Buttercup, don't feel like none of us know what you're going through. I'm a Junior. I'm going through the worst year of high school, what with worrying about my grades, the SAT I's, the SAT II's, the ACT, and the dreaded English term paper.

I know. It's tough. You feel like giving up half the time. But here's one thing that separates the achievers from the wishers: Commitment.

You have to commit. You can't settle for C's and D's. You have to want yourself to succeed and you have to commit to that. How many hours do you spend on Pet Talk? Cut it down to half, and spend the rest of that time studying. I really shouldn't be on PT right now, but I know myself and my schedule well enough to budget my time efficiently. There are days when I skip using the computer for many days. Sacrifice your computer and your current job before you sacrifice your education and a hope of a better life.

Don't quit school!!!!

Alicia, if you ask anyone in high school on here, we all know what you're going through. I know, it's tough. I just started Freshmen year, although we have to go through all the 8th grade crap, I know it is going to get harder. MUCH harder, whenever you advance to another grade. Aren't you a senior? If so, then just finish this year off. It'll do you good, and it can't hurt. Although you may be stressing right now with it, this will be your last year of school, you DON'T need to go to college but as everyone said finish High School. I get B's and C's and D's to. Hey, it's still passing. As long as you pass, you'll be fine.
