<p>Sometimes I'm just so overwhelmed with everything.
I'm president of a club, I do a sport, I play an instrument.
I have 1 AP and 5 Honors, and I'm a sophomore
And I have a legitimate social life.
I know that isn't much compared to half the geniuses on here (if they are really that smart or are just pretending for the sake of this website), but for the rest of us normal people who actually have a life and are willing to live a fun life along with succeeding, it's a lot to think about.
It's so much stuff to think about. If a grade goes up in one class, it'll go down in another.
I'm just so stressed out.
College is the only thing on my mind right now, and it's affecting my social life, my love life, my friend life, and all my other lives.</p>
<p>I feel you. I’ve been in a depressed mood for the past two weeks because of my hectic schedule: tennis 3 days a week, 5 APs, debate (when I can), and a few minor clubs. It’s not easy. I’m a sophomore too.</p>
<p>We’ll get through it together. 
It’ll be worth it when we get into that top university.</p>
<p>I remember seeing someone post this</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Choose wisely!</p>
<p>Oh you do not know how much I love you right now. Sometimes it’s just so much you want to throw everything off a cliff and jump off right after them.</p>

haha true!! :)</p>
<p>Lately I’ve been wanting to be extremely violent, like throw my books across the hall, but I can’t because my body won’t let me since I’m just too disciplined and respectful towards my books and my school. I want to punch something really hard, and make it hurt. I just don’t have the heart… </p>
<p>which is why I like to spill everything to one of my teachers who’s like my mentor. It helps to get advice from an adult that you can trust.</p>

Punch a pillow maybe?</p>
<p>That’s so true. I feel you, I’m writing an English paper and I want to throw my laptop outside the window.
yeah, sometimes i vent to my friends or my grandmother, and it does really help.</p>
<p>@TheKongo If I punch a pillow, it’s not going to hurt the pillow —> pointless lol</p>
<p>Surprisingly, I’m finished with my homework. I just have to finish reading about 60 pages of this boring book… and yes, I am procrastinating. :/</p>
<p>*procrastinating on CC = a real dork</p>
<p>^love
10char</p>
<p>Well. atleast I’m not the only one :)</p>
<p>I’m behind in every subject (5 AP classes) and my band schedule only gives me ~1 hour every day to do school work…</p>
<p>The stress…my school is like a mental asylum for overachievers who slit their wrists when they get A’s…instead of A+'s -___-</p>
<p>On Friday’s after school, I used to go to football games, etc. But now I drive straight home and sleep from 4pm til Saturday afternoon…literally.</p>
<p>I know, it seems like the more time passes the more you loose control over EVERYTHING.</p>
<p>you talking to me? and yeah i know. you need it to succeed.
But essentially we are all human. And sometimes we need a break alright?</p>
<p>You’re only a sophomore. Take a deep breath. You don’t need to worry about college for another year. Try to enjoy these last moments of life where you don’t have to pay bills or feed your family.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Believe me, it is a lot compared to half the geniuses on here.</p>
<p>…Sometimes, I want to throw everybody on CC off a cliff…</p>
<p>Kidding! Kidding!..</p>
<p>^ I wouldn’t be kidding about that. js</p>
<p>Yeah. But if I want to be able to pay bills, and feed my family, I need to start worrying from now.</p>
