-you spelt it right; Experiencing
My problems?
1. My car is costing me a small fortune to repair, as well as wasting a lot of my time (thoug poly wastes the rest )
2. My brother-in-law is getting married in 4 weeks and that will be the 6th, and last, wedding I will have gone to this year. I can't find someone to sit the dog for that time, my wife wants me to take 3 days off for work, I can't afford to fly to Malibu for it, it's a 6 hour drive, and it will cost an arm and a leg just to stay there. Not to mention the 6 other weddings I have had to throw money at this year.
3. My in-laws let my wives cousin attempt suicide, and they don't wish to acknowledge that, and this has made my wife very angry at them.
4. My parents have decided to ditch us (my wife and I) for Thanksgiving and Christmas this year (again, 3rd year in a row) in order to visit my lil' sis and her new husband at the house my parents just bought them for Thanksgiving, and my older sister and her husband at the house my parents bought them for Christmas. We are "invited", but we can't afford the flight due to complaint #2 and #1. And, personally I really resent the fact that they will fly to Denver to visit my sister and her new husband less than 6 months after they get married though they have not once visited my wife and I in the 2 years we have been married.
5. Work is getting really busy, and due to clerical errors (not mine) I am getting behind and can't do anything about it. Yet, I know it will all catch up and I will be swamped, about the same time as #2 occurs.
6. My wives company filed for banckruptcy last week. She probably has 1 month left to work. Which is really nice considering we are so rich!
7. My lawn died.
8. They raised the cost of my morning beverage by 2 cents at the 7-11!
9. They stopped carrying Becks at my liquor store which is very convenient.
10. I am probably going to lose the lottery yet again.

Besides that life is pretty good.

Ouch. Jaspher, I might have trouble keeping up with that.
Hmm... a neutral judge might be needed 
So here's what's on my mind.
1. Recently wrote a test in history which I fear won't be as good as it should be (anyway, who am I to judge that hitler's rise to power was legal in every sense of the word?)
2. Gonna write a test in social studies this Friday which may get even worse
3. We're doing a play in school which is quite difficult ("Lysistrate" by Aristophanes if it helps anyone), I have a big role, and nothing's working. And it's due in ten days. Even the local papers will report about it (d'oh!)
4. My computer freaks out every once in a while, just stopping to work for no apparent reason.
5. The 'one certain girl who doesn't know' (you know what I mean) will move away to the Baltic sea after end of the school year (which is end of July), and I will never see her again. This is actually eating me most, and the only question I keep asking myself when I'm lying there listening to my favourite music is "why".
6. I'm worried to fail my final exams next year, and I'm really worried about it, because I couldn't bear another year in school.
7. I'm worried that there might be a slight chance that I can fail this year in school, and have to do this class again.
8. I'm *this* close to proclaiming myself Lizard King (at least that's what the unknown guy in my head keeps telling me).
9. My room is filling with empty Iced tea bottles, and I don't know where to put them (too much for the trash can too).
10. I managed to gain 5 kilos in half a week (well, and lose two of 'em again).
11. I'm trying to write a story, which might become a novel, but I'm stuck on page 1.
12. My favourite record might have developed a scratch.
13. I wanna leave this country. Immediately.
14. I might run out of things for this list.
15. +the usual stuff (bad sleep, nightmares, strange things growing somewhere on my body, consistant boredom, loneliness... you name it).

Hm.. Q Cubed, that really sounds evil. I feel quite stupid now.
quote: 1. Classes can be retaken, I took several over myself. |
Yeah, that's not the primary problem. The problem is that I hate school and want to get over with it as quickly as possible.
quote: 2. Computers can be repaired. |
Well, not by me I have no technical knowledge, and those who claim they can have usually made things only worse (despite the fact they can't understand my problems).
quote: 3. Girls come and go, but I would tell her how I feel, I gots one of them in the back of my mind and I really wish I
had done something about it when I had a chance. |
I have wondered if this is the right thing to do. I mean, as far as I understood things, she wants to loosen herself of everything here.
She seems to like me. But maybe I would hurt her if I told her about these feelings like this. I feel I lost the game.
quote: -if you want to leave than leave... |
Can't. No money. No chances. Gotta finish school, then serve "my" country (which will be to refuse military service and do civil service at a kindergarten or Greenpeace)... that'll take two more years... and by then...
I think what really cracks me up is the fact that I got over all those depressing things in life and told myself to take it easy. And at last, when I succeeded, I'm getting one blow after another. Sure, it's not that serious type of blow, but it's still bad.

What role are you playing (there aren't too many men involved are there )? I read it (in English)... quite a few years ago, though.

Give her a call, NOW! ... And if you actually manage to do that (and with a positive outcome too), tell me how you did it... please!

It was completely and utterly sick of school the last 2 to 3 years, but I managed just fine. But then, it all just depends on what kind of a student you are.
How well are you doing, generally speaking, in school?
quote: 7. I'm worried that there might be a slight chance that I can fail this year in school, and have to do this class again. |
Not too good then? Just remember that failing will mean an extra year in school (seriously)! You may hate school, but giving up will only make it worse. So work hard, but make sure you have plenty to do to get your mind off things too. Go somewhere during the holidays.
quote: 13. I wanna leave this country. Immediately. |
You say next year will be your last... You could try planning a year off after highschool. Say, a year backpacking in Australia, a year highschool in the US, volunteer work in Latin America or Africa, that sort of thing. There are plenty of possibilities.
That'll also help motivate you through school, since you will have something to look forward to.

Life is pretty good but
1. work is slow for me ( LAST month I made next to nothing) and I am a contractor so if I don't work I don't get paid-- Showing up nets ZERO if you don't have a project to work on--
2. My wife is on maternity leave and her income is less than half of normal. Combined with #1 this is worrisome but we do have a cushion builtin
3. Last night I had a nightmare that I discovered my son drowing in the bathtub and awoke during the CPR attempts ( the fact that we don't bathe him in the tub is irrelevant to my subconscious)

stefan, by what i've read you really have no problems, they're all in your head... you don't have real problems until:
1. Your psychiatrist is on speed dial
2. Your alternate personality is on speed dial
3. The IRS is on speed dial
4. You can't make bail
5. You're Saddam
6. You've had more surgeries than you can count on your fingers
7. Your girlfriend isn't a girl
