Knowing who came up with gradualism will never help anyone in a laboratory setting.
ah - iām normally fearless with my outfit choices and pretty confident in my outward appearance (the only thing i really am confident about). but after what happened with both of you, i keep second-guessing myself.
and whatās worse is iām not even sure if iām just imagining things - would i even be important enough to be made fun of? doesnāt it show that iām narcissistic and dumb for thinking of myself as the one whoās being mocked whenever the two of you pass by me?
Why do you all think youāre the greatest person in the world just because theyāre taking 7 AP classes and are secretary of some club? Stop acting like youāre superior to the rest of the school. Thatās not what colleges are looking for (and clearly thatās all you care about). And while youāre at it, open your eyes to how many bridges youāve burned trying to become the best.
You did such a great job! Nobody could tell that youād ever been worried.
I hate comparing myself to others but I do it anyway WHy
And I have to beat people in competitions but why
I feel terrible that I rely on your headbands to tell you apart; I encounter the same problem!
i hate that school has become a power trip.
i hate that i donāt feel enough running for 2, maybe 3 or 4 positions - even if theyāre for organizations iām passionate about - because iām not like her, taking 6 ap classes and doing sports and leading like 50 other clubs. i exaggerate, but iām just so tired.
i wish i remembered days when school was about doing things you loved and that would be enough, even if you didnāt measure up to the best in your class. but now it just feels like some stomp over others to get ahead, and it makes me sad, because it makes me doubt that i can go places just by being nice.
getting real tired of doing things because theyāll look good on a college app and not because they make me happy or because theyāre what i want to do
it shouldnāt have taken me this long to start to realize that iām good enough and that i donāt have to compare myself to others or feel like Iām not doing high school correctly.
i just want to live a good life
i am more than just student council or clubs or APs or honors

No more food in class or else detentions? How am I supposed to survive starvation for 6 hours? Why is this such a big deal? I understand the peanut allergies problem and sanitation and āair qualityā but really??? I need food to concentrate or else my stomach is going to growl to be known it needs its fix on food. I NEED TO EAT IN CLASS
I actually hate student council so much, but I stay on it for college apps.
Sad, but true.
this was me earlier in the year!! ^^ but now iām really enjoying student council.
I WISH INTELLIGENCE SQUAREDāS UPCOMING DEBATES WERE ABOUT SCIENCE/TECH INSTEAD OF BUSINESS/HUNTERS T_T
ALSO I WISH BERNIE WAS DOING BETTER IN THE DEBATE
Why are you everywhere? Chill
^^^who, me?
My pupper, my doggo, I hope you get well.

I know the path that I want to take to medical school ā it takes four years. The one my dad wants me to follow for āsafetyā and because heās afraid I wonāt get into medical school (in summary, purely illogical, baseless reasons) takes at least 6 years. My mom is on my side, but my dad is stuck-upā¦ Sheās said this evening that she wants to divorce him if he protests and refuses to pay for college. I feel like my world is coming downā¦ againā¦

Sure thing, pal
Sometimes I wish there wasnāt so much stigma attached to schooling. Also I wish I could just make choices without being ridiculed. Iām taking APUSH next year and I told my friend I was taking regular US history but then I changed my mind. I havenāt told her because Iām afraid sheāll be mad that I ditched her for an AP class. Sheāll get mad at me for talking about how Iām tired because I stayed up late working on an optional project and stuff like that and it annoys me so much. I know It shouldnāt have to be this way and I hate that it is ):&:
I really donāt care about your opinions. Iām so sorry Iām taking a class thatās āfor the weak,ā but I enjoy it and am doing well. And just because Iām doing APs, Iām showing off?! Thatās pretty hypocritical of you. No wonder everyone trashes you behind your back.
āYou canāt apply to Stanford, Iām going to Stanford.ā
That was painful to hear. I thought I was your friend, not just competition. What makes you think I care about where you say I can or canāt apply? To be honest, I have more of a chance of getting in anyway. Last year you hadnāt even heard of Stanford. If I believed in calling dibs, I called dibs on Stanford a long time ago. But now Iām not really interested in going there and I donāt know if itās because Iām genuinely not interested or because Iām worried about hurting your pathetic feelings.
Also, you claim that my safety, which has a 71% acceptance rate is a reach for me just shows how jealous you really are. Iām sorry your inferiority complex is that bad.
