i don't remember if i put this up before but i found it going through my mail. it's pretty funny.
i'm pretty much at the breaking point with journalism. it's a really long story but in short, she's been such a b**** that half the class, including some of the section editors, want to drop. i think she's the first person that i seriously consider saying i hate her, but it's such a harsh word. she's incredibly frustrating and doesn't keep her word and frankly, i've lost a lot of respect for her. i liked her last year when i had her for english but now journalism is so annoying that i regret even signing up. and i've wanted to do this since junior high!! that's how bad it's gotten. grr...
just pray this class doesn't kill me (or brienne). and probably that the class doesn't kill her(jk-might walk out though).
