Hanging out with friends outside of school felt like a luxury, and it was difficult for me to socialize without feeling preoccupied with schoolwork. Instead, I focused on the future; the goal was to achieve as much as possible in high school to get into a decent college. I graduated in the top 5 of my class and was excited to move on to college.
