On learning, studying, examinations

The more I learn, the more I realise there’s so much more I don’t know.

And thus, the stupider I feel.

So many modules I’ve taken, and yet each touches only on the tip of the iceberg.

Below the surface beyond what we can see, there’s still so much more I don’t know.

That’s what frustrates me sometimes, is learning supposed to be like that?

I still feel blind, even after all this knowledge.

Learning is supposed to be like a beam of brightness

That lights up a vast expanse of darkness in our minds

Allowing us to see what we never knew

And even when the light fades off gradually and we forget

We know where to find it again when we need it

But sigh, with regards to studying chemistry,

I currently feel ignorance might be bliss afterall.

I don't think 4 years is enough to learn everything about any given subject. It takes a lifetime of dedication for you to even come close to being able to say your an expert on the subject.

But your university education should give you grounding at least, for you to start learning more if you wanted.
