| Posted 17 days ago Hello there, I've read your post and one thing that your forgetting is who you have on your side....Which is "JESUS". The situation may seem rough and youf eel that there is no way out, but there is. Sometimes we go through somw things that we just don't understand..but it is all for the strength spiritually and natrally (involving your studies as well). Now, your hearing from a 21 yr old college student...who struggles everyday to continue her studies~ What I'm telling you is..." Don't let things easily beset you"...KEEP ON TRYING TO DO YOUR BEST!!!..because it will definelty pay off in the future ^_^. N' trust me...I felt the same way when things were hitting me all at once..But it was the LORD that brought me through. Keep On' doing what your doing. STRIVE FOR EXCELLENCE..*** Oh yes...and don't forget to put God first in all that you Do and He shall Direct thy PATH~ |

| Posted 17 days ago I'm a christian, but I'm not going to go much into that stuff... However, I was in a very similar situation. My father made some decisions that forced me and my mom to move. I was the top student in my class at my home school. This was up through the middle of sophomore year before I had to move. I then moved to a very challenging school, they ignored all the honors credits I had accumulated, and determined my gpa up to that point, that way. I was furious and I didn't have the comfort of the friends that I had spent 15 years counting on. I felt alone, my mom talked to me often about how meaningless life was for the both of us. Junior year, I made more friends, but I still missed my home school, because it was so easy and just because I missed my old friends. I ended up getting 5 b's for the year, 3 of which were 92's. I screwed up my SAT pretty badly, got 590s across the board. I felt hopeless over the summer. Class rank came a few days ago for us seniors, and I knew it would be close... I made the top 10 percent cut though. The point is: times are tough, but just hold yourself to a higher standard and things will be ok. I got a 27 on my ACT (took it again two weeks ago, score might go up) so that took the place of my SAT score. After all your trouble, you'll realize that you have a more rounded life experience than others I thought many times about how easy it would be if everything would just end, but I pulled through. Even though I won't be valedictorian, I believe my new situation has made/ is making me into a better person. I have many more opportunities and I've been able to learn much more in my new school. Life is what you make it; run with it! |

| Posted 17 days ago Agreeing with MiriamBean1 -- Jesus is your strength and the source of your identity. Your GPA doesn't define you. How ahead you are with the credits don't define you. How well school goes for you or how well you do in school doesn't define you. It is the Love and Grace of God that makes you who you are and who you are created to be. It is hard, I know the feeling of wanting to give up. It's so tempting, but God calls us to trust in Him that He will work all things out for the good of those who love Him and are faithful to Him. And the cool thing is He will. You must keep your faith that He will and He honors that. Pray to Him everyday, surrender your fears and doubts. Give it all. Just release your burdens -- He does not want you to carry them alone. As long as you try to do the best with the portion you are given, in the place GOd puts you in -- even if that place or portion seems discouraging or belitting -- then you have done all you can. Do not compare yourself to others, for they have been given their own portion that is different from yours. Yes, it will still be hard. And yes we are human and we can still mess up even in our best. But God is waiting for you everyday to run back to Him so He can just melt you with His mercy and love. He is always with us, He promises peace. He is soveriegn in all situations, even when it seems hopeless. A few verses to perhaps encourage you: A few verses to encourage you: John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. Isaiah 30:21 "Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice saying, 'This is the way; walk in it.'" Psalm 59: 16-17 “But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. O my Strength, I sing praise to you; you, O God, are my fortress, my loving God.”
Also: Matthew 6: 25-34 :) God is there and truly orchestrating your life. He loves you so freaking much! Do not despair, dear Heart. Smile today because you are alive and beautiful. Ps I'm here always if you need to talk. <3

| Posted 11 days ago IDK, I try to think that everything happens for a reason, no matter what, and there's always someone out there that's there for you and loves you, even when you don't think so. Try to look up, make yourself happy when you can, and always try your hardest! |

| Posted 8 days ago Dont let yur situations get the best of yu , do wat yu need to do in order to be successful . We hav lots of students at my school like tht . it is possible to keep striving for the best no mattrer wat it looks lik rite now, but if yu dont yu wil end up not very successful but an ordinary person. people at my school who jus give up end up not graduating & going nowhere. do yu want to be lik those people? think about your future, yur kids if yu plan to or hav any... what stories wil yu want to share with them? how yu gave up or how yu never gave up.. hope this helps, Kaprice |
