God I'm going to die.

[Conal]

To say im normally calm about situations, and im an agony uncle, i can't handle this on my own.

Parents evening is coming up tommorow and i had a one-to-one today with my tutor and im doing so bad... D's for my subjects and i also owe essays that, if i don't hand in tommorow, im doomed.

Parents evenings are always terrible for me. I have nothing but bad ones and this is gonna bad too. I constantly have a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach and i hate this feeling. I don't want to get told off tommorow because i want be able to bear it this time and its CHristmas soon. I have too much on my mind. I am basically close to having a panic attack im so nervous about it.

So what can i do really... please help and quick.

Conal, is the D's you are on about your target grades or your progress grades if you don't mind me asking...
Does your mum/dad go mad if your reports aren't too good?

1. Even agony uncles and "higher ups" have the same problems as everyone else so don't worry bout that, were all human.

2. Don't worry bout ya grades 2 much either, make sure ya try the best ya can of course but I remember me being the same, parents evenins were ok as they usually had good things to say bout my character, but about my work then they were bad lol, had loadsa rows with em.

And at school, I was predicted as bein below the borderline and for gettin Ds and stuff, hell I had to go to "mentorin" which was basically em settin targets an tellin ya to do ya work, also I remember gettin the deputy head takin me outa classes for a talk about my grade predictions and the lot lol.

BUT as it turned out, I left school with 5 Bs, 6Cs, 1 D and 1 E. (The D was maths, and I redid that at college and got it up to a C)

Basically I was a lazy bastard (still am). I was mostly in top sets but they couldn't predict what I was going to get exactly, they just went on production and not competency, I couldn't be arsed to do the work in class but when it came to the exams, I just said ill do my best and see what I get, and it turned out ok.

So yeah it happens dude, its possible you might turn out with around Ds, but remember that just cause they say you will, it doesent mean you definately will.

Just do what I did and gut through the parents evenings and tellins off, teachers gettin on ya back and all the rest, but keep listenin and learnin, and then wait till ya exams come and just give it ya best as it might just turn out good, then u might even get loadsa money of ya parents and ppl for provin em wrong :D

right seen as you have a lot of essays to hand in....and not much time, try and so one or 2 of the small ones now....or do the ones for the worst teachers.
if you havnt done one for one teacher, and not many people have...just say to your parents you werent given enough time and your werent the only one!
im the best kyer ever to teachers.... *thinks of one to tell psychology teachers....oh shit need to do biology*
