school is so frustrating. mind you, i'm only a high schooler, and it's driving me insane. i go to such a competitive school that i feel like everyone around me is constantly doing better than me. it's so unmotivating, which sucks so much because i actually love to learn so, so much, except i do not do so great on my tests?! i have good habits of participating in class every day and studying and getting my homework done, and i always feel like i know what's going on, but i can never show it. but i want to so badly. i am the second-oldest child and for some reason, i am the most academic one. my parents never talk to me about school or anything because they trust me and expect me to do well, so when i actually have all these issues, it makes me feel so useless because i feel like i can't even ask for help. i don't even know what i need help with. i guess i'm just so stressed because of the high standard that i feel i have to meet. i feel like it's destroying my passion for learning
