What stressed me out the most last year were students who did not do what they were capable of doing in class...the lazy ones, those who did not speak ENGLISH inside and outside the classroom, those who did not do the assigned work, and those who think that my class was just a walk in the park...!
I hated this, and since they stressed me out a lot, I made sure that those students received twice as much stress as they were giving me.
I wonder...do any of you INCOMING GRADE 8 STUDENTS want to try that out again this year?! Trust me...you'll be sorry! CIAO!!!

There are many things that stressed me out during grade 7 last year, but most of them happened in Chinese class. For example, our teacher liked to give us extra time before a test to study. However, when she left, the class began to chat. I really wanted to concentrate, but I can’t, so I asked (repeat: I asked) them to be quiet. They listened, but only for a while so I would yell at them, but of course, they won’t listen and sometimes, they even yelled back for me to be quiet. At that point, I really reached my boiling point, so I really wanted to slam the door real hard and kick some asses, but hey, I’m not the teacher so I didn’t do it. Another thing that stressed me out was my height. I knew that I’m short and I tried many things, like acupuncture, milk, jumping, swimming etc. Still, new teachers or students would think that my younger brother is my older brother. Sometimes, I did get annoyed but it’s not their fault because the truth is right there: I’m short. The last thing that really stressed me was my friends. Their homework was, like, the top, so their grades were almost always better than mine and, obviously, I’m stressed out to keep up with them.

What were some of the things you feel stressed you out the most in Grade 7 last year? Give two to three and justify your response by explaining your point well. It may revolve around your school life, family life, friendship, personal ideas, etc. PLEASE do not mention any names if others are involved...!
I had some pretty stressful things in grade 7. First, of course ,are the tests. they don't give the test often,so they will have to put all the lessons together on one test, which made it harder, because we would have to review more. AND, i don't know if it is planned or it is just that....all the tests are always at the same week!! After chinese is social studies, after social studies is language....!
The second thing that is pretty stressful is my grades. For the first two quarters, i got bad scores in computer, i got Ds. My bad grade is because of my slow typing skills! My GPA those two quarters is 3.33!!!!!
The third stressful thing that i had in grade 7 is my grandfather died, by a cancer. He had been sick and had been in the hospital for two and a half years.

What stressed me out the most in Gr.7? I think there were 2 main things that caused me a great stress. Grades (especially Chinese) was like a Tsunami and brought great stress to me. Because my grades weren’t so good, my parents would pressure me to get at least 3.00 which was a I often thought of my self learning with 6 graders and learning the same thing twice. Also I thought about what will happen to me. Another thing that I don’t want to think again would be huge assignments such as big tests, Science fair, and etc… Sometimes big tests were in same week or day and to prepare for it, it was a great burden to me. Not only tests but sometimes homework was too many and too hard that I got frustrated. And because I got frustrated with my self, I got angry and got bad mood which others thought uncomfortable. Then relationship with others and my self would drop which I got very stressful. Anyways these are the things that I got stress the most, and I hope that I can cope with those troubles this year in right way.
In grade 7 last year big tests and GPAs were things which i think stressed me out the most. Most of the students in grade 7 are all stressed out about all the big tests. Most of the time the teachers give the big tests on the same week or close, and they also give homeworks during the week. Studying of big tests is one of my stressed for the whole year because first i always leave it to the last minute to study. Second, I'm lazy to study for the big tests, so study for one subject can take up hours. Third if i get a low grade my parents will surely get mad at me, and my chinese grade won't be high because big tests stands 20% the finally grade. Another stressful thing last year is my GPA. For the first quarter i always thought that i would get a low grade after seeing my grades on every subject on edline. The grades on edline make me nervous because the average of all the grade is just about 85. After my brother told me that an average of 85 is about a 3.1. Then i realize that i haven't had a bad grade infact a grade that i think is good.
