiply fractions, how to work with integers; so seeing the evidence early on, I bailed and went back to Gen Math for a good review.

The early chapters I glossed through making A's on the exams; however, the last test was a challenge though evidently and I really don't know h0w, I must have absorbed enough to get the A on the test that I had gotten. Now I'm into another chapter that's a whole 'nother animal. In class as the good teacher taught, I'm looking quezzically at my pals thinking, "what the ??!!!" I'd really like to have an A in this class. I'm facing two chapter exams and one final over the next two weeks.

Since I've done well in this class which was for the most part a review of what I learned four years ago; I've been a great pompous one. I've felt pretty special. What price feeling special? During spare time over the week and a chunk of the weekend doing a ton of homework and making lots of notes and as much as I like to feel really good, it really is a review for me and I definitely need the studying time.

I expect alot out of myself but I also don't hang myself if I've given it the best I've got and ended up with a B. It's great ~ superbly great to have friends that you sit with and get to confer on how miserable you'll do on the upcoming test. This class has a good, caring, quality teacher and a fun group of students. It's been more than worth my while. You get alot of side benefits when taking coursework.
