Okay Jem here! Today we're going to talk about how math can ruin your day.
I have Geometry third block so 1st and 2nd I had been just fine. After eating lunch which wasn't much I headed to my math class to take the dreaded test. When she passed out the paper it didn't look like much. I was delighted, I thought I may actually pass this. It had been a cruel illusion....
Imagine my horror when I flipped the paper and saw more questions. Worst of all they were word problems. I did a quick prayer and delved into the test hoping to make at least something higher than an 80. First few problems were nothing to sweat about but then they started getting harder, more complicated. I tried to rake my brain for answers, truly I did but no matter how much I tried I couldn't remember the formulas. When I finally battled my way to the back I felt like to die.
I skipped one and like always it became a rutine, I started skipping all the ones I thought were hard. Problem was they all were. Then finally like always my brain shut down entirely, I fell asleep. It always happens when my brain is being over loaded. When I came to it was almost time for the next class. I tried to rush through the ones I could at least understand bits of but even that seemed futile.
Luck was on my side because my teacher was gracious enough to let those who did not finish try the next day. I don't think the person who created math knew just how many people would come to hate him in time.
Well that's all I have to write about, nothing else eventful really happened today. Well there was that one thing in Art III where two of my friends were being extreme perverts but no one needs to know that. Thank for letting me rant and bitch.
