But one of the lessons an education is supposed to teach you is how to do what you have to do when you need to do it in order to get by, and also how to match your work to your goals.

I took an introductory astronomy class as an elective and it was one of those classes where you were a nameless face in a sea of about 150 students. It was an interesting class but not one I devoted too much time to until the night before tests. Never in my life have I been so tempted to hunt down a nerd and offer them $1000 to go in and take a final exam in my name. Well, if I'd had $1000. Did you know you CAN read a whole astronomy textbook in one day and night and actually retain most of it?Gristle McThornbodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02975916963346215706noreply@blogger.com
