It's been..."educational."

This week has been very education.

This week I learned that I am not a responsible or knowledgeable adult. I'm still a student, which means that I don't know very much. I'm young, which means my experience is limited and, while my potential to develop my mind is enormous, I'm still ignorant about the world. This doesn't apply to everyone, but it's definitely my opinion of myself.

I've learned about my faults the hard way. I've been confronted head-on with my laziness and apathy, and hung my head in shame. This was one of the most dramatic parts of this week.

This week was very humbling. I learned that I have to work hard for results. I also learned that I've been slacking-off way too much in school. Success isn't all about being the smartest; it's about working hard and sticking to one's commitments.

Yeah, this week was pretty tough. However, I'm glad for the wake-up call. It has shown me I have to prioritize my life, and work harder in school. I'm happy that I learned so many important lessons this week.
