And We All Fall Down

Jan 20, 2005 21:21

So. Today pretty much blew the meter on the worst day ever. Mr.Harvey decided to get Mrs. Selby to give us all shit for the people who've been roaming the halls when classes are in, and how if we dont do a good job in Gr. 9, we're gonna get kicked out of high school, and we're not going to make it. Mrs. Selby gave us some figures.

25% of people get into University/College.
15% Flunk out in the first year.

That hurt. I was so fucking mad. At Mr.Harvey, at all the teachers, except for, and I know its crazy, Mr. Silsly. We had his class next, and he told us they shouldn't be telling us that, and trying to scare us.
I agree with him. There was something in the way she said that that made us feel like... 2 cm tall. It made us feel like she was saying "Only 3-4 of us are gonna get into university, so WHY BOTHER!?"

I cant handle my teachers anymore, they all piss the fuck out of me. Mr. Harvey has turned really mean.. or stressed or something. And he's making us all get penalised for like... 5 people.

they didn't deserve to rip us down like they did today.

-em.
