...then there's studying
Sunday, August 3, 2008
I know I haven't been posting much these days. Yes, I'm not even doing tags; only the weekly memes that I have committed myself to doing. This is because I am prepping myself for my upcoming serious review which will start in mid-August. I am currently convincing myself to brush up with reading the boring stuff in my spare time but I get side tracked by the Internet.
I am not studious. I have never been a studious student even back when I was in grade school. In fact, I believe the word study and Ezrah are like oil and water. I just got through college cramming during quizzes, mid-terms, and finals and managed to get decent scores.
I wasn't a truant, mind you, and many would think that I studied my ass off, but the truth is, I studied a day before an exam. Of course, when the time came when our midterm coverage was one whole book, I brushed up on my reading a week before the exam! It wasn't cramming but about 90% of us didn't even finish studying. After the exam, we discovered that the test didn't even cover the whole book but only a few select chapters that we thought weren't going to be included! Hummp, so much for studying. I had nightmares after that and thought about kissing my college diploma good bye but everything turned out great after that. We did a good report (under my direction, of course) and was praised by one of the terror teachers in our college and I think that helped me and my group mates.
I am fond of cramming but this time, it's different. I am thinking about my future here! So it's good bye Internet, for now, and hello books for me!
I will do my meme commitments and some paid posts and will keep my blogs updated but I may not be able to drop by your blogs as often as I would like.
Care to share your study nightmares and/or habits?
