I just love learning new things. I love the age of the internet and how that's opened people up to all kinds of possibilities.

Everything evolves and if you want to stay relevant, you should keep your skills up to the date.

No joke - I've done the BA, MA etc and then did a PG Cert for 2 years in terrorism studies, which was hard-core and stressed me to the point of teeth grinding at night (no joke!) but it did really flex the brain cells. Decided to quit now aged 40, ha! Def recommend lifelong learning though - even if its just fun, personal stuff. I think pottery or something will be next for me - no essays for that ;) Joanne xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4071987159907366396.post-8470254173004039692018-02-21T16:36:23.232-05:002018-02-21T16:36:23.232-05:00I'm one of those weirdos who DOES miss the lea...I'm one of those weirdos who DOES miss the learning and classroom aspect of school. I don't hesitate to read nonfiction when the topic peaks my interest and we usually veg in front of Nat Geo or the History Channel on the weekends. I love learning :) I've thought about going back to school, but I never really knew what to study.<br />It's actually looking like I might take some classes at our local vocational adult studies school soon for accounting/book keeping. None of that interests me, really, but it'd be for my career.

My 'problem' is I have too many interests to narrow down to pick just ONE thing to study -- it's not really a problem, but I can't afford to take classes in multiple subjects.

The main reason for me is none of the above. I just LOVE to learn new things, I LOVE to know stuff. And I still get excited when I learn something new. Even casual reading for me is mostly historical novels... an easy way to enjoy a story while learning history!Three of Cupshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07504198212822541481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4071987159907366396.post-51911525851565500142018-02-21T10:03:23.237-05:002018-02-21T10:03:23.237-05:00I believe very much that we all should never stop ...I believe very much that we all should never stop learning!
