I hate over achievers, like people that complain about getting A-’s and 92%, instead of there A+, I hate how some people are so focused on school, that they forget they’re human beings who deserve to have friends, who deserve to relax once a in a while, it makes me mad that I see people getting upset about not being able to go to the ivy league college they want, You know being happy is really all you need

People have high expectations of themselves and it doesn’t have to do with them not having friends or anything. Over-achievers have friends and there’s a difference between being around someone who knows they can do better and works for it, and someone who just complains and whines about it. But I applaud all over-achievers for knowing their goals. They just have to know their limit and when to relax and enjoy life. You can’t exactly get mad at people for wanting an A+. Just because you’re over there failing doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate our A’s. Telling someone to not be sad because there are people who have it worst is like telling someone to not be happy because there are people who have it better. Each person has their own talent and I personally respect over-achievers more than stoners.
