Running On Empty

          Four weeks to go. It really crept up on me. Three weeks of cramming and hard work to bump up my grade just enough to exempt an exam. It's no fun; all the hustle and bustle that saps my energy and makes me like a zombie. It's hard, but everyone goes through the same thing. Some have it worse, some have it better. It has been a long school year of getting ideas and facts crammed into your brain and stored for later use. Of course, most of it is forgotten. But it all must be recalled for the big tests at the end of each semester. Exams. The death and fear of everyone in school. Exams are the biggest tests that a high schooler will take every semester. They are the Bill Cosby of the school. Everyone thinks they are a joke until they find out how bad they actually are. But after a few years of them, you know that they really suck. People will spend hours studying for them and days stressing over the unknown. But at this point I'm like, "Screw it, I don't care. Throw it at me. #noregrets" And I don't actually do too bad on them. Yes studying more will help, but it stresses me out more. So I just relax and keep calm and I'm fine. Keep a cool head kid and you will go far. Also walk quietly and carry a big stick to get rid of your enemies.
