text: It is not right for the principal to make it mandatory for students to take extracurricular activities especially when the have so much to do. Students have family mattes that they need to take care of, homework that needs to get done, and tutors that they need to see. They are not getting enough sleep and instead of lightening their load we are adding more things they need to do. This is not right and I wont allow it to happen. I hope you will also take a stand against this unjust act of depriving students of their life.As Generic_Name gently strokes her scrawny cat, she ponders back to the day she lost herself. It was 8th grade year, this was the year your life started. Before you could even figure out yourself, just your grades alone could determine if you got into college or not. Although she already had alright grades, she still spend countless hours studying instead of taking care of her acne or just getting in the shower. Soon she began to realize that her life was becoming numb, she stopped answering texts, talking, and she even began to loose her friends. Before she knew it, she was spending every weekend alone in her room just studying for absolutely no reason. Not long after, her parents became worried and sent her to a therapist, but most of the time she just came up with an excuse not to go. Generic_Name mainly made excuses because she thought nobody could give her advice that would relate to her life. This just shows that if you ask multiple people for advice you are bound to find someone that can relate to you. Seeking advice from more that one person you trust can be beneficial because you can hear different perspectives and make your own choice, you can also learn from their mistakes, and you can become a better person by listening to what other people have to say.
