Happy Monday!!!

Every Monday morning people across America wake up and assume that it's going to be a horrible day. Its either back to work, back to school or one of the million other reasons we come up with as to why today can't be a good day. After coming across this picture today I think that we all have the wrong mindset! Everyone should be excited that it's Monday! Its a fresh start, new beginning and a chance to make yourself better! Monday is whatever you make of it, so lets make it a good day (:

What's So Bad About Learning?

Education. School. Learning. All things that we have been told throughout the entirety of our lives are important and essential to create a good life. I am a junior in high school and my whole life the value of education and good grades has been stressed to me by my parents, friends, teachers and just about anyone else I have come across during my life. As I'm sure you all know, receiving an education is so crucial in order to get a job and start a life. This then, should make school fascinating, interesting and enjoyable. After all, I'm sure most people could agree that learning new facts is fun! Well, if that's the case my question is: why do so many students find school to be so dismal? As a high school student myself, I am particularly interested in learning what the answer to this question could be. Maybe the early mornings? Or test anxiety? Throughout the progression of this blog we will find out in depth the answer to these questions. I look forward to sharing my ideas with you (:
