Maxed Out

Okay, I now know what it feels like to be minutes away from having a cardiac arrest at the age of 17. I have way too much stress on my shoulders right now. Besides the fact that I have writer's block for one of my favorite stories that is also going down south; I can't find the time to sit, relax and reply to my other story that's being a strain because too much is going on-I have school.

Agh.

My speech that is a HUGE chunk of my grade and also FOUR minutes in front of a class of kids, STARING at you because they have nothing better to do is MONDAY. One day away. Oh, and did I mention I had to write an essay and MEMORIZE it for the speech? It's a four page essay. Yeah. Three pages when its single spaced.

Then on top of that, my Choir teacher is INSANE. He expects us to memorize German and French pieces by TUESDAY. Really now? I took Spanish for two and a half years. Do you really think GERMAN is going to stick?

Agh.

Now add Algebra 2 and this new unit that we're working on. I aced the last test...now I'm not so sure. And I don't have time-nor the will- to go to tutoring because quite frankly, it's gotten to the point that I don't even want to look at school or even hear my teacher's voice sometimes. I'm so sick of this. And the weekends aren't long enough.

I have a reading assignment that I have to draw a comic strip for; TAKS test is on Wednesday...Agh. Three hours of testing for a JOKE. I don't even know why we bother anymore. My Pre-AP History class LAUGHED at the TAKS test when we got it. It was ridiculously easy.

Really, teachers and parents don't understand the position we're in. This isn't the old days. This isn't when having a fourth science or taking speech, BCIS, or any other ridiculous class was an option. This is NOW. Life tribulations, drama, being a teenager period AND school crap is HARD to do twenty four seven. Summer doesn't come fast enough and I swear, I will scream!

Thanks for listening to my vent(:

Song of the day: No Time To Breathe by There for Tomorrow.
This explains how I feel EXACTLY. Not to mention I am now obsessed with this band.
