Being Clever Isn't Always Such a Good Thing.

Sometimes, being clever is good. I do well in school and get more of a chance of doing well in the things I want to do in life.

Sometimes, however, being clever can really suck. There are five things I hate about being clever the most:

1. Teachers constantly nagging me to "show me intelligence" and answer questions when really I just want them to get shit over and done with so I can get the work done quickly.
2. Teachers constantly praising me and calling me "amazing" and "star pupil" all the time.
3. People of less intelligence pretending to be smarter than me to try and intimidate/belittle me.
4. Teachers sometimes expecting more of me than I can give, e.g. in Maths I'm good at algebra, but I'm not good at standard form.
5. The amount of homework/studying/revision I get, when all I want to do is listen to music, draw, play guitar, and forget about that shithole.

I probably won't get this homework done tonight. I'll probably leave it for the weekend. As always.
