People have been making me edgier since I left EPGY. It all started with a family who thought it was OK to wake up at 5 since that would be sleeping in on another coast. Then it escalated to the school yahoos and now... teachers!
I think in the end your confrontations, if handled correctly, will lead to more open communication and maybe friendliness. Don't be afraid to be honest with people. As good ol' RH says: "we must become ourselves before someone else does."
I think this week has just been a grey week in general for a lot of people. I know for me it's been one Hell of a roller coaster. Thankfully the weekend always seems to catch up with us when we need it ^_^. Oh dear Lord...I'm being positive XDDD. Maybe God put annoying powder in the atmosphere cuz I've been pretty annoyed at people in general this week as well XD.
Don't be afraid to relax a bit, hon. You've worked your tail off for 3 years, so it just seems awkward to have a lighter load when the classes are even more difficult. I've been shocked at how stress-free Chemistry has been...okay, well that only makes sense when I compare it to how I thought it would be. Taking a break here and there is just one way of keep up sane in high school, as long as we get the work done in time.
Thanks for the support and well-thought-out words. I think all I really need to get me through this is reason...except this past week I've been having trouble being reasonable. Well, I'm working on that now -- hopefully I'll manage better next week.
Oh, I know she'd love it. I'm still gonna do it someday...just not today. But the idea really struck me -- an instant, "oh wow that would rock" moment that I seriously considered. I then was happy with myself for considering it, because it was such a challenge. I then decided it was maybe too much of a challenge and I'd leave it till next year.
I've managed to psychoanalyze myself somewhat, and I think I know what's bugging me -- it's one of those cases of everything building up into one giant heap of crud. But I'm taking this weekend as a time to get myself over it, so hopefully that works.

On another note, Aldemir would probably love it if you wrote a novel is Spanish... but yeah, that might be really difficult.
And as for being more confrontational... I think everyone just gets fall blues or stress or whatever at this time.
