1). the only thing that matters is what you think. Try to get back at the people that denied you from your dreams by making them come true. 2). I try to soak up as much info like a sponge. I get very serious when it comes to learning in class.

Hello, the first question is not so easy to answer. Why did the person do so? Is it to help the other person, or to protect even the other person. If my dream would be to search and dive for ancient Inca-Gold sunken hundreds of years ago somewere near the Spanish coastline and a person would convince my partners that this could be a stupid idea he could be a) right and maybe he would have done it to protect me and my partners from spending lots of money or he could be b) just an jealous idiot who is afraid that I could have success. Is it a), than keep your body, is it b) dunk him/her. Of course it could be hard to decide what is the real reason. For your second question. I try to get as many informations or tips out. If the class is to boring I don't attend, if I have to attend to a boring class I fall asleep. Greetings Klaus H.
