I Want To Write My Random Thoughts And Feelings

i do not think i am cut out for this. i think i am not smart enough to stay in this school but i will be waiting until finals to see if my grades are in line with my thinking.

i don't mind not passing but i am afraid of disappointing my parents, ya know? like they spent so much: they rented a place just so i could be close to school, the tuition fee and the books are so expensive. i study and do what i can but it doesn't feel like it's enough, plus i am so very exhausted. i am not happy and i want to die

You are smart enough, even if you’re not catching on quickly.
I think ]@Kindheartedguy] had a good suggestion....get someone to help you out until it becomes more natural for you to think that way....don’t just fight yourself and give up.
Don’t worry about disappointing your parents as much as letting yourself down. If you do your best, and still can’t succeed, so be it....but don’t leave without giving it your best.
@DragonFruit 😭
Okay dragoat
The worrying gets to me so much especially when i have no time to relax or do what i want. I think youre right that i havent adjusted yet. I havent stopped being overwhelmed with the study load they gave us and its only like what, a fuckin month!!!! 😶

My friend said that the stress we're experiencing will eventually make us numb to it. Lol
@DragonFruit thank you for listening to my rant lol i never have time to let it all out cuz i just end up crying lol

@Dewms No need to thank me....that’s what friends are for. You have listened to me when I was down, and it’s only right that I return the favor for a good friend. ❤️ 🤗
I appreciate all the comments here. I will reply to each when I have the time. My conscience keeps telling me that being on SW is not productive lol

Finals will tell if this is meant for me 🤞🏼

Dewms. Find tutors. Get some friends to help you out with this.

I’ve had friends bounce back from some really bad grades starting out.

No quitting.
@SW-User i got friends who are, like me, waiting til finals if the grades we'll receive are passing grades 😩
Same friends also said that this feeling might be because we're still adjusting. Idk. All i know is that i am exhausted and i want to die every day

You are a very intelligent lady. And very thoughtful to think of your parents sacrifices. But their dream is to see you succeed. My first term at college was a disaster. I was an older student and flunked two classes. But I resisted feeling sorry for myself, sought lots of tutoring, and later succeeded with my engineering degree.

College is by design supposed to be hard. Only the best succeed. I feel you have what it takes to succeed. Take a deep breath, buckle down, and hit it as hard as you can. You can do it!!! 🤗

🤗 dewms pls take my oppa energy
@SW-User please pray that i die soon
SW-User
@Dewms i will never do that but if u do i promise not to waste the body
@SW-User my dying wish is for my corpse to become a tree and play my funeral playlist on my funeral
Omg why is this me ?
@Stark its so tiring 🤧
A course change can work wonders. They might be disappointed in the moment that it didn't work out as planned, but they'll still love you the same. I know how you feel though

Just my experience, not saying throw in the towel just yet
@BeefySenpie no course change possible 🤔
Youre right but it doesnt stop the feeling of shame and knowing that youre a disappointment

Gonna wait til December to knowwww

Dom :( you are plenty smart enough. Maybe you're just stretching yourself too thin being here and other stuff in addition to school? Can you cut back anything to devote more to it?
@SW-User hah. I am not, and it is fine with me. This is burn out, i just didnt realise it.

Cut back anything? I already spend so much time reading that whenever im not reading, i feel so guilty so i start reading again
SW-User
@Dewms you can do this, burnout sucks but don't let it win.

Oh wow, know that feeling. :(
SW-User
Tell them or someone besides us here about feeling too much pressure.
