Dr. John Evans was a scientist in a small town called "Glendale". His dream was to become a well known and successful Scientist. He was striving towards his goal for many years. He wanted to leave this town as soon as he had the opportunity, so he could bring to life his dreams. And here he had a once in a life time opportunity to move to New York by participating in the "Competition of Scientists", where if he would win 1st place he'd get to meet one of the most famous researchers and get a chance to live in New York.
He'd spend days and nights performing experiments. His experiments were getting more riskier and more dangerous the more he kept performing them.
His lab was strictly only for him, and when I say only, I mean that no one could step foot into that room . Evans kept all his research to himself and no one knew a thing.
Because of the fact that Evans would stay up late undertaking research for his project, he started visibly lacking sleep, leaving him very exhausted during the day. He was undergoing lots of stress because he was afraid his Scientific research project wouldn't be the best. He didnt want it to be Normal or average, he wanted it to be unique, abnormal.
But eventually , after a couple of months , Dr. John Evans won 1st place in the competition. He was awarded the "brain of science" and won free ticket to New York. All thanks to him staying up late and working. Evans had finally achieved his goal by pushing it to his limits and working very hard to get to his dream.
