I guess I should listen to my parents more often

There was a time when I would just listen to heavy metal or rap music when I was trying to do homework or study for tests.

This of course was not very helpful as I would mostly focus on the music and want to do anything other than study for school.

Things changed though when I had a talk with my parents about my grades. I told them I was just frustrated and perhaps I was just stupid. My parents had to remind me of all the amazing things I have done over the years and I was far from being stupid. My mother suggested that having a window A/C unit in my room would probably help me focus more on my work. My father said it would help if I listened to better music when I was trying to get things done. He said that classical music was actually very helpful with studying and doing various school assignments. I thought my father was nuts for suggesting that I listen to classical music, but he brought in all these old CDs from various classical musicians. I was really happy when my parents installed the cooling machine in my room though because then I was able to crank up the A/C in my room and it felt wonderful. The air quality seemed to improve substantially and I just felt more comfortable overall. Surprisingly, the classical music wasn’t half bad and it honestly did help me to focus on my studies. I guess I should listen to my parents more often when it comes to things like this.
