Writing assignment~All nasty things of being students

It’s not always fun as a student. It comes with lots of responsibilities for being a student. There are many school rules you have to follow. For example, students are required to attend the Semester Opening Ceremony for no reason, and are forced to listen to some administrators’ meaningless speech. Also, students have no right to choose all the subjects, and some of them are truly useless. Endless assignments are another nightmare for each student. Sometimes students have to stay up just to finish the assignments on time. The ultimate torture for students is all the tests, pop quizzes, midterm, final. You could probably get flunked if you failed in the tests. If there are alternations, will you choose to be a student?

You will graduate and leave school one day, but I will never leave the school!
