I'm kinda stressed due to a graduate school interview I have tomorrow. Any advice regarding relaxation?

Wow, congratulations. Okay so whenever I feel stressed about something along the lines of a interview I just don't think about it until it comes and when it eventually does happen I just be myself and I don't pretend to be something that I'm not. Also something I've found out is if you prepare to much for something than you'll get stressed about if everything you've set out is good or not, so if it was a house interview than the only things I'd really do was, maybe clean up a little, and set out some appropriate snacks but that is it. So what I'm trying to say is don't get all stressed trying to make everything perfect, just be yourself and wing-it and you won't get stressed.- good luck, Nocturn701

Despite having had my license for five years I'm still terrified to drive. Like anywhere. I do it (since at this point I have to for work and such), but not without lots of anxiety. Any advice?

Thanks, I think it went well. : )

Do you drive on any busy roads? If you do than look on a map and see if there is another way you could take that maybe is on quite suburban roads. Also if you have any friends that are at the same job as you, you could try driving that person at the same time as you, because think, you'd have another pair of eyes in the car so you would always have someone else looking out for you. And the absolute worst thing you can do is think about it so something that might take your mind off that is if you were listening to music that might be something. But anyways try these and get back to me and tell me how they did, and if they didn't work than I'll try to think of something else.

I drive on the least busy road, which fortunately for me is also the most direct. And music, if anything, tends to distract me further which is why I avoid playing it while driving. At any rate I can't figure out how to work the radio and the car is too old to have a CD player so there's not much opportunity for music anyway. And carpooling isn't really much an option since a.) There's no one in my area to carpool with and b.) I can't just make someone tag along with me every time I go out driving.

 

I have been told that the best way to get over a fear of driving is to just do it. So maybe this will pass over time. I do appreciate your response, though.

I heard that too, also you could try thinking about what you are gonna do that day, that always helps me get my mind off things. No offence or anything, but sometimes on Bzp there is an add for anxiety.

Got any advice on this.

 

I really like this girl but the only time I see her is whem she's going to 3rd and 8th period. I'm currently drawing this rose for her, but I don't know what to say to say to her sometimes.

okay, first, I am not good with girls, but I'd have to say go up to her when you can and say something like:"I've seen you around and I wanted to give you this". (hand picture to her and walk away) That gives her a mysterious feel about you and she might want to get to know you more because of that. Good luck!
