i seriously have been stressing lately. i used to be a a+b student in eighth grade. now ive been slacking lately. my freshmen year ive had as,bs,cs, and ds. now sophomore year went the same. now its junior year and ive added 2 fs to my collection. i havent been studying for test anymore. and i hand in my projects late. im only in danger of failing chemistry. idk i just feel like shit. i feel like my life is over after high school. i dont see my life taking a direction after high school. my grades arent good enough to guarantee me a scholarship. and im really gonna miss high school and my friends. i feel like im not ready to graduate. i cry at night cause of that shit. i feel like these years went too fast. and i didnt have any time to have the fun high school was supposed to offer. to me, life is moving too fast. high schools almost done, and my only chance is going to lincoln tech to study to be a mechanic.

am i the only person who feels like this?? i need someone to talk to :(
 
welcome to my world . and i just turned 22!

i think there are alot of people on this board who feel the same as you do.
you right your life is going to by fast. everyones does. but at least you know that at a young age. i didnt realize my life was moving so fast till about a year ago.

honestly man. dont stress about anything at your age right now. try to find something in your life that makes your happy right now. savor the moments. enjoy the rest of your time in high school. cause when its over your going to wish you were back there again with your friends.

why dont you have the tie to have fun in high school? do you work ?

is being a mechanic what you want to do?

you wanna talk about being depressed? i've been making plans for the past 6 months to start school in FL. first time living in a seperate state from my parents. my first day of class is 23rd of this month. i was just about to get an apt when about 2 weeks ago my mom's boss unfailry fired her. ive been walking around pissed, angry, and depressed for 2 weeks (on top of that i've been in and out of depression for last 4years) cause my plans got all fucked up cause some dumb ass mom and pop business wants to fire my mom so they can give their good friend a job. she house sits for them and practically runs their movie production company. and takes care of their pets, shes been working for them over 3 years. in october she is going to graduate with her degree too, so why they couldnt wait a few months is beyond us.

so now i have to put school off till probably october. and thats if my dad's union contract gets renewed in sept.
i have no job, no money. but i live ghetto fab with 2 dope ass cars. with about a quarter tank of gas in each. (i'm selling a 94 chevy camaro if any one is interested)

the only friends that i thought i had turns out to be hipocritacal dickheads, that talk shit about me behind your back but are all smiles too my face or are just flat out rude when others are around on purpose just for the sake of trying to be a dick and thinking its funny. even when im usualy a generous, giving, and a pretty nice laid back guy.

find something that makes you happy and stick with it till it doesnt make u happy anymore. you need some kind of outlet

for me its always been music , if its creating, playing, or listening. alot times what helps me is a nice playlist on my ipod or cd, and nice long walk with my dog.
 
Sorry, I sympathize but I can't really empathize.

Just letting you know that someone has read it & you're not being ignored.

Somebody here will have something good to tell you, but it's not me. :(

Edit: Phew, you can ignore me, as others have stepped up.
 
I feel exactly the same. These past 2 years or so my life has really gone to shits.
I'm probably gonna fail maths. I really don't want to but I'm just a dumb arse so I will lol

I just hate the way my life is right now. How my love life is something you'd expect from a 40 year old but at the same time I'm like a desperate little girl :( that's mainly why I feel like crap and why I can't concentrate at all on school work. :/
 
yeah i definatley feel what you sayin trus me life waits for no one man it aint cool to know but its true i already feel old at 18 dammit since i left school ive blinked and two years have jus gone straight its crazy im tryin to make serious moves now to make life more enjoyable and make myself know im tryin to live life to the fullest all i can say is start enjoyin and makin da most of ya time jus try and enjoy tings and go out and live everyday cause on a whole different level we could be gone tomorrow sounds harsh but true
 
i dont have the time to have fun any more because im done being a junior already. im gunna be a senior and i feel like high school went by too fast. i love cars, thats the reason why i want to become a mechanic. its the only thing that makes me happy, but since i dont even have a car yet i cant drive to lincoln tech very often since its like 10-15 miles away. i dont have any money for the bus. i wish i had a part time job right now, but nobody's responded to my applications. i could ask my mom for money but she just came out of bankruptcy and i dont want to pressure her.


thats fucked up that they fired your mom. i hope their business fails now for doing that :thumb:
 
i hear ya on the applications thing man. i actually had a sweet gig for a min. i was going to be hired as the asst manager at sam goody but i decided that since the owner and manager of the store was flat out shit head i wasnt going to work there plus i was thinking i was going to be moving in a months time so why not just lay back and enjoy life for the moment? i'm kicking myself in the ass right now.

we should have a compition between the two of use. we should see who can put in the most applications over the next week. neither of us will have anything to lose. if anything we'll not only gain a job, but experience in getting out there and applying ourselves.

its summer time lots of places hiring new people. plus if you stick with it and keep a job through your sr year you'll have a ride in no time.
 
also, i dont know if it would help you out , but sometimes when i get real down, as much as i hate to think about it, i got to remember that no matter how bad i my think shit sucks for me right now or how shitty i think my life is, there really are people out there in our country and other countries that have it a lot worse than we do. people rotting away from hunger, slavery (unfortunatly still goes on today in some countries), living in a 3rd world country that still has diseases that were curred in this country generations ago. it sucks to think about those type of things but it can help to make you think about the things you take for granet (sp? stay in school or you wont be able to spell like me) ,think about whats important in life.

but i'm starting to ramble..

How hard is to get a job over there?


depends i guess, when i lived in illinois i could get jobs easy with out hardly even trying. when i moved to kentucky. it took me almost 3 months to find my first job. then when i moved out of my parents house last year and moved closer too school it took me about 2 or 3 months again to find a job in the city i moved too. i just moved back when my parents last month so i should be getting a job anytime now :D
 
i dont know how the school system in the U.S. works but over here pretty much only your final year (gr 12) matters.
if u feel like u need another year to improve your gr 12 marks, take it. a lot of people i know are doing it
if u dont need university u can always do an apprentinceship
or you can always join the army
 
its pretty hard to find a job in nj. ive given in like 3 applications and noones called yet lol.

i've tried commiting suicide, and went into depression, due to my past coming back at me :( from past abuse and such, it just weighed my mind down till a point where i couldn't take life any more, or how i looked to other people. (i'm overweight) i was in the hosiptial for 3 weeks recently though, and have been taking medication for my problems, i am currently out of the hospital, but am still on the medication. i also know how u feel bout your future, i have no idea what i am doing once i leave school, and am having a tough time finding a job here, but i am happy to report i find my life is becoming much better after hospital time and the on going counsilling :) :thumb:

pick up your balls and stop crying. this is how the world is, if you're gonna stay like this theres no way in hell you're gonna make it. you're still very young and you havent seen shit yet. if you're not ready when worse shit happen, well..... that's it for you. you're gonna live like this for the rest of your life.

i know all these things because i've been through alot. and dont tell me this bullshit about not knowing how it feels like. i was just like you,and i know now, if i stayed the same id be fuckin miserable now and for the rest of my life. nothing is impossible. you're fuckin up in school, well you need to work harder, either that or just forget about it all together and drop out. there's no time to waste. figure out what you wanna do,then work on it. theres no miracles that will fall out of the sky. you have to work with every ounce of your energy.


you got either 2 options

1. take my advice

or


2. find a rich girl and get married right now
