Here I am, already sick from the amount of work. So, what good is a( n ) 15 application if I’m dead ? What is the 16 of doing this work if I can’t enjoy the results?
17 , by writing my story I’m not only 18 that I can’t take it, but I’m telling all the people who are too concerned with the 19 to worry about now . This is my warning: Don’t 20 the high dive if you don’t like the deep end .
