Final Stretch

This week was really stressful for me. Coming back from spring break was obviously really hard but I'm also so sad that we are really in the final stretch of our high school careers. I decided to do my Twelfth Night project alone and all in all, I'm very happy with the result. As far as Will's final, happy would be a very blatant lie. I have never done so badly on a test in my entire life. I personally feel as though his class is a little bit ridiculous. But that's probably just because I have never felt so stupid in a class in all of my years of school. I'm really hoping that I can survive the required math classes in college and then never ever have to do it again. I'm definitely struggling with the quiz corrections. If I couldn't correctly answer them on the test, why on earth would I be able to do them now? It's all just really frustrating to me. I wish that the concepts would just click for me as I practiced, however they still all seem to be in a foreign language to me. All week I've just been really jealous of Alex and the fact that he was in Athens having fun, while I was at school and work. Work has been really overwhelming lately. It's almost as though the more pressure I feel from school and the more time I need to spend studying and doing projects, the more my boss seems to feel I need to be at work. I thought that people said second semester of senior year was supposed to be fun and stress free? For me at least, I have had anything but that experience.
