Hi there. How do (or did) you feel about studying? For me it depends on the subject but generally it sucks. I don't understand why do I have to know about a lot of things that I'll never use in my daily life again once I get off from school. What about you? Do (or did) you feel this way too?

Bom, tenta estudar alguma coisa que você vai usar mesmo no futuro. Para mim parece que você precisa de motivação forte.

Thanks for your reply. Translation for those who don't understand: Try to study something you'll really need in the future. It looks like you need motivation.

Studying is okay if its not for hours and hours, you can't really concentrate, it gets boring, and you learn nothing. I like to study for up to 30 minutes, maybe have a break, eat some ice cream or chips to loosen up, have a walk and then come back to it. Studying for hours is just plain old boring (for me anyway).

Thanks for your reply, I agree with you but I think 30 minutes is a little short period of time, I normally take a break after 1h or 1h30m studying.

Studying is fun, but you are right, some subjects don't appeal to us like the other subjects that we like. I have been studying for 8 long years since college. I am now into my second course. There are times when i love to study and i do read a lot and memorize a lot for hours, with little breaks, but there are also times when i don't like to study at all. Boredom kicks in and when that happens, studying is a pain.

I like to study ^^ it's fun. Although sometimes it could be a kind of boring... I hate study for a test. Study can't be a obrigation! People should study only for fun hehe At the School I studied a lot of boring things... I didn't like it... but now, I'm in the college and I can study subjects that I love.

I hate studying when I have to do it for necessity. I love studying subjects that I don't have to get a credit for or need to graduate, etc. I don't like to be forced into studying. Studying can be enjoyable but not when its forced down your throat into a cram session.

Thanks for your reply. That's exactly how I feel. I don't mind studying things I like but when it comes to things that I don't like or know they will not be necessary after I graduate I find it really boring.
