Douglas Soccio's Quote:how does it apply to me?

I thought that Douglas Soccio's quote about how school is kind of like real life. I know that his quote is true. Just because you are a perfect a student, it doesnt necessarily mean that your going to be all happy. When I was reading his article, I was thinking in my head, oh wow everything he says is so true! He knows what he is writing because he had been through school and understands it. You got to really think about it. School is really an example for life.
His quote kind of relates to me because there are times when i just hate going to school, that it is a waste of my time. If I really think hard about the reasons why I should get up for school I'd have alot. I have to come to school everyday because I need to in order to do all my assignments and graduate high school. If I decided not to come to school then there would be many consequences. I'd have alot of missing assignments. I'd still have to make up for the day that I do come to school. Like in real life an example would be like if you woke up one day and just decided not to go work then you'll think ahh..its just one day. You'd have fun in that one day. You would want to do it again. If you keep on doing it then your boss wont be happy with you. Your missing alot of work.
There are other times like when I dont want to do an assignment my teacher assigns me that day. I still have to do it even though I dont want to. If I dont then I will get a bad grade and that will just hurt me later on. I'd rather do it now and not have to worry so much later. Douglas Soccio's quote I know for sure that it has to do with everyone. If you just now read his article, you will realize that what he is saying actually relates to you and makes sense.
