Nevermore

Posted by Jabberwock on Feb. 16, 2007, 6:07 p.m.

I've officially lost any faith I once had in the school system. If today weren't Friday, I might just have had to kill somebody. It was the worst day (in terms of school) I think I've ever had, and it wasn't even my fault.

I've mentioned my insane, evil history teacher before, right? Well, today, she really crossed a line. Several days before I left on vacation, I went to get all the work for those days from her. She gave it to me, and it was a pretty crushing load, but I managed to do it all in a total of, oh, twenty hours or so over the next few days. The day I got back, I turned it in, and then today, I got it back. She didn't count ANY of it because "my absence wasn't excused". I wasted twenty hours I could've spent doing something (anything) else on stupid history homework, and she gave me a zero on all of it. Which makes me wonder what the hell she gave it to me for in the first place - she knew that going on vacation isn't an excused absence, yet she gave me the work to make up anyway. Besides, school rules dictate if you come to the teacher before you go, then it's okay. So I'm pretty mad about that, as you can probably see. I'm thinking of just dropping that moronic class, though by next week I probably will have cooled down a little. Fortunately I don't have to go back to that retarded place for three days.

Bye. Hope your Friday was better.

you know, i'm not sure if my teachers hate me or not, I mean NEVER do any work, I Only take notes in chem, and that's because i sit front and center, i mean so front and center that he can probably read my notes, (Side track, speaking of which he made and ass outta himself today, he's like "ok, i'm sending you outta here cuz your not doing anything(I was taking notes the WHOLE time) i'm like What? i was taking notes, and he asks to see them, and he's like "oh, you were taking fast notes, it look like you were just sitting there.) Anywho, where was i? oh yeah, I never do my math, and i almost always talk in there, and in history, history is great XD, i never take notes or do homework, but i makes stupid comments all the time, but then i do just fine on the tests and sometimes get all into talking about certain topics (E.G. WWII, Cold war and such). Er… you know. i'll stop there, before this gets any longer.

P.S. Only three days? HA! WE GET A WHOLE 9!

I would be seriously annoyed if that happened to me. When explaining to your parents, drop in a few lies. Subtle ones that are believable.

It's not like getting zeroes on all that crap will make me fail the class. It's more that I wasted all of that work that really makes me tick.

Yep, that hurts most. You put a lot of work into something because you feel obliged to do it, and then it turns out it's all worthless in the eyes of the teacher.

Well, I hope getting your parents involved helps…

Friday because it's before the weekend? Heh, as far as I remember my instances of going postal in school, they all occured on Friday, or directly before some school-free day. Somehow, most things happening on Fridays seemed like a final piece in the mechanism to tick me off ;)

Oh, and we also have a Literature Teacher at the university who ordered us to write essays three times, but never ever checked them.

It's not just that I felt obliged to do it. I came to her like a week before I left, told her where I was going, and she GAVE me the work, with a due date and everything (which I observed), which would, sensibly, lead me to believe I'd get some kind of credit for it.

I'm not even going to have to lie to my parents to get them to take up my cause, though. My brother took the exact same insane class a few years ago, so they know to expect this kind of crap.

Believe it or not, but I thought several times about rephrasing the phrase "obliged to do it" because I wanted it to include a wider meaning :P

This Friday (the 23rd) is gonna be… the best… ever.

1) Last night of preforming one acts

2) Cast party/Birthday party going straight on till morning.

3) Molly might be there. Hot, flirty, freshman will definitally be there ;).

I'm pumped. Sorry 'bout that teacher, she deserves to get a nice kick in the face. Maybe even two.
