Especially when it comes to the AP exams every May, they’re not as stressful as the rumors may say, but waiting for the score to come in later that summer is the epitome of stress.

I have been working 30 hours a week to save up for college, and a car, and a majority of what I own! The reason I work so much while attending high school is because I believe that I need money to have a sustained collection of savings that I can use when I am in college and really need it. Although working that much has made me struggle in the past, I have been able to overcome that challenge and I can now work my hours to pay for my belongings, including a phone bill, car payments, insurance, gas, and other necessities. Mentioning this is significant because my belongings signify my persistence to not give up when times may be hard and when the light doesn’t always shine at the end of the tunnel.
