College... College... College...

Is anybody else worried about college as much as i am? I know that i may be stressing a little bit too hard, but college has been on my mind day and night. 
It is junior year now and it is time to be visiting colleges and thinking about what you want to do when you grow up. This is all so much for me to think about. Teachers are giving us a lot of homework keeping us up to midnight every night and stressing us out about grades. 
College has been on my mind and it has taken over my thoughts. Every time i do a homework assignment in a class, i am scared to turn it in because i am scared that i will get a bad grade on it, and then do bad on the test, and then not get into a good college. This stresses me out and it is always so hard for me to be confident in the work that i do. 
I know that i may be stressing about this a little bit too much, but it just wont leave my mind. We are doing this perilous times essay in English, and i am very scared that i will get a bad grade on it and not be able to write essays in college and this just adds more stress to me. I know that teachers are trying to get us ready for college, but i feel like teachers are making things so stressful for students by giving a lot of homework and grading pretty hard too. 
Does anyone else feel stressed about college? Or do you think that teachers are just trying to get us ready?
