GOLF AND SCHOOL
During my early grades and up through middle school I feel I was a pretty good
student but I never really got the top grades in my class. And I don't know exactly
what happened but the last couple of years have actually seen me get some of the
absolute highest grades available - if during my junior year I had the highest
year-end GPA in both literature and senior year math and am also on pace to earn
the highest grade in senior year calculus then I would say I have started to do
pretty well academically.
I didn't really try to do anything different. I feel that I always tried my best. But
maybe two things happened; probably from playing golf plus the piano lessons dad
made me and my two sisters take less for musical purposes and more for brain
enhancement purposes:
1.) I became better disciplined and thus developed better study habits, and,
2.) per the October, 2009 BBC article JUGGLING INCREASES BRAIN POWER I
can only think that "the time spent training and practising (sic)" golf resulted in
"enhancements in the white matter" of my brain not to mention my grey matter too.
In this site's REFERNCES section Mr. Garrick Loveria, my Dean of Students,
noticed that "His consistent commitment to personal excellence on the golf course
has undoubtedly translated into the classroom...."
I think that is true.

2009 World Series and I see little sense in driving him to exhaustion or "pushing"
him just for the sake of being able to say that "he did everything himself.")
