I'm getting way too stressed out cause of school. I have to keep getting something over 8 (out of 10), and I keep telling myself that. The Romanian educational system is EXTREMELY hard, which does not make it easier in any way...
This song really helped. All I did was put my headset on, let it play, closed my eyes and started to imagine sweet things about my significant other...
...How awesome.
School stresses me too, sometimes. Though, I'm happy I'm managing to keep it up this year better than the others before.
You have pretty high goals! That's wonderful you're the one that keeps yourself going.
I usually don't concentrate on exact marks or imagine what mark I am aiming to. Well, rarely. I just do the most I can, the mark should turn out satiable for me and I shouldn't get the feeling that I could have done better.
..Alex mentioned that she doesn't have homework at her Romanian school. I guess you're extremely lucky to be in such a strict school.
Well, the educational system seems kinda same here in Latvia too. The same 10/10 rating system and we also have plenty of annoying and strict rules coming out almost each year. For example, if you have 20 unjustified missed classes in a semester, school sends you and your parents to deal with police.
Then you must pay 25-50 Lats and plus you get a protocol for the whole life written in your personal file, which could affect your future career opportunities.
And I myself chose to learn in a gymnasium which is a lot stricter than a usual high school, so yeah... happens sometimes to catch some stress.
But for me personally school is not the main thing that stresses me. I am sometimes just helpless and lonely because all my 3 dear sisters have gone living in the United Kingdom, and I'm left here with my mom and her boyfriend which she cares the most about. That's sometimes depressing...

Oh, yeah.. Imagining sweet things about your significant other totally helps to get distracted from everyday problems.
Even when I don't want it to.
