Boring right?
WRONG. OK maybe I'll agree it is a little boring. So anyways most of my days are usually coming home and starting to read. These past few days have been APWH extravaganza and I usually spend a good hour and a half doing it. The other hour and half is usually a mix of bio/phis/alg/eng/french. But some days I just want to give up. These couple of days I've been stressed out to the max. Forensics everyday due to the fact that we are not "competitive" enough,just great more stress. Anyways,sometimes I just want to quit reading AP but something motivates me to continue on. I don't know maybe its just sheer conscious or maybe knowing if I don't I will end up faliing the class. So I have decided to keep on going. But another incident today hit me harder then just study for the next exam. Today in carpool two very good friends of mine decided to duke it out and while I was pretending to not listen I could not help that my chinesse friend made a very good statement on life. Now my Indian friend still hasn't grown up to see the real world just yet he is still in that "Pan-gu coming out of the egg stage." But now I wonder, what will I do after high school? Easy go to college but then you have to get a job and support a family and once you know it one thing comes right after another. But the big question is what do I do now to ensure I get there? Wait do I even want to get there? YES I want to get there. So here I am every week on sunday studying the SAT in hopes of making it to a good college. No let me rephrase I have to WORK to get into a good college. My Indian friend if you are out there right now reading this please understand what the other person has said and why I might have agreed with you only to conceal my own worries. So why try so hard? Why not just quit? BECAUSE QUITTERS ARE LOSERS. I'm not going to quit even if my mind says yes I will not. I am going to keep on going forward,keep on pushing in hope for a better me and a better life.
"There is no failure in not doing it right, there is only failure when quitting"
So I will not quit, I will press forward. Just like the southside high school motto is
"Those who work hard,play hard, win big "
So if you excuse me I think there is some studying I have to do.......

Good for you, Cyrus! Keep on going, ok? Never give up just because life's hard. What's life if it's all just a smooth ride?
Don't forget to enjoy yourself at school though! These few years will whiz by before you know it...
You are good kid, Cyrus. :) I believe you are and i think i am a good kid too haha. Sometimes life sucks when you are trying to love it but i just never give up.
"Easy go to college but then you have to get a job and support a family. "
So we work hard for 4 years now...only to work even harder for another 4-10 years in college? To get a good job, where we apply the knowledge we gained to...work hard? Hwhaat? I have no clue why I'm working, but I figure I'll keep on going until I find a reason to stop.
Hm. Maybe I'm just a cynic about this.
