Dwindling Grades

One real thing that students hassle so much over would be grades. So far,the word 'student' is on your status,teenager or not,grades are still significant,at any academic institution.

I remember in high school, when I fell short of my usuals (68-75%). My grades were fine with me,' high school wasn't easy' ,I'd say. There was the socials, my girlfriends, the boys,and all. I was good. And a term came,and I dropped drastically, I was surprised and angry. My dad was vexed, my mom played intercessor, even while she was not pleased. Then I decided to cut off all my excesses, I had a curfew on my phone,social media accounts were deleted,hid my novels, and didn't hangout with friends,as much.

Next term came, with that resolve, I continued, and my grades picked up. CA's were proof, but I got bored right in the middle of the term. I was no nerd, just acting. It was a different me.
So I went to counsel with my mom and mentor,then I got the balance.

There is a time for everything,time to read, play,watch T.V,chores and all. When priorities are placed right and accordingly, there would be little or no problems.
Set a timetable, the hours in a day is sufficient enough for activities. School hours are mixed; time to learn,study,play and gist. Once school hours are over; rest, meals,chores, assignments and studying takes the better part of the day. Social medias,T.V ,hangouts would work during the weekends,except when important.

I got my priorities right,set my timetable, and school year ran as beautiful,my grades were good,without missing out on all the fun things of high school,but cutting them right to size. I was happy,everyone else was satisfied.

Note: The best ways are not always the easy ways, but with God,all things are possible.
