Hi vent time Okay so my life has been a stress bomb recently. My schoolwork is out of hand. I have never seen anything like this. I can't keep up. I'm in 8th grade, and the amount ELA homework I get is unreal. I also get huge civics assignments, which take hours. And then there's math. I'm in 10th grade math, and I get homework every night. Not only that, but hard homework. And I have a test this week on it. And I'm not ready. And there's chorus. I love chorus. I love to sing, and I love music. But I can't, and I mean can't, sing in front of my parents. They are so judgy, so...hard...that they make me feel self-conscious. I know it's probably all in my head, but I mean it when I say my parents have NEVER heard me sing before and doing it now would be horrible. Why am I saying this? I have a chorus assessment due in a couple of hours. I also have boatloads of homework due then too. So I have to do my chorus assessment now. But my family has given me no time, and now I'm stuck. And my mother thinks that I should sing in front of her, but does she have any idea how hard it is? How much confidence it takes for me to do that? And I'm shy. Really shy. And this is really hard. I can't. I just can't. And then there's science. We are working on a big project. Huge. Gonna take up half of my grade. I'm paired with two other people. They aren't doing anything to help me out. I'm going to get an F. I can't fail. My parents will kill me. So I'm stuck with everything. This is causing so much stress, so much pain and so much time is wasted. And my best friend isn't in my group, which makes things even worse. BECAUSE MY BEST FRIEND ACTUALLY GETS STUFF DONE. AND IS ALWAYS THERE TO HELP ME.
I know I sound like a baby, but this is causing way to much stress. I can't handle it. I may take a break from scratch. Just during the day. I may be less inactive than I was. Writing this made me feel better I think that's good
