Sometimes, I meet people who do it all. They work, do amazingly well in school, have a major social life, and still have time to relax and keep it all together. At least thats how it seems. I on the other hand only DREAM of being that put together.
What I wouldnt give to sleep the perfect 7 hours each night, wake up beautiful and rested. Get up do a ton of school or go to work looking great. I'd love to manage my social life and have straight A's and feel smart.
But this isn't me. I normally wait til the last minute to finish projects, always have a messy room, and always sleep past my alarm. My hair never lays perfect, and I dont have straight A's that I truly worked hard for. I slack off in a lot of ways and I still don't have time for anything.
Some people would call the first person an overachiever and some would call me an underachiever. I resent both titles. People normally think that people who overachieve ar stuck up, and not friendly, and work too hard. Especially teenagers. But as a Christian I should be giving 100% in everything I do. School, cleaning, friends, and much more. Some people would think, your just a teenager you dont need to be working so hard. But I feel as though I should be, in order to give 100% for God!
I can promise you, I will still have hairs out of place and my make-up wont be perfect. I wont get perfect scores on all school assignments, and I will still hit the snooze button 10 times some mornings. But I can tell you that I hope when you see me now, I'm a bit more put together, and doing 100% in everything I do. Call it want you want. But I'm ready to be an overachiever.
