Probably try to give yourself as many distractions as possible. Exercise, do any hobbys (video games, reading, sports), anything possible that you have fun with or enjoy.

Maintain your excellent work ethic with your projects, its really good that you work so hard. Just make sure you balance it out, if you're close with your parents at all, or have any friends maybe talk to them, in desperate times the people you're closest to can be your greatest support.

Well until your new antidepressants kick in, just remember that some of what you're feeling is just your body chemistry re-adjusting itself. As for your dog, well, no advice can stave off death. But it sounds like its old age. Just remember that she had a happy life and that's the most any creature on this earth can attain. Be strong my good man.

allow yourself time for a good cry if you're inclined or a nice soak or a favorite movie. keep eating right and getting 8 hrs. per night. don't rule out thinking about a puppy when your faithful friend passes. so many strays need good owners like you.

Are you in college? If so, visit the psychological services department and tell a psychological counselor, psychologist, or psychiatrist what you are going through and that you need to take some time off from school. Get a note to approach your academic counselor with attesting to this, and ask how you can take time off and receive incompletes in your courses due to extenuating circumstances.

English teachers are frequently of an undesirable character. This is often because they majored in English and can't really do much with it so they are stuck teaching.

I'm sorry about your dog. It's unfortunate that their life spans can't be longer. Dogs are very sensitive to human emotions and non-verbal body language so when you spend time with your dog, so try not to create any negative situations when you are around him or her. When my dog was down to her last few days I tried to act in the same manner that I always do. When it became clear that she could no longer enjoy life and was suffering, we put her down. I don't regret that because she was gasping for breath by that time, and I don't regret not having done it sooner because she was still able to enjoy life the previous day. My only regret is that we were unable to arrange for a vet to put her down at the house, as she was terrified of going to the office.
