To Study or Not To Study

Studying is underrated. I must admit that until this fall, I have whisked through academia without studying. Granted, culinary school was a far more tactile environment and required reading was minimal. None-the-less, I am not a stranger to Humanity-type classes. Literature, Speech and Leadership Style were courses that were significantly hands-off…a solid study bloc for any of those classes cannot be recalled.

Tonight made the second test, of two, that I studied for. Not only studied, but did so with some degree of forethought and are certified ‘cram session free’. I think I learned to study in Russia-where the desire for knowledge far outweighed the burden of obtaining it. A moderate amount of personal study and a fair bloc of group study sits very well with me. Again, my extroverted character traits allow me to succeed amidst chatter, distraction and rabbit trails. It would be an unclear picture to believe that there was no organization in group study however, for without some, I would take solidarity in a heartbeat.

To finally realize active study’s benefits, gives it an intrinsic novelty. I plan to continue to partake…(laugh)
