So. So.

I failed an English test.

I did not just fail an English test. I failed a test that was a quarter of my grade for the semester.

A quarter. of my grade. FAILED.

I don't fail English tests! I just DON'T.

But I looked on the exam and I didn't know a single thing. I froze. I never freeze

Dude.

Calm down.

[angela_love]

I CAN'T!

I just do not fail tests like that. I don't! I knew the stuff going into the test and it didn't come out of my head!

[b4bohemia]

Seriously. Calm down.

Talk to the teacher. It'll be fine.

[angela_love]

I work so hard. How could this happen?

I'll talk to him, but I don't know how Dad will take this. I don't want to tell him. I'll forge his signature if I have to but I can't tell him.

[b4bohemia]

We all blank out sometimes. It happens.

You always do well in English, I'm sure the teacher will let you retake the test or something. Don't tell your dad, forging is easy.

[angela_love]

Okay. okay.

I'm trying so hard to calm down but it's difficult! my heart is just racing and i feel so horrible.

[b4bohemia]

I know. Believe me, I know. You're talking to the King of Meltdowns.

Take a few deep breaths, wash your face, drink some water.

[angela_love]

Okay.Yeah. sounds good.

I think I could drink a ton of water right now.

Okay, got water, got blankie, freaked right the hell out into my pillow.

I'm a little better. I'm shaking, though. I think that'll go away.

[b4bohemia]

Yeah, the shaking goes away after a while.

Look, I know it seems like the end of the world right now but don't freak out too much until you talk it out with the teacher. Things are never as bad as they seem.

[angela_love]

Right now, everything seems worse. I guess anyone can be stressed, right?

I need to go away for a week.

[b4bohemia]

Being stressed is part of what is is to be human.

Ha, don't we all?
