Honestly, I'm the exact reverse and I wish I was more like you. I always was the "smart kid" in school, had some sort of autistic obsession with "doing things right" and thus ended up studying most of my waking hours in fucking middle school onwards. Yeah, I had great grades, but then I went to STEM college and all my prize in the end was severe burnout I still haven't recovered from.
I wish I could turn back time, give a fucking middle finger to all those teachers and spent my days doodling in class like you did. And as someone who had teenage dreams too, let me tell you - doing what you love >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> chasing greatness. I'm not joking.
