First off, forget about your exboyfriend. He's your ex for a reason. He's in your past. Let him stay there. By concentrating on him & letting your feelings about him get to you, you're taking your focus away from what's really important. School. Cut him out of your life completely. You can't afford to fail because of a boy. Especially because of a boy. They're not important. School is. In order to do this, stop talking to him. Stop being his friend. [I'm assuming that you talk & are friends.] Delete him off of your buddylist. Delete him from MySpace or Facebook. Whichever you use. Delete his number from your cell phone if you've got one.

Once you've done that, focus on school. Do all of the worksheets in class. Pay attention to what the teachers are saying. Take lots of notes. Make flashcards as a study routine. When you get home, don't go to your computer, the tv, or the kitchen. Go straight to a quiet place & do your homework. Finish it all. Bring your notes home so you have them to refer to when you need them, or when you don't get something. Bring your books home. Make a list to yourself about what you need so that you don't forget anything at school. When you're done with all of your homework, put it back into your bookbag & proceed to do the things you usually do when you get home. If you don't get something, practice it more or stay after for extra help. Maybe get your teachers email so you can email them if you have a problem. If you don't get something, try it anyways. Teachers like it when you try, even if you don't get the answer. Instead of waiting til class that day, see them in the morning when you get to school. Maybe you can work on the problems together for the solution & they can go over it with you some more. =) Good luck.

Hey!
It looks like its one of those times where life is just totall sucking eh? Well we can get you through this.
As far as the first bit, the F's that sucks. Last semester I had math and I had a horrible mark, and I just tried really hard, tell your parents that you are going to try hard, but you need some support, and see if they can help with that.
Talk to your teachers, and set up times to ask them for help. Tell them you're totally serious you want to get your act together and you really need their help. Take time to study each night, even if you dont have homework, study ahead so that way when you get to a test you can actually be prepared (I'm horrible for that lol)
As far as the exboyfriend thing, I have alot of moving on tips, if you want them let me know.
I think the biggest thing right now, is get your mind straight, right now life isnt going so great, but it will get better, you just need to try and think positively and concentraite on the good rather than the bad. When you're depressed think about five great things that are going on in your life right now. Whenever I wake up in the morning and I'm like god I have to go to school I say well at least I get to see my friends, at least I dont have any tests today, at least its friday you know what I mean?
Those are just a few pointers, but I don't want to make this super long, so let me know if you need anything else. Hoep I helped, love ya,
