Why You should not Study.
Why You Should Not Study
What everyone wants is happieness, Right?
If you study and get a good grade, you deserve it and you are not happy or sad.
If you don't study and get a bad grade, you deserve it and you are not happy or sad.
If you study and get a bad grade, you feel miserable.
If you don't study and get a good grade, you feel great.
Don't you want to be happy?
If that doesn't convince you, maybe this will.
The more you study, the more you know.
The more you know, the more you forget.
The more you forget, the less you remember.
The less you remember, the worse your grade is.
The worse your grade, the better chances of failing.
The less you study, the less you know.
The less you know, the less you forget.
The less you forget, the more you remember.
The more you remember, the better your grade is.
The better your grade, the better chances of passing.
If THAT does not convince you, here is a Mathmatical Proof on why not to study!
Given:
Study=NotFail
NotStudy=Fail
Proof:
Study+NotStudy=NotFail+Fail
Study(Not+1)=Fail(Not+1)
(Not+1) Cancels out. Leaves us with:
Study=Fail
All of this points to one thing...I was really bored. Discuss.

Re: Why You should not Study.
you realize we only use 5% of our brain capacity, so your evidence about remembering is meaningless.

Re: Why You should not Study.
Lol.
I'm really good in school. I never study, and I get good grades. The only test I might have had to study for were Physical Education tests about where each part of the body is, as I don't really know much latin about the body to know it, and well its not something that I'd use in everyday life or watch on National Geographic/Discovery Channels (Well there was that one documentary about obesity...). Hehe.
It just overall depends on if you're naturally smart. Why I am:
-1. My family is born fairly smart. My dad is a programmer and he inspires me...
-2. My parents cared about my education, so when I was younger and didn't know better, they made me play computer games that taught me how to do math. By 1st grade I was already doing fractions lol.

Re: Why You should not Study.
Also isn't it just spelled Happiness, not Happieness? It looks just like the word Hippieness lol. If that even is one.

Not having to study will change once you get into high school. Trust me.

Re: Why You should not Study.
I had all A's in honors classes throughout middle school. Highschool came, and now I get a mix of B's and A's in my AP/Honors Classes. While I don't study much, I still have to for some classes. Such as Civics.
Curse you Mr. D...

He tells the truth, Lucario. I used to have straight A's in middle school. Now I get A's and B's. Darn you Biology!
I'm graduating HS this April and going to college in the Fall.

Through Middle school, I've had all straight A+'s. In high school I rarely study and get all A's (No A+ in high school). If I do study, it'll be a 5-minute glance at notes before class.

That is just a myth perpetuated by teachers who want you to work harder with little extra effort on their part.

Here is some better advice:
Not everyone who works hard succeed, but everyone who success works hard. Thus, in order to succeed you need to work hard ~some rich guy I heard about in class

I get As all the time. We don't have A+es. I'm in the second quarter of sixth grade, so who know what my grades will look like at the end of middle school.

Re: Why You should not Study.
totally WRONG!
The more you study, the more you know.
The more you know, the more space you get for not forgetting.
The more space you have for remembering, the more you remember.
The more you remember, the less you forget.
The less you forget, the better your grades.
The better you grades, the happier you are.

Eh, I know we don't use all of it but I think we use more than that.(Yes I said "eh" >.>)
And I think that this is rather.....untrue. Obiously.

I mean though really, last year at school, all of the boys in my class only cared about like the style of their boxers lol. And of course gossip. Which I don't do. Infact at lunch I sit alone cuz I think everybody else in the school needs to get a life no offense to them, but it gives me more time to daydream and plan things out. Kinda degrading I guess.
