How generally rubbish things are. There are a few words I could use to sum things up at the moment, but I'm not overly given to swearing and bad language, so I won't. I'm sure you get the gist of things from that, anyway.
*sigh*
I've insulted myself on here once before, and I got pretty quick responses crying, "No, no, you lie!" so I wonder now, how long it'll take before anyone dares to disagree this time.
I am.
Arrogant. Because they made me so. They told me I was good, and smart, and so on. And I believed them.
Lazy. Because they were right, and I never had to work hard to get anywhere. All easy, right?
Stupid. Because I know that. And I haven't done anything about it.
And before you start sending in your wails of denial, here is the evidence.
Some of you may know about my... problems with a certain English teacher this year. Well, he finally gave up the silent ongoing battle last week, and sent in a Cause for Concern sheet to my form tutor, complaining specifically about two essays he hadn't got from me.
To use a little American slang, bummer.
But what the hey, I can live with that.
But Classics coursework was due in today, and...
Ergh. And. Why does there have to be an and? Sometimes I really hate myself. Yeah. Anyway. Classics coursework. Now, I like my classics teacher. It's not like the English one, I don't like him, and that made it somehow less bad to be bad, you know? But my classics teacher is really nice. She gave me a lift home when I had a migraine, she's put on Latin lessons especially for me, she's been generally fantastic and wonderful and so on and so on unto infinity ad nauseam and back again.
And I didn't hand it in. Again.
She's asked for it twice already. Today was the ultimate, ultimate deadline. She rang home. She reluctantly said that if I didn't hand in an (and I quote) "exemplary piece" on Monday - she's not in school tomorrow, but will be on Monday even though it's in the Easter holidays - there would be no point in putting me in for the exam.
Me.
Threatened with being kicked off the course.
Me.
You see now?
Arrogant. Lazy. And Stupid.
Me.
Yeah, I screwed up pretty bad this time.
