stay happy, 13
I hate my yearbook group. There's the most cliche girl ever that thinks she's my friend, a 7th grader I don't know, and my friend's rival that I was fairly neutral to. I hate all the things we were assigned. Our yearbook spread is on language arts. I felt really sad about it for a long time but I felt like it was purposeless to be sad about it since it is impossible to change the spread (impossible means you can't trade with someone, you can't request a new one...you're stuck with it and you have to write it and you're done). Then our minor projects were even worse. I was kind of happy I was able to work on morning loop (a slideshow with music and student pictures around campus). But I was disappointed that I had to do a "poll of students" for language arts. It was okay but I still hated it. And I had to do a podcast on shoes. Then they thought I wasn't working because I didn't know what to do so they knocked me off morning loop so now I get raffle. I'm so unhappy, we're working on the shoe podcast and I hate that cliche girl "A." She honestly just wants to show off who she is, I mean literally, she wanted to make a podcast with our faces all the way. She cares about pointless things that only she will ever benefit from. I hate her so much, 7th grader thinks I do nothing and that's because "A" always makes me do pointless things. I'm so unhappy, you can't change any of this, I can't change being unhappy. I have to be sad for the rest of the year.

- stay happy, it is possible to be happy again. No one can be happy and content all the time.
- You may want to try to make the best of the situation you are in. It seems that you will be working with this group for some time and it may be in your best interest to try to focus on the positive aspects of being in yearbook.
- You may want to consider talking to the 7th grader you don't know. If you get to know the people in your group better, perhaps you can get along better and do a good job on your assigned tasks.
- You may want to consider talking to a trusted friend or relative about your feelings.
