i know im not a great writer, no better than anyone from the street really. but i do get high marks for assignments, and i work extremely hard on them. So this is where the issue is, i got a fail mark for my english. Which i thought was absolutely ridiculous since that same teacher gave me near college level scores for all my assignments(in year 10 btw). The reason for my grade being lowered was that i hadn't completed one assignment at the start of the year. Now excuse me, but i didn't know one assignment could take me from over achiever to failure... i guess that's how life goes though right? if you argue with your teacher when she sees you're all going to grow up in that particular small town, get married and have babies, when you disagree and say your going to have a future, your not going to settle down in such a small empty place, your going to travel and leave. You're going to escape all the way to the other side of the world. She didn't like it very much at all. Not only is she a bitch like that, pardon my language. But she is extremely paranoid about people hating her, she talks about herself for sometimes hours on end and manages to be vain and hate herself at the same time. that takes talent really i suppose.
