Kapitel 237: Everyone has an inner demon.

Monday is always a day when it's tough to muster up energy.

First comes the unease.

(Because the weekend homework was sloppily done)

Next, the pressure is maxed out.

(Just 5 more days! Awls!)

These two emotions intertwine, ultimately numbing most people to the point where they lie sprawled across their desks like dead pigs unafraid of boiling water, allowing the new week to ravish them unchecked.

Only Li Zheng, with shining eyes, radiates the vigor of youth.

First comes absolute confidence.

(So happy that I wrote another thirty thousand words for my weekly journal and casually handed in 47 math problems that had me puzzled, the teachers better hold on.)

Next, the anticipation is maxed out.

(Just 5 more days! Awls!)

It has to be said, this world is too real.

School is just like society.

Some people wake up in agony, thinking about how to endure the day, how to fabricate stories just to get through the day's word count.
