Mass Educational Disasters
I am failing Mathematics. Yes, it's true! Even I don't believe it. I either fluke subjects or am really good at them.
I don't want a tutor though. I don't want my parents to waste money on getting me one because I'm probably going to end up not listening to them. I know myself. This is why I'd rather have friends help me out - they're in the same position as me and can understand me. I was doing okay the start of the year, a good mark on my first assignment. And then I only get 32% on my Test.
Tets are another thing. You always zone out during them. Complete memory blank. That's probably another reason why they're called tests. I had a Human Biology one... yesterday. I know I've missed 8 marks off of that 65 in the whole thing because I didn't touch the question. I had a blank. Total chaos getting one of those. You tend to silently panic. I felt pretty confident with the rest of that test. I hope I got more than 40 marks, that's over 61%.
I know I can get better at Maths if I apply myself. If I ask my friends for help (which I do do!) Besides, my choice of career doesn't really involve mathematics as such... more English related things.
Upper School is a challenge for a tiny, adapting minds. We still think like Lower School and this whole TEE thing is right over our heads. Give us our time and our space. I know first tests aren't everything... but there was no need to send a letter ALREADY saying I'm failing. Way to raise my confidence. Polding can shove it up her ass for all I care, too. I will continue wearing decent uniform. Stop sending letters home. My parents are not colourblind. At least I am wearing pants! Jesus.
When they said nobody's perfect... they didn't realise how true they were.
