Time pretty much stopped on the last day of my formal education, some time in the summer of 1995. Without the structure and rhythm of classes, it has just felt like one long, boring day.


sigh... funnily I didnt really start studying until recently.... approx 8 years ago when I got the intern net..... it doesnt have to be that way!

I hated formal education, and did not thrive in that environment

I am definitely like this -I need constant mental stimulation and I am addicted to learning!! I get frustrated at the speed I can acquire knowledge, however, and hope one day it does get invented that we can just do it matrix-style and "download" a subject!
I am a complete google addict (I have endless questions!), have heaps of books and always acquiring more, and I treat each conversation I find myself in as an opportunity to learn something (which makes me come across very intense and invasive on top of my other AS stuff ;( ). I can't stand conversations that aren't mentally stimulating.
