I had no appreciation of education for it's own sake until more recent times. I'm appalled at myself for wasting such good opportunities.
yep hear you there: i left school with nearly fluent spoken irish, and now Id struggle to cur dha focail le cheile.
likewise with maths/engineering in college.
Never really got learning for its own sake, was good at exams though.
Found a course that required not a huge amount of points that would lead to a job with decent money. Haven't done an exam since.
Never saw a correlation between doing something you liked as a job. Always thought that would make you end up hating the thing you liked.
Jobs are for money. Money is for fun.

i got 395 points. my endearing memory of the day being when we got our results at school and the english teacher was there asking us what we got in english and the surprise on her face at my c1 in english honours (she was quite determined that i should drop to pass level)
for me, i only really learned to study by second year in college, before that i think it was a bit of a chancing it.
I had an english teacher for the junior cert who taught the wrong syllabus to his leaving cert class*. I presume they must have found out during the mock exams. Who the fuck is Othello?
* Or so rumour has it - so it must be true.
It is true, is it?Funny, I was just thinking about that the other day
It is true, is it?
