Woes of the below average.

Written by: Mahrukh Mohsin (Hmari VP Sahiba ^_^)

Alright, kiddies. Prepare to have a few bullets of brutal honesty shot your way. This is for all the people who are sick of hearing about how difficult it is for you to write your personal statement for that awesome school you're applying to and for all the people who can't stand one more 'I want higher than a 2100 on my SAT'. Alright, so we lesser beings just wanted to present our case and justify our presence on this planet. I mean we must provide you with a valid argument as to why you should share the air that you breathe with us. We understand that compared to you we have about the same level of intelligence as your average kitchen utensil but that doesn't mean we're completely useless. I mean, we have the mental capacity to perform actions. You know, like normal human beings do. We just choose to apply ourselves differently and even though some may argue that we're just wasting our time and being lazy others would completely agree with them. Without a doubt, we're a minority as far as school of thought is concerned but that doesn't imply that we're gonna go down without a fight. Oh, no. IZ AWN. While you waste your days cramming your head with information that you'll never actually use we work on our reflexes by spending hours playing that video game. Oh, we'll play till that controller wears out. While you log onto your computers and scan through xtremepapers we'll google 'sherlock season 3 watch online' and for the next 80 minutes while you drown yourselves in pointless facts and figures we'll learn the ellusive art of deduction from the master himself. If not him we'll be learning the ways of the awesome from the ultimate sensei and since you wouldn't know who that is seeing as how you live under your SAT prep books and registers, it's Barney. Not the purple dinosaur who by the way, is way more fun that you'll ever be. While you attend those classes spending tiresome hours taking the same notes you took during school, (Pfft. Not dumb at all.) we'll be at home. Taking power naps. Resting ourselves. Waiting. So, lets take a look back at how well each side would be prepared in the case of sudden warfare. On one side we have well-rested, quick reflexes and practically knowledgeable. On the other side we have excessively crammed heads, tired and well, just meh. It isn't even gonna be much of a fight. Just you wait. We shall strike! Once we're done with our power naps and video games and being lazy, of course which probably won't happen anytime soon but as soon as it does.. WE SHALL STRIKE!
