I absolutely hate the school I attend right but I cannot let myself ‘let go’ of such a great opportunity. There’s just so much I don’t like about the school, its rules or the way they have abnormally high expectations. This is going to sound extraordinarily selfish but the only reason I want to stay there is so I could tell people I attend a prestigious school. I wouldn’t say education there was very different from other government schools, it’s just that here the teachers expect more and since everyone is really smart it’s very competitive. That really annoys me. Don’t get me wrong, my school is a really good school, it’s just not for me. Also I can’t leave because I don’t know what other school I would move to (going back to my old school is not a option, my parents would be incredibly disappointed and all that hard work getting into the school would be a waste of time.

But I’m glad I’m not the only person going through this. My friend Seleia* is going through a similar phase. She got offered an internship but she really doesn’t like the people there. But at lease her choice isn’t going to affect her life for the next 4 years.

 What am I to do?
