Driving me nuts

After combating the notorious timetable for 2 weeks, I’m exhausted and spent. I didn’t anticipate this kind of study environment, crammed to the brim with assignments and tests. If this goes on (and it will), I’m going to mutate into a walking corpse, complete with multiple death certificates (in the form of homework) and a burial ground (the school). Bleahz.

At the same time, I’m running out of cash. All my stashed-away cash has been mercilessly sucked away from my safebox, with me being at all helpless. Hello?! Is this an educational institution or some extortion company? It’s like, we’ve got to pay for our notes?! I guess I’m being very penny-pinching, but a typical teenager like me who needs to indulge in magazines, CDs and gadgets can’t just sit around watching my money divide itself and not do anything about it! I’m not complaining that my parents don’t give me enough allowance, because they try their best to pay for my books and stuff which I basically can’t afford, it’s just that those books are priced at ridiculous rates and it’s impossible for students to fork out 15 to 17 bucks from their own pockets for a book. Please, the people at the ministry, do something about it. It’s driving us nuts.
