it's the times when ...

it's the middle of the night.
i just spent the last 3 hours studying physics for a test i thought was tomorrow.
only to discover that it's been postponed till thursday.
sure you'd think "why're you complaining, now you can go to sleep and have more time to study for it.."
WRONG. now i have an econs drq and an econs commentary to do because i thought the physics was more important.
i know i said i don't use my blog to complain. but excuse me this once..

but in this little eye of the storm between me pacing around the room muttering to myself,
i've realised that it's the times like this, that make you.
that really make you who you are..

it's these times when you could turn off the light and go to sleep,
but you choose to stay up and finish your homework, that make a good student.

it's the times when you could avoid trouble by walking away,
but you step in to protect the weak, that make a friend.

it's the times when all you want to do is scream and take it out on everyone around you,
but you scream and cry your eyes out when nobody's around to get hurt, that make you a pillar of support.

it's the times when you could shut off the light and roll over to sleep,
but you stay up all night to console a torn heart, that make a lover.

it's the times when you want to turn and run as fast as you can,
but you stop and help, that make a hero.

it's the times when all common sense and the world screams at you to do something wrong,
but you choose to do right, that make a man.
