    Oh wow...that's terrible! Don't worry though! I know a solution!

    Solution 1, Your ability to do tasks depends on how much sleep you get. Make some makeshift earplugs so you don't have to listen to your brother snoring.

    Solution 2, When doing your tasks, work for 30 mins, them take a break, if you find yourself feeling drowsy, get up, go for a jog in your yard or do push ups or sit ups in your room, exercise stimulates and wakes up the brain.

    Solution 3: Do not work on an empty stomach, make sure you have a small snack or drink before you start to work.

    Solution 4: I know when you look at all your tasks you have to do, it seems like a lot, I've been there before, do not look at all of them at once, focus on one task and don't stop until you have done a decent amount of work on it or you have finished your task. Then you can move on to the next thing on your list.

    Solution 5: If you find yourself panicking: Take deep breaths, close your eyes and rest for ONE minute. Another way of beating stress is to listen to music (Pony music works the best for me)

    Solution 6: Avoid Procrastination at ALL costs Remove any distractions you have before beginning on your tasks.

    Solution 7: Get the chores your parents give you done as soon as possible, you don't want to get on their bad side.

    Most importantly, REWARD yourself after all your hard work. Another thing that helps is taking vtamin tablets or pills with Vitamin B in them, that helps you keep calm and deal with stress.

    Don't worry Legion! I am behind you all the way an I KNOW you can do it!
    I am finished studying, so Ask away I am ready to help!

    ...They want you to worry about it? ...
    I'd have thought confidence was a good thing. I guess they're just worried you don't care at all...

    They're probably annoyed because its meant to be a tough time for me, yet they're the ones who're getting stressed. Besides, 2-3 hours a day is much better than 6 hours at school. Study leave is so great.

    Thanks Simon. :smile:

    @ 1: Yes, I really should do that. xD Silly me, it was that easy to fix.
    @ 2: Bleh excersise. But I'll try it, you're probably right about it helping.
    @ 3: I shall do that. I am too used to going without food, I really should eat lunch more often...
    @ 4: Yeah, that does help. Most of the time I can do that, but sometimes I just get overwhelmed...
    @ 5: Yes, music. Music helps me relax immensely. Unfortunately it does not help me concentrate on my work very much...but then again, neither does stress.
    @ 6: Lol that will be hard. I am master of procrastination, and the more work the more I will put it off...
    @ 7: Yeh, that's probably a good idea.

    And I will try to take daily vitamins, I usually neglect that along with lunch...

    Thank you SO much! All of this is sure to help, or at least increase my confidence that I can do all this junk... :/
    I hope I can be as supportive if you have problems...

    I always liked Super Mario World more, personally. I have insane amounts of nostalgia with it.

    Heh, I remember Super Mario World! XD That was an awesome game! Dunno whether I prefer 3 or World though...
    I also remember a mario game I used to really love on Gameboy, Mario Land 2- That's one of my favourites too.

    And hey, Joshua!

    Anyone else wish they could play a cardgame with ponies:smile:?

    I don't know about you, but sometimes I wish I did know the mane 6 personally. Just think having Pinkie Pie at your party:grin:.
