little things that we were taught. All the things you
studied might not stick and you might never have
to find out the total area of a triangle (I was always
the worst at math), but after almost 20 years I found
myself trying to figure out what 20% of 78 was. Funny
thing is, I knew the easy way to find that answer, as I
had asked my math teacher.
Studying should not be stressful. Don’t hesitate to
ask for help. Find someone who’s good in a certain
subject and ask him/her how they make it interesting.
Everyone perceives knowledge differently and studies
school material in their particular way. There’s no-
thing wrong if you find subjects boring, the problem
comes in when you leave it that way without trying
