yeah, gpas are stupid. You have a report card in elementary school and middle school, but then as soon as you become a teenager, you get a GPA in high school. people are always saying that your GPA has to be AS PERFECT AS POSSIBLE but they also act like it's way too hard to get straight As and a 4.0 so *shrugs*

But then your high school GPA only helps you get into college or into a job before/during college. After that, you get a College GPA and you have to work your butt off for those grades all over again. And depending on the school you go to, you can have all A's and still have below a 4.0 GPA (*points at my one A- that has now brought me down to like a 3.8*)

Thank goodness for extra credit because apparently it's possible to get above a 4.0 if you inflate your grade (*points at the A+ because i got over 100% of the points possible in a class*)

So, yeah, they're pretty weird and basically pressure you to do even better than your best. No problem with that, but I was super upset to hear that your high school GPA doesn't matter too much once you've started college classes. TTuTT

apologies for the terrible "advice" TT-TT
 

hey, it's cool. I feel the same way, but because of gas prices going down. TT-TT like, world war III will break out because I had a sinking feeling about $1.89 gas and I didn't warn anybody.

so, i know that feeling is hard to shake, but at least you'll be a bit more prepared than someone who had that feeling for a minute and forgot about it. like, if anything does happen, you will be the least surprised and thus the first to act. it's gonna be okay

omg im sorry that sounds so hard id probably mix them up haa
THATS SO WEIrd.... like here its report card and at some schools a gpa that goes up to 15 - thats ridiculously biased - but not all schools. in uni to get honours you need gpa 6.5+ tho

haha thanks. yeah i guess so i mean i wouldn't want to be surprised with bad news so >.>

i do all the time, like with the two second languages i'm always like "ok this is how i'd translate this sentence oh wait wrong language nvm" XD XD

ohmygosh yes
i speak three languages and i always speak tamil in french class and french to my tamil-speaking grandmother and its soooooo confusing

I Just Heard My Mom Talkking To My Sistesr About Seasonal Affective Disorder And How People With Depression End Up Fighting Off "these Depressive Moods For The Rest Of Their Life" And I'm So Scared Because I Reminded Her About The E-mail Last Night. If She Read It Already, She Probalby Thinks There's Something Wrong With Me. And I Even Mentioned Sad In The E-mail So I'm Not Sure If She Knew That Already Or If She Just Learned About It Because I Said I Might Have It. Guys I'm Dead. I'm So Dead. She's Going To Think I'm Telling Myself I Have A Serious Problem. What If She Doesn't Get Me Help. I've Been Lying To Myself All Week That She's Going To Read The E-mail And Get Me Some Help. I'm So Scared And I Don't Even Know What To Do Except Go On The Interent And Yell At Strangers While Constantly Misspelling Things And Hoping That My Desperate Caps Lock Style Stays. But Reallly I'm So Dead And I'm Afraid To Get Up And Get A Snack Now Because I'll Have To Go Face Her And Talk To Her

(*hugs super tight*) shh it'll be okay. believe me, i know how this feels. take some deep breaths, hug a stuffed animal, just do your best to calm down. you can try to reason with her, right? or maybe with someone else in the family who can help you convince her that you do need some real help?

So over the summer my depression started getting really bad. And then, very slowly it started getting better. And for a few months I actually started feeling pretty good again. And then it got bad again. Really bad. And I started talking to this guy and somehow he helps my depression but I'm so scared because the way he's talking and, well, I can't put it on the internet and I can't tell anyone and God I can't do that but if I stop talking to him the depression is going to swallow me alive again and I don't want to go back there D:
