My mind wonders during school. Mostly about my current bf and how I want to like talk to him or w/e. I used to be an A student now I'm a C student. It's not like I can avoid guys completley. What should I do about?

set aside time everyday that you will devote to school work
tell him about your grades
and if hes a good bf, he'll understand that you need to work on school and not spend as much time w/ him. [ sweetxcatastrophe's advice column | Ask sweetxcatastrophe A Question ]

i know its hard not thinking about him...
i wouldnt know exactly about it because i never had a bf... but i think having a major is crush is just about same ...except crushing is only a fantasy =)
well, if you keep up those grades (Cs) your parents might not let you see him ...it had happened before,,, parents not lettin a girl see a boy because of bad grades, or vice versa.
SO here is what you do.
1. go get a new Planner or PDA (Personal Data Assisntant)
2. and write it down all you need to do in there...
3. after school and your rendavue with your BF, always check your planner/PDA.
4. Get the home work or whatever done since you reminded your self,
5. Check it off when you are done with it. so you dont have to do same thing twice (ive done that )
but i am not saying this will be easy, because gettin C to A is hard, but not for you because you were former A student, but even though you were, you gotta put some effort to it.
so get in habit of using PLanner/PDA.
its fun and technical when you use it =)
and remember, if you dont do this, where it might end up ...
and HECK NO you dont have to avoid guys.
Just do your work. and ooh yea,,,
make a daily schedule.
like wake up at certain time.
breakfast..
school
hangout time (lasts hour to 2 hours)
HOMEWORK TIME (lasts 2 hour to 3,unless you get done early or when it gets delayed)
Dinner
hangout time
Sleep
see that wasnt so hard. and get in habit of doing that too. so your life will be more organized and it seem like you have lots of time hanging out. and if you your homework done early, its more hanging out time for ya =)

That is normal for you to be thinking about your boyfriend,and I hope he is nice to you and thinking about him puts a smile on your face. Adults think about someone they love too, when things are good.
But what about those grades? How did you feelwhen you were getting A's? DId you feel good about yourself. Were you proud of yourself, and were your parents proud of you? How does it feel now that your grades are below what you know you can do? It must make you anxious or you wouldn't be asking? It is wonderful to have a boyfriend. But he is not going to be the one who is going to be looking to get into college,or looking to get a good paying job when school is over with THOSE grades. You are. He may have his own "grade" problems or not, but those are his grades. Like it or not, when you are a young adult, (and you will be some day soon.) You are going to be judged on your grades, on your abilities, and on your competance, and on how smart you are. NOT on whether or not you have a boyfriend, or two or a dozen. That won't matter. You want to have money, you want to have nice clothes, you want to have a nice car and a nice boyfriend. Well the boyfriends are usually free, and they stay with you because you are nice (and hopefully they are too!) You won't be able to get the other things without a good education and good prospects for a good job or college. Some kids work real hard and the best they can do is a C average. Being able to get A;s and not bothering, is a waste of your talents. Better grades and doing well in school, then college will OPEN MORE DOORS for you in the future.
SO just try to dicipline yourself to do better in school. Set aside some time for school and some time for the boyfriend. Just like adults do. Married couples, no matter how much in love they are, can't spend all their time together. They have bills to pay and food to buy and they need their jobs, and they are usually separated 8 to10hours a day. If they spend all their time at work daydreaming about their spouse,they'd soon loose their jobs and then were wouldthey be. In love, but broke.
I hope this makes some sense to you. Being mature means taking your responsibilities seriously. And having fun after the work is done.
I know it's boring, butit makes life more managable. Good luck to you and your current boy friend.
