On the other hand, I know better than most how the pressure you put yourself under feels if you want to be the best. Neither 10 nor 14 points are enough if there are 15.
Experience has shown me: it is always a good way to let teachers know if you help other students. Does your teacher know about that? If not, try to let him/her know. Don't brag about it but don't do it secretly either.
I see you want those shining fifteen points, what about a 20 minute long presentation? About something you are interested in? Please, please talk to your teacher rather today than tomorrow. They need to know about your passion!
And one last word, my elem. teacher once said I would never be able to properly say anything in English and some years later I got my translator, foreign language secretary and foreign language correspondence certificate. Oh and btw, I got back to highschool as well. And I want to be an English teacher. No matter what any teacher says and no matter if I get 10 or 15 points. I do a lot of mistakes and that's fine! That's part of learning and part of everyone's lives.
Those marks don't say a thing about your passion. Marks don't say a lot after all. And someday you'll forget about those ten points. They won't matter in a year, that's a promise! Many teachers have lost their passion years ago.

Take today. Choosing our partners to peer-edit essays? Before you know it, everyone's partnered up and working together, except me. No one notices me crying, not even the teacher notices. I still don't have a partner. This kind of thing happens almost once a week.
But the worst part is yet to come. Passing between fifth and sixth periods, I slip and fall on a slick wooden walkway (it's been rainy here this week). I fall pretty hard, and a bunch of people see. But no one helps me up. No one even asks if I'm okay. And I'm not okay. I fell hard on my right hand, my dominant hand, and sprained it. I can't write, or worse, draw, my go-to stress relieving activity. And who knows how long it'll take to heal -- last time I had a hand/wrist sprain it took two and a half weeks. And no one even cares.
I'm crying as I type this.

It feels like when I try to stand up for me theirs a mirror in front of me that yells strait back at me for standing up for myself. I can't go on much longer

I said it was a mistake
Besides, it was good for the computer.
You know everything auto-saves with google drive,
so why, why did you tell almost everyone who would listen?!

I let him use my computer charger and today he is sick and I feel like he's gonna lose it. And guess whose fault it is... Mine... And I have to pay for it :l I take full responsibility for it. I hope they just give me another D:

"I've been dating my girlfriend since Christmas Eve, so it's really a baby relationship. Between then and now, I've started meeting resolutions, making goals, and finding myself. So much so to the point that I have found that this isn't really something I want or need right now. However, I'm attached to them and don't want to break their heart. They have nightmares about me leaving and are head over heels, I know. I warned them I was worried I wouldn't get too invested, and I really, really enjoy their company but I cannot envision myself with them in the future, which I know is a huge red flag on my end. What do I do? How do I let them down easy? PM me please?"

the only reason i do anything is to impress others. my self image is based off of what others say. im always there for everyone always putting them before myself but theres never someone there for me when im having a hard time
because damn how hard is it to get some friends who actually enjoy having you around and dont make you feel unwanted??? i know im annoying and ugly and a showoff but all i want is someone who doesnt think im a nusiance
im just ready to give up and become that empty shell again.im tired of tying so hard
sorry i just had to get that out, feel free to ignore

So basically one of the posts a picture of a woman's rear end on his wall. And when I tell him it's inappropriate and sexist. He blocks me. And then Nick tells me that I am to much stress for him and he doesn't want to be my friend anymore.
*sigh*
