Well, it was about a few weeks ago that school started. It was nice seeing some people again, some teachers as well, and having Mr. Stange's class (he's a really cool guy who's funny, loosened up, and just cool, he also has a lot of funny videos on his computer). Yippee. But one of my teachers is on hell of a prick. He teaches science, middle-aged, has one of those pony-tails like some older-guy's do, short and fat at the same time, and could never pull off a punch line (not that I could, but, damn, was the place silent). He decided to give us a daily homework assignment in which we have to: for 30 minutes, watch, read, or look up on the web, something on science, take notes, then expect to give out a presentation the next day. Then, at Thursday, we have to write an essay on one of those reports. Great. Then on thursday, i do just that, I did something on the new plans for a research station in Antarctica. So, for about an a quarter of an hour, I do just that. But, my printer is jacked up, so for another hour I try getting the damn thing up, then i had my dad print on his computer,finally, DONE. So the next day I put the damn homework assignment in the bin. The teacher looks through the stuff, pulls mine out and calls me a xerox machine basically. Now this fucking made me mad. I spent most of the afternoon doing this weekly assignment, and he fuckin doesn't take. What is the matter? I thought it was because it was on computer, but nope, others did the same and nothing happened to them. Do you know what it was? He thought it was to good for someone my age to write. WTF? (not trying to be arrogant)I was one of the better students in my previous language arts class. Although it may not seem like it here or elsewhere on the web. He says "I know your writing style so don't try so fool me." THIS IS YOUR FIRST YEAR BITCH TEACHING HERE!
Anyways, I see him after school, he comes up and says "What?" like he's pissed. So I explain and says "Are you sure you didn't copied it?" I explain I merely took down notes and such. "Well you need to put in your own words" Ok, somewhat understanding, even though I DID. "I think you're subconsciously trying to copy the article very much" Great, now he's mocking me, on one of the 'Questions of the day', one of my answers had to do with the subconscious. Dammit, he doesn't think i have a vocabulary? "You need to use your own words even though some of them are long and sound cool." Great as well, he's 50+ and said the word cool, and he thinks having a nice vocabulary is too much for an 8th grader. So basically: "You need to dumb it down, ok. A good selection of words are beyond you young man." Idiot, what words are you talking about? Initial? Improvement? What words bitch?? Damn. Then he leaves quickly and says he has a "meeting" to attend to. So you hold up kids in a class for an extra 10 minutes and then have to run to a meeting, RIGHT. Damn, what a fuckin' prick. Sorry, had to blow off some steam. I'm a little tea pot.
I do however still get to chill wit my homegirl Ms. Godfrey aka Ms. G da art teacha. NOW SHE'S a teacha wit da coolness runnin in her blood. Go art teachers, bitches.
