can anyone tell me what is wrong with me (don't criticize me)?

Question

Well, I am in high school and they gave us these fancy new laptops to do all of our homework on. I always try my best at school and I really don't like to slack off, but recently I have really been slacking and I'm not sure why. Every time i log onto my computer to do something, I get distracted by facebook and youtube, and i end up staying up late and forgetting to do my homework. Then the next day I end up really tired and can't concentrate in class. I am getting really bad grades and I keep forgetting everything. I have never loved school, in fact I have always kind of hated it, but I had always gotten all of my schoolwork done on time in middle school, and now my parents expect me not to get any F's on my report card, and I have two C's and a D already! Plus I can never motivate myself to do anything and I have been getting mad a lot. In fact, i am procrastinating right now by asking this instead of reading (which is something I just remembered to do now) Can someone who knows what they are talking about tell me what's wrong with me? Please do not criticize me.

it sounds like your new laptop in which you use is distracting, try and stay focused and get your homework in on time and then when you get home you can go on those sites in your own time and try get a good night sleep to remain concentrated for the next day :) hope this helps.

What you have is a lack of motivation, probably because you do not see a need in the near future.  Had that in 9th grade, got over it in 10th grade.  
Here is your motivation!  In 3 years you will or will not graduate from high school and if you have good parents they will wish you good luck and either see you off to college or off to on your own.  Now if you think it is tough to motivate yourself or get an education, just think of what it will be like without a good education.  Maybe you can get one of those jobs flipping burgers or stocking shelves at $8-10 so that you can have all of the best things in life(facetious).  You best start to think about what you need to do to get the things you want and not depend on the facebook or utube diploma, one of them and 50 cents may get you a cup of coffee nowadays.  
My motivation was to get away from my parents and it was a very strong motivator.  How are your parents to live with?
Son, you need to get it on and decide what you want to do with your life.  Hey, I know, they need lots of recruits for the army to go to Afghanistan.  You sound like a prime candidate.

Nothing is wrong with you at all. Facebook and Youtube are almost impossible to avoid. Do all your school related stuff before you go on Facebook and Youtube. Distractions will be in your life forever.

no longer inevitably those words yet while your buddy has a habit of criticising people then might i advise asking your buddy to be much less vocal approximately it. your buddy is his/her very own guy or woman so telling by him/her to end he/she wont be so and as a result your contradicting your self once you're saying you elect anybody to be their very own guy or woman
