in the end, for the sake of results, marks and recognistion, for the sake pleasing our teachers, for the sake of going on higher education, for the sake of maybe scholarship or the continuation of scholarship, we've sacrificed the following:

sleep - what's your averge sleep time? mine is 4-5 hrs a day.

money - what's your spent on? mine's spent on photostating notes and buying stationeries.

energy - what does yours go to? mine went to frantically scribbling answers and notes

time

resources

relationships

friends

God

all these, are the opportunity cost of education.
