My frustrating school life
I came to this school a year ago and I knew that I was going to spend 4 years of youth here. I never wanted to do that but I had no choice to begin with. I was accepted to this school and if I didn't end up going, I would be betraying myself. I wanted to be a man of my own words, just like how my family taught me to. Ever since I was young, they told I need to be honest with myself and respect myself. I've kept these words in my mind the entire time.So now that I'm a freshman at my school I've noticed the majority of my schoolmates are all very boring, just as how I expected. They don't like studying. They don't like sports They don't want to anything that's actually beneficial for themselves. They're addicted to a world that's unreal and they've let themselves go. All they do is play video games, sleep, play with their smartphones, sit in front of their computers and fantasize about girls in dirty ways. They're wasting the best time of their lives away.
I guess it's not that bad because it's their own choice. It's none of my business. I have no rights to interfere or tell them what to do with their lives. I just observe from a distance and I pity them. However, they always play their stupid games on their cellphones together at the dorm and scream in the middle of the night. They would also blast loud music and have no regards for other people. It's difficult for me to fall asleep every night. A random scream woke me up at 3 in the morning the other day and then I don't even remember how I fell asleep after that. I think I'm going crazy. I really can't take it any more. I want to swear at someone but I don't want to stoop down to their level either.
I try my best to find an empty classroom just so I can have some peace and quietness to myself. I only need one night to be alone, just one night is enough. I just want to fall sleep in my soft bed peacefully
I study hard every day just so I can escape from my "dear" schoolmates. I don't want to be a nobody. I'm sure I have the potential to be a great scientist if I try and maybe one day I'll make it.
Although our school does have some excellent students, they're the minorities. Our teachers are very excellent and helpful though. They treat their students like friends and equals.
I believe knowledge can change one's destiny but I also think knowledge can shape one's characters way more.
