Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose!

There are times when you feel that you are undefeatable and that you can conquer the whole world. You feel that everything depends on you and that nothing can scare you. But, unfortunately sometimes  you feel a total looser,  that nobody can understand you and your friends' teasing can really have an impact  on you. Even one word from your parents' mouth is able to make you destruct anything around.

What really scares you is that most of the time you cannot even understand the reason you feel like this and you do not know how to handle  this situation. Of course your parents try in their way to stand by your side but not always in a successfull way. Even your friends, who you thought are facing  the same problems as you, they cannot often understand how you feel and therefore the only solution is to  find the way out on your own.

Apart from all the above, you  also have to face the University Entrance exams, which you wish could never have appeared!! Time gets closer and everyone tells you to study, not to get stressed, to make your best effort and all this kind of thing. They keep telling that your life does not depend on the exams, but you can see the anxiety in your parents face, and you know that you cannot disappoint either them or yourself. Even if  you have one more year until the final exams, everybody tells you that you have to study, in order to have good grades so that you can be accepted in an  good  University faculty.

Sometines It feels like you are going to explode if you listen once more  word about grades! You are fed up by the fact that your value is being judged in this way and also by the feeling that you have always to fight about something.

You have to be nice, to be approved by your friends and parents and also by your teachers. Sometimes you feel tired only by thinking of all that .
Among all these complicated feelings that you have, it is important to remember that there are not strong and weak people, but people with strong and weak characteristics! The important  thing is how you choose to see not only yourself but also the others.
