Advice on school trouble? panicking really? typical teenage drama?

Ok so they warn you that you need to be on top of the homework FIRSTT. But double art, seriously, it's no longer a passion for gods SAKEEE. They can't just force it out of you like a chore can they. Plus atm all i have is crayons because my thing hasn't come yet and i HATE CRAYONS. i'm lying on the floor, COLLAPSED from colouring. I know it's kind of late to do homework, but what i thought woulda took an hour, took 4 HOURS. Crayons break, sharpner doesn't work anymore, Crayons need sharpenin again, page looks scruffy.


I did the beautiful sketches in class but now it's too rushed. It is A LOT of homework. They send u into the holidays without a single piece of homework and then PILE IT ON when u already have it. I can take the maths homeork which im not usually good at, its becoming really easy,so is the english, the spanish, everything but the friggin art. Plus i never go out anymore i don't know how to knuckle down this much. I have to come home, walk the dog, tidy my room, spend time with my little brother do homework aswell. at first it didn't sound too long for homework, but the art takes longer than it usually would in school.. and im not so much distracted..


I don't have a desk which i am begging for so i have to do it on my bed which is REALLY hard for me. and by 10 o clock im so tired, its not i don't know how to WORK out the maths i'm just so tired i can't be bothered, i'll look at it and go completely blank at whatever digits there are, clueless. Plus i dont like the critisizm really, i know its the teachers job, but where i KNOW where my work has gone down or i didn't do so well on, I KNOW lol. it doesn't help when she tells it to the class. Maybe its because she didn't give me enough time to do it. Sorry if im moaning but its really stressful. Im ust worried im going to do RUBBISH. and i've been ill lately with sinusitis and allergies, it's just so hard to concentrate it takes me ageesss. It is especially worse in the art classroom. So headaches that are like throbbing in my nose and eyes is not good , i was healthy, I NEVER HAD HEADACHES BEFORE, i had to look them UP.


What do i do and how do i get on top of this work.

As a teacher I entirely agree, you have too much work, and your own enthusiasm is being changed. If it is any consolation this happens to teachers too but what can we both do about it?


Lets go through the basics-primary school was 'always do your best work'. If you are being put under pressure to do sufficient is probably more important than always to produce 'your ultimate effort.'


This is not unusual in the sense that you have to pass exams which in many cases will not contain the kind of answer where your real skills can become 'works of art'. Therefore you can use the pressure to begin to 'fit your responses to the lessons and the teachers' more than doing your best at all times. A PASS is going to be more important to you and fitting your effort into a busy schedule is very common these days. Wait for that one project where you feel you can give it time and then show them your inspirational work-meanwhile develop a working relationship with the tasks you have to complete as efficiently as possible. Getting the work done has to be economical-so keeping a list and thinking what would be appropriate before you have to sit with your crayons can be very useful. Once on top of your assignments you can spend more time as you become used to handing work in on time and listening to criticisms. Good luck. Hope this helps.

I never used to do mine.... but thats not the answer really, you have to cut it up into small bits, what you are doing is seeing the whole problem and it looks huge, plus you are going to have to develop some self discipline, which is hard if you are young, everything else seems so much more interesting! so make yourself a time table, setting aside times for your homework, and stick to it, after its done you will feel so much better and then you can chat on MSN without feeling guilty and stressed!






How much time do you spend on YA?
r u aloud to print something off the internet or word.......... ask a friend to do it or relative... u know what i would do; go 2 the dollar store and buy stuff good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!
First you need to limit your time on YA and MSN, no matter how much fun you're having. You should never procrastinate--you'll only get stress and more headaches. Trust me. I know it's hard to break away from this habit but you'll feel much better when you know you did your homework and you're free all night to do anything you want. Break it up into small little steps. Like, do your math homework for 15 minutes then take a 5 minute break then do your reading homework for 20 minutes. It all takes self-discipline.
