College Lesson Learned #31

#31- In high school you learn to write and to do homework on a bus. In college, you learn to write and do homework anywhere at any given time.

In high school I wasn’t a bad student by any means, I got good grades, never got a detention and all that jazz. However, I did not do homework. I hated homework, homework is stupid and you only get as much as you put into it, and usually not even that much.

When I did do it, it was never at home. I’d finish it at school during class, on my way to class, or on the bus. The bus was a frequent place to do homework. I learned very quickly how to write legibly (as far as my penmanship goes) with the bumping and rocking of the bus.

In college it is very much the same… except with anything. You are taking the bus or the train home, pull out the homework. You are sitting in the cafeteria and your friends aren’t there yet, pull out the homework. The girls are taking forever getting ready for a Friday night out, heck, just pull out your micro biology book and do some reading.

Moral: Homework isn’t fun, no matter what age.

Moral #2: You do in fact learn some useful things in high school.
