Comic!!!

[e30G]

One thing I learned is what you learn in school/university rarely matters in the real world. What matters is the character building and bonds forged from life at the university. Cheer up Piz.

I got karma for this. The problem is that, as I have >450 reputation points, most karmas I get are gray. But what really bothers me is that it had no text, which shows whoever sent this is too lazy to type or give any constructive feedback. Anyway, it's likely he* misunderstood my post, so here goes a detailed, non-twitter-friendly version of it:

I know about the subject. I know what's like, and although I'm not proud of it, I can say that sometimes you learn much more from what went wrong than what you did right. Ideally, you would learn from other people's mistakes, but that isn't always possible.

But when you're trying really hard, when you put all your effort and still you fail, it shows you have reached the actual learning stage. It means there is something you don't know, or where you're not proficient yet. And it also means you have to make a hard choice: either you try to do better next time, or you give up.

I'm sure you are going to pick the first.

From now on, your goal changes from just passing your exams to actually becoming better. You are now pushing the boundaries of your experience and knowledge, something you could never have done just passing an exam (because teachers only have limited tools to measure how good you are, most of them which are flawed).

It's important you experience this early, so you realize this before you are too old and busy (and brainwashed) thinking that you can't do better and giving up.

Of course, take this with a pinch of salt. It doesn't mean you should fail on purpose, it means you should keep trying.

So, I won't tell you to cheer up; there's no way that would be helpful, you already know that. Instead, I thought this would be more useful to you.

* statistically speaking.

"Pew, pew" is an awesome sound effect to a fully charged lazerban…

Well I do like anime, but there's always a case such as Bleach, with all it's repetitiveness, cheesiness and predictability -and the unedning filler, oh the pain- wich get to my nerve pretty fast; yet on the other end of the pool there's stuff like FLCL -to name just one fine example- wich overflows with raw awesomness in just 6 tight episodes. Hell, I dare you not like it

Oh man I really know what you mean, A person should learn on own mistakes, cause it's impossible to learn on parents' mistakes. I mean, we have to go there by ourselves. Without failures we wouldn't know the taste of victory. Although, there, again, it's a very distant taste, almost impossible to reach :P
If I could, I'd give you my own green karma, but I can't yet /o\

and I'm glad you guys enjoy the page, I hope I'll be able to make up for the hiatus

ps: and I really do hate anime. :P let a person have his own taste!
