Already?

It seems when one is truly dedicated to do something, time flies. The end of the school week is here and I actually found myself disappointed that there is not school tomorrow. I'm trying to make an effort to go above and beyond what is required in the steps of learning that I might yield my education to my advantage. I used to limit my knowledge in the realm of books, well because I wanted fun books, I was uninterested in the realm in the classics. That has changed now - I am willing to read such books that contain so much knowledge to learn to understand. I'm trying to study classics now that I might become a better scholar, a better person.

Books....

Oh this is life written
That these pages shared
Contain true education

Little poem that just sparked that is written above.
I recently read How to Read a Book The Cure for the Common Education by Oliver DeMille and Brad Bolon. I would strongly recommend reading it for the scholar of any age or education. It might seem a cheesy title but within those pages writ is advice and the guide to learning of statesmanship. It's a really useful tool as well as being well written words to keep you from dieing of boredom that a long dull textbook might invoke.

The sprouting tree of education

School is here again and currently I am in the first week of limbo, but I cannot help anticipating the knowledge and understanding that I will gain through dedication. School will calm down after the first few days, already the quest for true knowledge and true understanding otherwise known as education is on...

I can't wait.
