She keeps on taking off points on the homework quiz because I "forgot to indicate which line is steeper". I clearly circled the slope of the steeper one, 1/2. The other one is 1/5.

my math teacher is weird, he shows to real emotion! He is a good teacher though because I understand whats going on!

You're still about a 3.0, which is very good. Your school most likely has a rep for being damn good. I know my "college prep" Catholic high school was pretty much the hardest in my town, and colleges knew this. I applied, got into all but 1 of the 7 I applied to (partially due to lack of enough extracurrics and partially because I am very financially needy), and landed a scholarship. Anyway, back to my point, most likely colleges will see you go to "Super Hard HS" and realise that you're hella prepared for college, accept you with open arms, and offer scholarships.

Or will it?

Time will tell...and if it doesn't, I'm fucking quitting the game and restarting my character.

Ahh, the metaphors of a gamer . . .

Seriously though, relax. That's one of the most important things I've learned - don't take life too seriously. You don't have to get into a big college (although I cried when USC said "NO!"), just one that will get you a degree. From there, go do what you want to do. Don't worry about what happens when you get there. For now, focus on getting there in one happy piece.

Or maybe it's just the SLO lifestyle rubbing off on me. Although I've never been busier in my *life,* I've also never had stress levels so low. Just relax, make the best of things, and see where life takes you.
