Hey guys!
I'm in my third year of high school and I have these really great and fun friends with me. But ever since I got close to them since my freshmen year, my devotion in my studies declined. I also got influence to procrastinate, cheat in quizzes, go home late(not that late), swear a lot or worse, turning me to something I'm not. One of the good things about them is that they support me and gave that boost of confidence whenever I'm in a crowd. They're also my childhood friends but only in high school did we got really close, and they're also my classmates and we have this "all in this together" ish.
One of the things that I hate about cheating or them or cheating with them is that when, if I'm the ONLY one who study for the test and they have no idea on earth how to answer and they kept asking me for some answers and by the end of the day, they're the one with the highest score and am like "GAAAAHHH!" but I can't just say no because they might get mad.
I sincerely want to focus on my studies and be the kid who truthfully answers her exams, doesn't have a bad record (which so far I don't have), stays out of trouble, gets into a good college, have a great job, and have a good life, but I can't since I fell into a really deep hole of distractions. And these distractions are my friend who means something to me. I want to be my oldself(clean and studious) at the same time I don't want to be far away with my friends. I'm pretty sure it's the hardest thing to do because they know me too well and sometimes if I don't want to hangout with them they get mad and by the next day, I feel really bad about myself even though it's the right thing to do whenever there's a quiz by the next day. So can anyone help me in this situation? Thanks in advance
