I do agree that maybe we should start thinking about education like it's an investment instead of doing it 'just because' it's the next natural step. If I had done that, I probably would have made different choices (as far as financing college and which college I went to, etc). However, college does have its advantages, but most of it goes beyond the classroom, and can't really be quantified. @ Kelvin: Welcome! That's actually a scary dream -- a nightmare, really. I'd never purposely miss an exam either, particularly because I do NOT like retaking or redoing things. But yea, if you were to actually miss an exam, it probably wouldn't mean anything in the long run. @ Mac: Me and my Star Trek, indeed!

One recurring dream that I had was that I would be late for an exam. I would go to the classroom and realized it's empty. It was over and everyone has already left, but I feel like I don't really care. And that felt good. Now, I wouldn't really miss an exam on purpose and feel good about it. After all, I would need to think about whether I can (or should drop) the class, but the dream tells me how good it feels to not fuss over it, and how it's not the end of the world if that actually happened. .-= Kelvin Kao´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.puppetkaos.com/2010/01/the-end-of-an-era/" rel="nofollow">The End of an Era</a> =-.

The way I approach exams was, what I learned i will remember, I payed attention in class, didn't do homework and some assignments (lol) never failed a class, but I could of done better if I wanted to be a tool without a brain, thinking people can't just memorize useless crap because they think about it, analyze things and what not. And I chose not to care and didn't bother with education, the reality is many people with school have debts, stress, boring life and had ot sacrifice so much so that they can spend the next years of their life paying down debts? If I had the money for an education it might be a worthwhile investment but getting a loan for 20k so you might get a 20k/year job is kind of silly. Be who worry are unable to analyze the situation they are in, the way they feel is dependent on the results of a situation to be happy. .-= Mac´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.poweredpassion.com/?p=229" rel="nofollow">Unheard Advice…</a> =-. lol you and your star trek :) .
