The hardest things in life are the most rewarding things. Why you may ask people like to take thousand AP[Advanced Placement, basically university level courses in High School] classes when all they do is complain about the amount of homework they have? It's because when you get an A on a test in an AP class, you feel real happiness. It's like all your hardwork pays off and so you're willing to do thousand more tons of homework as long as you get to experience that few moments of happiness in shape of a reward. It's not that you have to do good anymore, it's more that you want to because that feeling is so addicting and mesmerizing. I was debating on taking Med terms instead of Econ next semester and I dropped the idea, not because I want to look nerdy[well sort of that too] but also because I want to challenge myself. Next semester is going to be hell but that's the fun part of school you get to experience hell in a heaven at the same time. Like a paradox. haha oh English Lang & Comp -_- So next time when you're thinking of giving up you should think about the feeling of content and happiness you get when you achieve something impossible or really hard. Be it finishing all your hwk for once ;) It's definitely amazing.
