Making the most of it

I love to read. It's a bit hard to like it as much when I don't pick the books myself. I have 7 novels to read this fall. That's something to look forward to. Reading is recreational, relaxing and educating. It's revigourating to read a difficult piece of text and realize, "Hey, I understand this!"

When a particular subject is beond my scope of interest, it still is a worthy challange to work on it until I understand it. I'm not much into geography. The textbook doesn't inspire my much so I make it my business to enjoy the classes. And I do. Even if I will not remember much of what I read, at least it will be a nurturing experience. Then I must have learned something

Among geniouses

Some of the faces at school look empty. I don't know if it's chic to have such a facial expression. If I saw myself like that in the mirror I would probably ask to have my daily dosis increased.

Not many show signs of distinct character. Those who do usually give the impression of being pissed and believing they are a lot wiser than their age indicates. Yet they can argue with a teacher about why they must pass spelling tests to graduate. In my opinion, those who can't pass minimum requirements in spelling have no business attenting to higher education.
