Overwhelmed

Sound the alarm, I said SOUND THE ALARM! Finals are upon me, and what a shame that is. The only good thing is that school ends in a month, yes June 9th.

My Algebra II EOC was today, the 50 questions took me 2 hours and 15 minutes. I started at 10:30 and ended around 12:45. I don't even understand heckow I took that long. My problem is that I know the material but internally freak out and doubt myself.

Again, this happened a few days ago during my Honors Chemistry test. I thought I knew what I was doing but I did the exact opposite. It's just so incredibly frustrating because I study for hours, pay attention in class, and do my homework but still don't understand/can't do well on the tests.

Finally, the mother of all tests, my AP US History exam is next Wednesday. This is my main focus. I feel like I can do well but I don't know because it is a college level test.

Oh yeah, and I forgot we started doing yearbook layouts in Journalism. I love writing (obviously.. I have a blog) and that's what we've been doing for the first 3 quarters of Journalism. This quarter is all about yearbook layout. I can't grasp what we have to do for some reason. I try to be creative and I have great ideas but I feel like everything is so cluttered. My amazing friends, Amy and Nicole, have helped me, and I want to thank them so much. Amy, you helped be figure out the layout (and we talk about spoken word poetry) and Nicole because your little bits of comedy through out my sighs and frustration make me smile. I know I'll get it eventually but all I want to do is write because that's what I need to do among all this other stress.


I'm really sorry if this made no sense whatsoever. I just need a spot to vent and this is a place where I can. I promise some more "exciting" blog posts will come once finals and EOC's are done.


Thanks guys
