High school class of 2016

<p>So jealous, ugh.</p>

<p>First Marking Period just ended for me!!! 1/4 of the way done!!</p>

<p>ACT scores come out tomorrow and I’m just casually sitting here, nonchalantly hyperventilating into a paper bag (as you do).</p>

<p>Guys I have to get my CR/Math score up to 1400 (which is not that far from where I am) and then I can get a full scholarship to Alabama and go debt-free, and I can double major in International Studies with a focus in the Middle East and Spanish. Yay, I’ll actually be able to AFFORD college AND they’ll accept my AP credits!</p>

<p>Dam my friend has been finding the APUSH and I just unintentionally helped him find our AP Lang test (which the entire class struggled with). I’m not happy…praying the teacher changes the test for him.</p>

<p>@LordBendtner‌ - Our lang teacher lets us do tests corrections, so sometimes he gives back the tests before everyone takes it, and then the people who were absent just ask their friends for all the answers…it’s terrible.</p>

<p>@glasshours Usually I don’t care but no one in our class did well and it was worth a lot so he’s gonna end up with a pretty high grade and everyone is dropping. </p>

<p>This is stupid for a Junior in high school but I still don’t know what I want to major in. I THOUGHT I wanted to do Computer Science, but I’m not so sure the sedentary life is for me. I loved to make websites when I was young, but obv that’s not all there is to comp sci.</p>

<p>It doesn’t help that my parents are totally depending on me to make bank when I’m older. I can’t let them down.</p>

<p>Ugh I don’t know SOMEONE PLEASE HELP MEEE. This is a serious question; I’m going to explode from anxiety.</p>

<p>rip in pieces… 33 on act… time to retake in february!!!</p>

<p>I’m submitting an essay to Scholastics, I think. My Adv Creative Writing teacher is making everyone in our class submit.</p>

<p>I’m getting annoyed. Khan Academy is making me cry. xD</p>

<p>I’m trying to get all of my scores above a 690. Math is the only one that still needs improvement.</p>

<p>I’ve asked this on this thread before, but how are you all dealing with life right now? I get ~4 hours of sleep at night, and sometimes I feel like I’m not actually in my own reality and will randomly get mood swings. I really don’t know how I’m going to get through the rest of junior year…</p>

<p>@glasshours‌ </p>

<p>Hang in there! Is it at all possible to get more sleep?</p>

<p>I’m cut down to about 6-7 hours, so not too bad, but I know if I actually focused, instead of getting distracted, I would be able to get more sleep. </p>

<p>@Woandering‌ I’m in the exact same position, but if I got motivated and focus I think my mom would start to wonder what happened to me.</p>

<p>@glasshours
At the end of every night, no matter how late it is, I throw a mini solo 3 min dance party in my room to celebrate making it through another school day and finishing another night’s homework. Also meditating relieves stress, but it’s not nearly as fun as dancing. :)</p>

<p>@glasshours It’s actually has been going great this year. I’m consistently getting about 6-7 hours of sleep which is a lot better than last year. I just wish I had some ECs but at least I’m having fun weekends. </p>

<p>@ThatPurpleKoala Yeah, but I really want to get focused and finish my homework quickly, because I want to do a ton of reading, both fiction and nonfiction. I occasionally have mini-depressions because I don’t get to read as much as I did in middle school. </p>

<p>I get enough sleep. I work on the weekends so I find myself taking naps a lot to make up for the fatigue.</p>

<p>Need to improve my organization and time management skills. Went to sleep earlier than usual last night. Despite being sick, for once I didn’t have too much trouble waking up in the morning. Felt so gooooood. :slight_smile: </p>
