I thought that everything was going so wrong and that my life was a mess but trust me, it gets better. School and friends can be so complicating. Trying to keep up with both can get really hard and it makes you want to give up. Math was never my best subject, and to this day, I'm horrible at it. The best and smartest thing you can do is to get some help. Stay after school couple of times and ask your teacher to explain it one more time. That way you will catch up. Don't be embarassed because you have to do that, it will help you out a lot. You can also get a tutor. Ask your parents for help. A friend that is really good in math. Anything that will help you stay focused to pass the class. My parents used to compare me with other kids and say why can't you be more like them and it used to get to me pretty bad. I told them, I'm not like them and I never will be. You might as well get used to that by now. Sure they'll say that now and then, but that's just how parents are. No matter what, they still love you the same.

You will have good times and pretty bad times with your friends. Some will backstab you, spread rumors about you so you have to be careful. You can't always trust everyone no matter how sweet they are. People do change and that is one of the things you will have to get used to in life. You can't do anything about it.

I know that life may be really hard right now but you'll do fine. Things will get harder but you just have to be confident that you can deal with everything. School will get harder. There are going to be arguments and fight with friends.. and parents but that's just life and it's not always fair. [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
