My roommate once told me about a quote she liked.

"Playing to win and playing not to lose is the difference between success and mediocrity."

I knew what it meant. But I didn't care. Now that i think of it, maybe i should have. Maybe i should.

Life is too easy. And I see people around me, trying hard to get a nice, or decent, or perfect grade at something. Doing their best. And I'm here, doing nothing, making too little effort, enough to pass a subject. When my dad asked me how i did in my exams, i told him i might pass, though the truth was that i didn't take any. He told me i should do my best. Because I wasn't. I wasn't.

So other people are struggling with all they can, the best they have, to become the best they should be. And I'm merely struggling for mediocrity. And I hate it. I've told myself almost everyday before, that i'd never settle for mediocrity. But that's all i'm aiming for at this rate and effort. I'm being stupid. Because I know it. Damn. I hate it, coz i'm forced to do something about it...
