School is only a small part of our lives. It's not useless to try our best, to make something of our lives and for what you leave behind. This is something I dwell on a fair bit too. One of the most commonly asked questions, 'what is the meaning of life?'. Whether someone will ever come up with a definite answer is beyond me and to be honest I don't care all that much.

Yes, exams are coming up and people are working hard to achieve the best results they can. But they're not just doing it for now. They're also working towards their future.

My mind is pacing and my heart is racing contemplating things that I lack.
