I have been wondering about the will to power. What is this will to power?Click here.
It is an interesting thing, no? I will not attempt to explain this theory from top to bottom - that would be pointless. But if you are interested, it might be worth a look through Google. ;)
(This is an inflammatory post designed to relax myself.) I have to admit that I have awful studying habits. I'm always talking in class. I can doze off when I get too bored or too sleepy. I rarely scribble down notes that get put on the board. I am disruptive in class, making noises, continuously talking, always entertaining myself. Any ordinary teacher or lecturer would put me off as one of the slackers who never seem to pass examinations.
Am I a slacker? I probably am. I'm bored in more than 90% of classes I attend, not necessarily the fault of the lecturer. I'm fed up of going to lecturers day by day just to have the whole lot of facts fed into my ears. I'm often end up dazing myself into developing macroeconomics theories of such great scale, that I probably would be able to debate with my lecturer over such theories. When we're doing revision, I think about as far as the revision slides require while everyone is still at the top of the slide. It's my habit of moving ahead and thinking a question through about ten times before answering. I've been studying patterns of people who don't do well - they generally act the same as some achievers. They're bored, disruptive, appear to make little effort in their work and appear to never pay attention in class. It isn't until assignments and exmas that it is clear who is which. For the most part, the kind of people like me are the really strange ones. We act the same way as people who never do well, and somehow manage to come out with unexpectedly good marks.
I don't like studying in this kind of environment. I'm not truly learning anything, I'm just being pushed to the edge of frustration with these revision classes. I'm a last-minute person. I really can't get motivated until the very last few days before examinations. I've found that book reading is a lousy way to revise. I've been reading books ever since I've been able to read, and it's been nothing much to me. I have the odd habit of reading text books like they were story books. I also have the strange habit of reading dictionaries. It's been strange for me to pick up these weird habits.
I can tell you for a certainty that what high achievers say on TV can sometimes be absolute b.s. Most of them will say that they made brief notes and studied them - this works. Some will say that they started studying early - this will depend entirely on your own studying style. Some people can do this and no good will come out of it. I'll take this a working solution. But some of them say preposterous things: I study several hours a day. By myself. - this is definitely not something that works well with most people. What truly works is discussing studies with friends for at least 30 minutes each day. This sometimes happens in school, extra tuition classes and so on. Debating out economic theory, fighting out management theories, discussing the result of putting reactive metals in fire, methods of optimizing energy usage will actually make you think. Cycling heavy amount of thoughts in your brain keep you sharp and always on your feet.
Everyone has different studying habits. They will instinctively choose what is best for them in the situation. If you're not meant for academic subjects, you might want to pursue a more technical course. Sometimes, the abstract world of accounting sounds like a whole bunch of crap to you - you might prefer public relations, for example. Has it ever occured to you that there are people in this world who enjoy cleaning toilets? That the people who collect your garbage are actually more environmentally aware than you are? Some people are suited to different tasks. You might be strong in your sciences, but do you enjoy studying a subject you don't like, but are good at? Your passion might be for teaching, but you might be stuck in something unrelated!
Das ende, bis später.
I've come to a threshold with boring classes. I just went for Accounting earlier. I went there with the feeling that I knew everything already. I knew exactly what he was going write on the board, exactly what he was going to say, and what he was going to do. I was so damn bored. It sickens me when I don't learn anything new when I take time to come to their classes. Even my Macroeconomics lecturer/tutor brings something new and interesting to the class every week. I fail to see why I am coming for classes to learn old things that people should've understood ages ago. I honestly pity employers here. I think it's true what they say about job applicants for an accounting position being unable to think beyound a certain limit. It's time to end this stupidity. We must create a new way of teaching, or good students may be lost forever.
My semester finals are coming once again. It is again time to be slaughter at the hands of our written test examiners, who will scour our written answers for any mistakes as well as wanted facts to help us in our quest towards a better future. This is the final obstacle in any semester tha will determine our fate in the future. It is our war, and only we can fight it ourselves. I have not begun my own preparations, as my brain is currently in the restoration process. I will begin my preparation for the unholy war as soon as my neural networks are fully functional (or at least 3% of it is functional). During this reboot process, I have decided to delve into the world of Xenosaga once again, vowing to finish off the storyline section of Xenosaga Episode 2: Jenseits von Gut und Bose by this weekend. I have made my way to Disc 2 within a day, which I think is a good indicator as to how fast I can progress through the remainder of disc 2 that I have yet to explore. This is the same occurence as when Xenosaga Episode 1 showed up in my games folder - and I decided to finish it before my examinations. This time, I will prepare for my examinations thoroughly, I will not falter in my preparations. I believe that my armory is fully stocked for the Business Statistics and Accounting papers, though I am not so sure about Macroeconomics. I believe my ultimate weakness this semester will be my Managerial Communication subject, which I have found to be oddly obscure in nature, despite the fact that it has caught my interest.
I believe that the true challenge will be next semester, where I will face the horrors of Marketing, Business Law and Quantitative Analysis. With this, I end this post with a warning of a coming hiatus that may hit this blog with great force and strength. However, rest assured that if inspiration comes this way during my preparations for these great battle, I will dictate my journals to you. ;)
