Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember
from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught. – Oscar
Wilde
Hallo! (from Bekka)
As a student, I tend to forget that there are places other
than the classroom, the library, and the coffee shop. College life, especially
at Wash U, is very focused on academics. And it should be. But maybe, just
maybe, there are other things to learn too.
I'm taking psych stats this semester and I walked into the
class thinking that it was going to be the worst class that I will ever take.
Guess what! I was wrong. It actually turned into a class that I look forward to
going to. What's my point? Don't judge a course by its name.
So often in life we walk into situations with the same types
of feelings I had starting psych stats, but what good does that do? Expecting
failure leads to failure. Sometimes the best thing to do is be open to new
things.
Without having an open mind it's hard to learn anything
that's worth learning.
Keep hoping!
Bekka
