First day at school.
This week was my first day at school. Monday morning wasn't a great day for me. I didn't want school to start. This summer I had a reset, so for me this summer wasn't the normal going out and enjoying myself every day.  As a matter of fact, It was exactly the opposite. I stayed home and worked every day. I thought it was better to ruin one summer instead  ruining the whole year by having to repeat the subject.  So it doesn't take much to figure out that I didn't have such a lovely, relaxing summer. 
So as I said, Monday morning was hard for me to wake up with the thought of going back to school.   Don't get me wrong, it's not that I hate school, as a matter of fact I love what I do at school, but I wanted a longer break.
However, as soon as I started my first lesson, I was surprised that it wasn't so bad after all. I was going to start doing what I like the most.
Today in class we talked about the meaning of critical thinking.  For me Critical thinking means making a judgment that you are well informed about. It's a way of not accepting arguments that you think lack information. Critical Thinking involves questions such as -
1. How do you know?
2. do you have reference proof on what you're saying?
3. Are there other possibilities to make?
Sometimes critical thinking stops when a person admits that his information is wrong because there is clear evidence of what he/she was saying.
This is my opinion of what critical thinking means.
