reduce stress (read all 2 entries…)
Untitled 2 months ago

WTF.

My grades are just nasty. I can’t get the grades that I want. I know I’m smarter than this but for one reason or another, that just won’t show.

I will never be optimistic about an exam ever again. Every time I try to look on the bright side, I end up getting worse grades. WTF.



know what to do with a broken friendship
Untitled 3 months ago

I have absolutely NOOOOOOOO idea what to do with this stupid situation. It’s too complicated a situation to type out right now and I’ve gotten so sick of thinking and talking about it that I fear I might be losing any good feelings about what’s left of the relationship.

To put it simply, I have never had bitchier “friends.” And one is such a follower, it’s ridiculous.
