English = Crap?

Stress...is killing me.
My dad's convinced he will be in next layoff; and the way things are looking, he may not just be paranoid this time.

He's most likely going to start an age discrimination lawsuit.

My mom's been overdoing everything, not sleeping, drinking a lotta vodka at nights, sick, tired lately which has been worrying me.

I almost assaulted a teacher this week; I was so angry at her I was red, shaking, and not thinking clearly. Luckily, self-control and the impending threat of jail calmed me down enough to not hit her.

She gave me 2 zeroes and a 50 as test grades on the notecards that I literally made myself sick getting done last week. Why? One might ask. Because of a couple little mundane mistakes, a typo, and unclear directions on her part.

After talking for the better part of a half an hour -- I got her to reconsider the grades, and fix the typo (one of the zeroes should not have been zero). But I'm still angry, I think most of the bad grades will stand. I find this to be a personal attack on my integrity - - with grades like that, people look at you in a completely different way. What really pissed me off though is the amount of work I put into those notecards knowing from the start that even my teacher thinks they are a worthless waste of time.

Today she made Bethany cry, so they had a looong conference whilst I waited outside ( she's my ride home since my car's dead as a dead guy). And apparantly with the help of her parents, they all made Mrs Johnson cry. Normally I'd feel bad, but this teacher has been doing shit to me for the last couple months that are unacceptable. I've just had a death in the family a couple weeks ago, and added to the above grievances -- this just is not the time to push me.


I seriously was about to assault the teacher

I dont think my parents have even seen me that angry before.
