The Life of An Ever-Thinking Student.

Eyes down,

No time to look away,

That might lead my brain astray!

Does this sound right?

What does that mean?

My brain alights,

With thoughts floating down the stream;

More literature to read,

More notes to write,

Yet another check,

To make sure that it's right;

"Aha!"

I know this answer,

Spaced repetition and mnemonics,

Are my forever friend;

Here comes the dreaded assignment,

The deadline comes quickly!

"Did I hit the word count?"

Counting again!

"Too many words!"

I do nothing but complain;

Back to thinking now,

An idea has crept into my brain,

"Quick! I must add that, or my marks

will be stuck in the rain."

A student is always thinking,

You see;

It stops our brains from sinking

And keeps our words floating

In an attempt to get that grade!
