10V: Creativity Killed The Cat's Inhibitons

This week, I have spoken quite a bit about creativity and how it can benefit you, but what exactly is it?

Creativity has been the main topic of my Inquiry class recently, but creativity relates to every part of life. The ability to look beyond traditional ideas and think of new ones is always a helpful trait to have. Having a creative outlook really helps in my Inquiry class. If I wrote my blogs blandly and simply regurgitated information discussed during class, I would definitely not have a good grade. I try to relate the topics to my own life and think more deeply about a topic until I come up with my own original input.

Some other terms that have been the focus of conversation in my others classes lately were Cohabitation and The Whig Party.
The topic of cohabitation arose in my Sociology class. This word means to live together as if married, usually without legal or religious sanction. We are currently discussing the sociology of marriage.
The next term, although it is more of a subject than a single vocabulary word, is a new topic that I had never heard of until this week. My U.S. History course is  focused on the period before the civil war in the 19th Century. At that time, the Whig Party and Democratic Party were rivals in politics. 

Although these three terms have no direct relation, they are proof of our capacity to constantly learn new things and improve our intelligence. Whether I am learning new vocabulary words or how to think about an old word in new ways, taking the information provided in your classes home with you is of utmost importance. There is no point in going to school every day if you are not going to digest anything you have learned.
