I always feel vunerable. I feel exposed all the time. Yes other times are different, but yeah, I think I always feel vunerable.

@FantasiaSweetShock if youve done your best youll smash it. If youve done like I did and coasted, youll bite your nails to bits, maybe be disappointed and have to retake a few bits, putting in the right effort second time round. Sometimes you need a kick to do your best, but your best is ALWAYS good enough for what you need. Dont beat yourself up if you did your best. Feel free tomorrow have a word with yourself if you didnt and work out how to recover from it, theres always a recovery. X

I already got my grades back and I did worse than I thought I would. I didn't fail anything but I'm worried how this might impact me in the future....

@FantasiaSweetShock your grades wont stop you getting in and doing amazing things with your life. They make you change your choices, but they wont ruin your chances. You might need to find new ways to do what you want to do, but you will still do them. Ring the colleges, find out about your options. Unless you completely failed and need to start from scratch, you can still move forwards. If you need to retake a few things, it just makes it a longer goal, not an impossible one. Dont be in too much of a hurry. Trust me, doing it right the second time round is better than doing a half-arsed job the right way around!

@blueHemlock3868 I lost my parents recently and it hurts like hell on every anniversary. Christmas, birthdays, fathers day, mothers day... they all hit the emotional chords. Im not sure if itll ever get easier, but it helps to talk about it with people who understand, and to tell the ones who experience it with me that Im struggling. X I hope you are ok and you are feelings by close to her on this anniversary x

@faithfulGlobe8625 Loss is the worst. I cant tell you itll get better/easier/less raw because youll deal with it your way. I can tell you having lost both my parents in the last 3 years before theyre 60, that it hurts horribly, but its not fatal to you. Life is here. Its fun, awful, hilarious, terrible, shocking, exciting and wonderful. Its yours. Itll kick you in the butt and lift you to heights of joy. Let it and live it. And when you need to cry, get it out there. Every up has a down, every high has a low and theres no shame in feeling how you feel. I hope your loved one is in a better place, and the best tribute you can pay is by being the best of you as much as you can x
