This past school year was really pressuring...all the drama and fights and friends and boys...especially for me...1)people always say im "perfect" which really gets on my nerves (but i don't show it) because IM NOT! 2) my friend likes this boy and she was too shy to talk to him so I had to...and then theres friends who are leaving...it's so sad! and stressful...how do i deal with the pressure?

ah, deal with it. its gonna be haunting you for a long time, maybe you should shout it to them, "Im not perfect, leave me the hell alone. im just like everyone else, dont treat me any different, blah blah blah!" don't let this stuff get you down. you'll get through it, it comes in the package of being an adolescent!

Wow, I was in the exact same situation.

1. Eventually, teachers noticed how uncomfortable I was when people called me "genius" in class, and they threatened to put everyone in detention if they didn't stop. Naturally, they did stop, in class at least.

2. When someone tells me I'm "perfect", I ask them not to describe me like that. Sometimes I have to explain why, but most people have stopped.

3. Actually, eventually, I told the guy why I was talking to him. He started talking to my friend, so I got out of that situation.

4. You can always keep in touch with friends. My best friend moved 5 hours away, but we call regularly, email, use AIM, and visit.

Sorry, I can't really help.
[I handled the whole thing badly, at the time.]

dis year hab been like dat too...well i jus deal wid it..o wells...life is complicated so i jus smile nd dink bout happiee dings

jus face it and look at it positively, always think that things coulda been worst

that's exactly what I had in mind..

Yeah. I got into a lot of fights too. But after a while, I ended most of them

I even made friends with some of my old sworn enemies!!

Scream into a pillow. It makes me feel great. Haha.

Ya just gotta move on in life.. Life isn't alwayz perfect...Gotta deal wit it..

mayb u should just try to forget about it, nd think that you WILL make it throu. cuz when u look bac to all of it, u wunt believe wut lil stuff dey were compared to wut u hav to go throu in the future. dats just how i dink..

for me i try to help my family and friends if they really needs it. if everything just piles up, as Frankie in Real World: San Diego says, I'd just run the f*ck away, just run the f*ck away. If everything is over flowing, i run to my bathroom, sit in the corner, and cry. cry cry cry thts wht i do but then again im a cry baby who runs away...dont be like me..
