That is my new name for what is more commonly known as PSEO (or post-secondary enrollment option.) My term stands for Primary Brain-Frying Option. It's free, like most other health-detrimental options...
Actually, I have been doing Post-Secondary this last semester, and I must say I've learned a lot. I've gone to the trouble of compiling a list of lessons taken from the experience.
1. It's hard. Very.
2. Hindus call the three expressions of Brahma a Trimurti.
3. Five page essays can be written in a day. (It's easier if you don't have to find your own sources.)
4. A "B" on a test isn't the end of the world. (I felt much better once I learned this.)
5. Laos is located in Southeast Asia.
6. Humans have three ways of learning things: Classical Conditioning, Operant Conditioning, and Observational Learning.
7. Sitting in front of a roaring fire with nothing to do but think is an amazing pass-time.
9. Scoring 100% is an amazing thing, the better for being rare...?
10. Shooll can (and offen doos) hav a brane fryeen affect.
11. Full time PBFO doesn't leave much time for blogging.
12. Yawning and being tired has nothing to do with bed-time.
13. Staying up till 11 p.m. studying is a no-no.
14. Put another way, you don't want to talk to me for a few days after I've stayed up till 11 p.m. even one night. Got it?
15. (Inna, don't strangle me for this...) Sometimes you have to study on Saturdays and Sundays.
16. My essays almost always turn out better than my tests. (Compare average of 98% to average of 90%.)
17. Full time PBFO doesn't leave much time for anything.
18. The goal of the professor is not to:
a. Enhance your social life.
b. Make sure you get enough sleep.
c. Help meet exercise goals.
d. Refresh your brain for another study session.
e. Give you an easy "A" on tests etc.
f. All of the above.
19. Hanging out with friends is an awesmazing alternative for studying - even if they can't name the five pillars of Islam or tell the dates of the second Peloponnesian War.
20. It's good to be back blogging. *Happy sigh*
Note: Later posts will include
Fabulous Choir Trip
Inserts from Intro to Lit
Etc.
4. Glad you figured that out!
ReplyDelete5. Yay me! I knew that Laos was in Asia! I'm sooper smartt.
6. *Yawn*
7. Ahhhhhhh. *Happy sigh*
10. Hehe! & *tear*. Both.
11. You DON'T say ...
15. Nice try with that. I'm totally strangling you anyway.
16. Not surprised, Miss Writer.
20. I agree! Nice to have you back in this Land of Internet.
Word veri:
ReplyDeleteUnact.
So is that like, the opposite of a play? Instead of acting, you unact? So like, maybe it's a play done backwards or something...
Imagine somebody performing "The Sound of Music" or "Cinderelle" live, in reverse? Just think...speaking backwards, walking backwards, eathing, singing, dancing and everything else?! Somebody should take it upon themselves to produce a show that way, just so the rest of us can see what it's like.
ReplyDeleteNow THAT would be entertaining. XD
ReplyDeleteWhich is, of course, exactly why said person should take it on. No?
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I think you missed something. Go back and read the list again.
ReplyDeleteThis wouldn't be referring to #13 & #14 would it?!?
ReplyDeleteNo. Check #7 and following.
