Why do I study more than I need to?
My friends ask how much I studied today.
I feel the need to say a higher number.
So I push myself to study even more hours than planned.
I want them to see how dedicated I am.
But I'm studying for them, not for myself anymore.
I'm exhausted but I can't stop.
I need to prove I'm serious about this.
Maybe my worth isn't measured by hours spent.
Maybe dedication shows in consistency, not in overwork.
