I spoke to my teacher but unfortunately things didn’t get any better. I went to her a couple of days after my rant on 43things and explained how important and neccessary those two courses are to my future. She gave in and said she’ll get her final marks back from the office and change mine. I was estatic and my Dad was happy too (I brought him along as a witness so the teacher couldn’t accuse me of doing something that could hurt my rep, such as swearing at her or whatever.) I was waiting for her to come back to the classroom and all of a sudden I heard my name on the PA system, calling me down to the office. My vice principal wanted to talk to me. So my Dad and I went to her and she said I’m failing the class, no changes are going to made. My mouth literally fell open and I immediately said that my teacher (who was in the room with us) said she’d take in my assignment. The VP said I missed the deadline. The marks cannot be changed. (which is a lie cuz many teachers had yet to hand in their marks, and to change them just means to open the file on the office pc, and change my failing percent to my honours percent. How hard is that? It’s backspacing twice, entering two new numbers, then clicking save! i’ve seen it being done for my best friend! what the hell!)
So, yeah. I failed. And it’s forever going to mar my Provincial Report.
The only thing I can do now is plead my case to my principal in September. He won’t be able to change my final mark, but he has the power to put me in those courses I need.
I feel like I’m going on trial in a few weeks. I’m so worried.

i hate my teacher! i hate her i hate her i hate her!! and her best friend, another one of my teachers! Argh!!
i cannot believe this. i had a media art’s project due a couple of days before school ended. i was sick for about a week, so i couldn’t give it in that day. i tried the day i got back, but she said the marks were already in. she failed me!! SHE FREAKING FAILED ME!! do you know what this means? i can’t take photography next year, nor the next level of media arts!
lemme just say, I Am The Best Student In That Class. after seeing my skills last year, i was forced by that years teacher to go in this direction! He forced me! That’s how good i am! Sure this project was worth 30%, but i couldn’t help being sick! stupid her and the other stupid teacher. they’ve hated me for God knows how long. you see, i’m in competition with their pet student, so they automatically have to hate me. but this is going waaaaay too far. i mean, her being this unreasonable is going to affect my entire life! i’m starting a business in graphic design and they’re taking my chance to perfect my skills away from me!! Ugh. There should be a law against bitchy teachers. I’m gonna talk to her let her know what’s on my mind.

I’m taking the Photgraphy course for Grade 12ers. It’s gonna start in September. I’m excited, but the lady who’s teaching it is that same teacher I had for my Yearbook course this year. She’s such a tightass. And not in the good way. Ugh. Oh well. I’m stuck with her. Guess I should learn to tolerate that little… that individual. forces a smile
