school sucks

[Perfect Stu]

I'm not a great student

I dont work hard, per se, as in number of hours reading/studying/writing. But I learn unlike most people. I think both logically and creatively, read over the facts and then pages of information just sorta become second nature to me, without re-reading them or spending much time thinking about them. At the same time, I have a poor work ethic, and poor stick-to-it-ive-ness. I can dominate class discussion or (when I dont read a damn thing) have no idea what's going on. I also miss a lot of classes.

But I am smart. I was born with smarts. I have a very confident outlook on my abilities to learn and soak up knowledge in things that interest me. I learned the sport of football in one year better than a lot of middle aged people who watch it all their life. I pitched a marketing idea to the company my father has quite a bit of leverage with, and they liked it. I've designed a couple company logos but never took art class. Things like that.

Once I get a job in a field I like, I think I'm going to move up the corporate ladder a lot quicker than most do...ambition, and the inner perfectionist will drive me.
