Adding on


As I wake up to go to school

I think why the hell should I even go?

It isn't as easy as everyone thinks

nothing is easy in life though

My grandma taught me that

she would wake up one day when she was 16 years old and move to another country

where she didn't know the language or anyone except for the family she came with

she had to struggle a lot so that her children and grandchildren and great grandchildren could suceed

When I wake up in the morning and I think of why hell I'm going school

It's because mygrandma sacrificed too much for me
