I HATE RFH
So...in English class we're doing this political project where we have to post on a messageboard and respond to other people's and so on and so forth and if a topic is "full" if it has 3 posts. So I did my work on the assignment, I posted as they wanted me to. However I woke up this morning to find that my posts were 4th, 5th, and possibly 3rd on the lists. I went in to speak to my English teacher and she pretty much said "well then it sucks to be you" because there aren't any other posts other than my own and I can't reply to that for credit. So after being pissed off about that, she went more into the world writing unit which makes me wanna bring an American flag into class to begin with and she subtly bashed the government. I go to English class to study English and literature....not my teacher's political views. So what the crap? I have to sit there and be lectured about how the government keeps information from me? I'd rather take an F than have someone try to change my opinion and hate America. I saw it coming too....and as a student of RFH, there's nothing I can do about it. It's bullshit, I know my rights outside of school, but inside the walls of the classrooms, I have no say and neither do any of the other students. Want to do well? Suck up to the teachers...I promise you'll pass with flying colors. Sorry, but that's not what I do. I am the rebel of the zodiac and my nature is chaos. If I don't wanna deal with something, you'll know it, and if I have to do it anyway, I'll rebel among what I do have power over. For example, in 8th grade, Mr. Galante made us read the New York Times a lot and after a while I got tired of it and brought in a New York Post and read it right in front of him. I gained respect from him by doing this whether he will admit it or not. So if they're going to expose their political views and show America in a negative light, the cards are on the table, let's play.
So after that, we had Tower Singers and we evaluated our performance. Joe and someone else who wasn't named brought up a really good point that there is a huge talking issue and I wholeheartedly agree with them. You have time during the day to talk, but don't do it when we're trying to get through something. But what REALLY bothered me about that is that during said conversation, people were talking and fooling around on both sides of the room. TOWER SINGERS IS NOT A PLACE TO SIT AND TALK DESPITE PRIOR BELIEF. YOU ARE TAKING IT FOR CREDIT AND WHEN YOU PERFORM YOU ARE REPRESENTING THE SCHOOL. SO GROW UP AND ACT LIKE IT, BITCHES. Enough said.
The gym teachers show serious serious favoritism to the athletes in the class and it's bothering me because they get special treatment. They get away with more than anyone else can who isn't an athlete. Roar.
So what did I learn today? I learned that no matter how hard I work, I cannot change things. People will always be annoying and get on my nerves and exhibit behaviors that my parents worked hard to keep me away from (and did a really good job of doing so). If you are not popular, you are weak and powerless in the eyes of society. And I am at the bottom of the food chain, it seems. Well children, I'm tired of being shoved in a corner. I'm not taking what society tells me to do with a grain of salt anymore. I am a conservative adolescent living in the United States of America and my personality is frowned upon by people. I am not bowing down to them anymore, I am my own person and it is my job to get as far in life as I can. So screw opinions, screw values...I'm taking matters into my own hands now. I will be heard if it the last thing I do!!!!!
