Why 17 year old should never be allowed to make life changing decisions.

Lately, it has come to my attention that neither I, nor any of my friends ever seem to be fully rested. Ok, were teenagers, we "do" late nights. But the thing is, we don't do them every night.
I honestly cannot remember I time when I wasn't absolutely knackered. Take now, for example, I could let myself happily fall asleep. Right here, right now. But it's silly to waste an evening.
I was talking to my friend Bronwyn the other day about this lagging problem, and she came to the conclusion that it was down to stress/too much to think about. Because even with a full nights sleep, we all seem to resemble the zomie race, rather than the human one.
This is what I have to think about right now:
First and formost: My A Levels. Bad results would mean I have to drop out of college, and not ever have the opportunity to go to uni. In order to pass there A levels to a high standard, work and revision need to be completed pronto, and accurately.
Then there is the huge, gaping question of university. What subject do I plan on studying, when people ask me this at the moment I reply with "Oh, you know, acting... maybe. If I get in. Maybe something in the media? Journalism? I dunno.. Christ, what am I going to do with my life?! HELP ME!" - Lets face it, I have no idea.
Then there is the pressure of maintaining important school work, which maintaining actual work. We NEED money! Unfortunately everything in the world is run using money, therefore it's a rather vital part of everyday life. I have tow jobs: I work four hours at Topshop on Saturday, then five hours after college on a Tuesday at Mcdonalds. This is acceptable. However, I used to do a lot more than this, but I swear I was nearly at mental breakdown stage.
FURTHERMORE, 16 & 17 are the most fucking annoying years. Because of all these important decisions and work etc. You feel like an adult, you even start to think like an adult, and yet legally, we cannot be adults. This leads to massive rows with our parents, because annoyingly enough they are legally correct when they say no, we cannot go out to that club, with those men. Then in turns leads to trouble such as fake IDs, other peoples IDs.. The whole fiasco.
We also tend to start thinking about driving. Because we are all absolutely desperate to start driving. This is huge expense & requires more hours working. This also requires more hours of revision because you need to understand driving theory in order to pass your tests. Which generally requires more hours in the day. Oh, and it also requires willing parents to sit in the car with you, without gripping their seat (thanks mum, huge confidence boost there (Y) )
& amonst all this is our stupid "worries" and "concerns"... were not going out enough, were going out too much, were doing too much work and have no social life, were doing no work and are about to be chucked out of college, were fat and ugly, but were hot enough to act like slags because we can get away with it because were "teenagers." However amonst that we are politically aware enough to have oppinions and get wound up & hate our government and country, and everybody in it.
In conclusion, being a teenage is tough. So Jeeesus parents, teachers, advisors, whatever, LAY OFF US! Stop pretending your life is more stressful than ours, just because you have to pay the bills.
