I count myself as one of millions of Americans whose life simply would not be the same without the libraries that supported my learning.

I am dumb when it comes to learning dance steps.

In such an environment I was able to study things that could be of immediate usefulness to the world. That learning experience undoubtedly served me well when I eventually entered the work force.

In addition to the research I enjoyed learning French and assimilating the culture of another country.

I was fairly solitary. I didn't like structured learning. People didn't seem to be my cup of tea.

I think the biggest difficulty is that when I'm here in America there's a necessity of using English so I really have a great sense of really wanting to learn but unfortunately when I head back to Japan the necessity vanishes and so does my enthusiasm about learning.

I have had many occasions this year where I questioned and second-guessed my decision in a game but it comes down to learning from mistakes and being accountable for what you did right or did wrong.

But the important thing about learning to wait I feel sure is to know what you are waiting for.

I believe that every role that I have done this far has had quality and content. My roles have been very demanding and every role has been a challenge and a learning experience that has helped me mature as an actress.

The rite of passage of learning to build a fire that will burn all night with one match is not an insignificant one in my husband's family and I grew up camping and backpacking. I love to camp.
