I learned that the last time a person was persecuted for witchcraft in the UK was in 1944. Helen Duncan was sentenced to nine months prison because the government was afraid she would spill the beans about D-Day.

I learned I wasn't quite successful at destroying my feelings for others and that I must fix this problem before I fall for the new guy I met.

Today I learned that doing my maths homework takes longer than anyone expected. I guess the lesson here is that one should do one's math work in Maths, not have friendly conversations with the school principal about the attractiveness of the men in M*A*S*H*
