The big scare...
This morning my biology teacher comes in and begins talking to us about the best way to stay on top of our studies in her class and the things we should already be familiar with...and she's greeted with blank stares across the board. So she says to us: "alright then, take out a sheet of paper, it's time for your first test." I take out a sheet of paper and the first question she asks I'm unsure about but venture a guess. The second question I have a vague idea, so I attempt another guess. The third, however, I haven't the foggiest and I'm assuming a majority of the rest of the class didn't either because she told us that if we didn't know to just write "I don't know." So I wrote that and continued on to the next question. Now mind you by this point my anxiety level is through the roof! And it's not like I'm behind on the reading or anything, yet I have no freaking clue what this woman is asking me. The third question I didn't know either...and I swear that I must have started hyperventilating. I go on to the fourth and fifth questions and attempt yet more guesses. Not one single question could I answer with any feeling of certainty!
As we're turning in our papers she tells us that she may or may not take this for a grade, and that we should have already been familiar with the questions that she had asked us and that if we weren't we were seriously behind. And so of course I'm in full panic mode. Then, at some point a few minutes later as she's laying into us, she says "if you don't already know this then you should consider going back to 2107." To which we all turn and look at each other, then look back at her, and a few of us call out "this is 2107..."
Turns out she thought that our class was 2108, the next class in the sequence. And as she's apologizing you could hear a collective sigh of relief from the entire class as we're all finally able to breath again.
Wretched woman.
