How are you handling your schoolwork? Do you think it's putting you at a disadvantage?
My teachers will send homework and assignments to me, and I do about probably three hours a day, sometimes longer. It's different because at my school I go from 7:45 to 5:15 everyday. I go to the Mississippi School of the Arts, so it's kind of like college, and I love it, but it's a little different here. It's not a disadvantage at all. If anything, it's an advantage. Other kids don't get the opportunity to go to school in other countries, so I'm blessed to even be able to go to school.
