Well, I was lazy BECAUSE I was bored. The only time
I ever looked at notes before a test or quiz was when
we were first writing them down. I was constantly getting
in trouble for not doing homework, but I already knew the
stuff & therefore didn't see the point of "useless" effort.
Though I had aced the test, I was failing my AlgebraII class at mid-term, because I hadn't turned in any homework, yet. I turned it all in on the last day before the final -- a pile over an inch thick -- aced that and nailed the A for the class.
And that was a subject I actually LIKED.
Stuff I really could take or leave --- [mimic foghorn] Boooooo-rrinngggg!
