So unlike most of the world, instead of midterms I had finals this week.

I wasn't ready, so I'm spending my time telling you why you shouldn't care.
I also spent the entire week watching videos and forgetting to update. The math final was hard :(
But anyway, away from my freakishly smart mind (it's not that smart, more like slightly higher than average...)
It's time to learn why we shouldn't care about tests from the very person who doesn't study for tests.
This chapter is kinda to everyone who is still in school so extroverts out there can relate to this stuff too. I don't know if any extroverts read this book I just know that they exist. Somewhere...
I've been watching way too much anime...
1)
the first reason why you shouldn't worry about tests is that it's just a thing that is figuring out how much you actually learned. And to prove it to you I got a definition of the word test."something (as a series of questions or exercises) for measuring the skill, knowledge, intelligence, capacities, or aptitudes of an individual or group" -Merriam-Webster.com
I would have used a .org but I got really lazy.
2)
The second reason is if you pay attention in the class and you do homework (this is coming from a person who doodles in class and never does homework) you should get a good grade on the tests.I have nothing to back this up, for I am the type of person people hate at school. The one who literally will sleep in class and get hundreds on tests. It's not my fault, blame my genetics, my dad was the same way. (can you be genetically smart? or am I good at testing?)
3)
Most likely, if you have great teachers, they will review up to the test. Pay attention during review. Unless you're me. Then don't pay attention to the reviews. Because they're boring and the giant puddle outside the window is more interesting than this. (true story)I really don't mean to be funny... I'm stupid, book-smart but stupid everywhere else.
4)
How many points do I have? I'm making this up as I go...
Never study early morning or late at night before the test. If you do you will fail. It is guaranteed that you will fail. You will pass out during the test, you will not finish the test.I think that's all I have... as I said before I'm the person who does none of these things, but that's not what makes me an introvert. What makes me an introvert is the need to be alone sometimes for hours not because I'm sad but because I'm tired of being around people. I'm an introvert because I can't stand small talk... and I want to know who can. I'm an introvert because I can give a speech or sing a solo in front of hundreds and not be nervous but be nervous when it's in front of one person.
So why put this chapter-thing into this book instead of a different book altogether?
To show that there are smart introverts and there are ones who struggle in things like school. But we're all people.
So, I'm the person who is book-smart and introverted. There are others who are community-smart (if that's a thing...) and introverted but there's also the book-smart extroverts and the community-smart extroverts.
Everyone is different.
Love yourself.
Because you're beautiful.
