Um...Hello... - Comments

I'd say change what you can. Look at yourself from a 3rd person perspective, think to yourself "Would I be friends with me?". I don't believe in the whole "Be yourself don't change blah blah" fully. Be yourself, but be the best you you can be. Don't look at finding out your flaws as a bad thing but a good thing. Now you know how to fix yourself.

In terms of your assignments and stuff, if you're struggling, ask your teachers for help. But above all, do the fucking work.

Sorry for double posting that comment. And also my name is also Katie. Hi.

Oh honey, don't get too down on yourself, okay? Seriously, I'm the same way. Once I start talking, I don't shut up, and when I get really into what I'm talking about, I get loud. I get told so often that I talk too much or that I'm too loud and obnoxious. But you know what, it's part of who I am. And yeah, it annoys some people, and of course I have to kind of watch myself on that when I'm, say, at work or in class or somewhere that it could affect other people. But on the whole, I have some close friends that my loud and obnoxious personality meshes with anyway, and they're the ones whose opinions matter, not the people around me that don't know me.

If you feel like your "friends" aren't really your friends...Well, you may be wrong, but even if you're right, it might hurt--trust me, I have been there, lost pretty much all my high school friends at the same time when I realized they all thought I was annoying and didn't really want me around--but you know, those people, the ones who don't give you the respect you deserve, and the ones who think you need to tone down your personality and the part of you that comes out when you're happy, those people will not matter to you one bit in five years.

*hugs* As far as the other things go, one, don't feel like you have to make a commitment you're not ready for--if this guy loved you like he said he wanted you to love him, he should have understood that you weren't ready for that kind of commitment; and you can still get through your homework and tests. (Trust me, I've got unfinished homework and a couple essays to write myself!) You'll be okay. Just breathe. Give yourself a chance to separate where your obligations and responsibilities really lie--here's a hint, it's never to the people who don't love you for who you are--and then just take the things you need to get done one thing at a time.

Hit me up if you ever need to chat about stuff like this. <3 Good luck with everything.
