French - Ok, so I was 1% off the "pass-mark" for a verb test yesterday (which involved learning over 300 words, for a 24 question test - how sodding awkward can one person be?) and was told to return to the room today at lunch to "go over" the questions (I suck at French - nuff said. Despite the fact I'm in top set :D). However, alarm bells rung - what am I going to do about lunch? So, I decided to get my lunch and THEN go to the French room. I get it after running to the queue, go to the French room to find...nothing. Must've been one helluva quick "go over". So, I meet some of my friends who had to go their also, and they basically tell me that I have a 20 minute detention after school Monday (my first detention - yay!). Well, I'll be buggered if I'm going to a detention for something I haven't done wrong. Firstly, the teacher shouldn't've been cretinous enough to expect me to miss out my lunch for some French vocabularly that I'll probably never use. Hell, I have no plans on ever visiting France. Asked my dad and he said he'd support me, even give the teacher a rather nasty mouthful :D
Secondly - Maths. I had to go down to our school library here and print off some work. The librarians basically tutted as I entered the library in the first place, as if to say "get out of here as fast as you can" (meh, all the reason more to stay half an hour :P). So, I got the work done and was printing it. I stood by the printer, waiting for it when a moody cow-of-a-teacher's voice bellowed "everyone down in their seats! Now!". I stayed at the printer, as it would be in my hands in a few seconds. Then she took a shot at me, telling me to find a seat. I refused and so we argued back and forth and I stated that there's no point finding a sodding chair for 10 seconds, in which time my work will be out of the printer and I'll be finding my way back to my class (that certainly made the teacher shut up :D). It was very tempting to say "I've had a bad enough day already, and I don't need ignorant, power-mad teachers making it worse". Ah, I can still dream :D
Hmmm. Sodding teachers who think they're always right REALLY get to me. Still, it's fun to argue and prove them wrong, as I normally tend to do, and if they lower my grade, it's also fun to report them for that :D
Makes me wonder if a GCSE is really worth all this...

Her name is Mrs Allison. And I despise her with a passion. And she makes ridiculous mistakes and doesn't teach. Some examples.
"We are doing 4 things in today's lesson"
All fine you say? Well she was holding up 3 fingers...And I heard this behind me today to a .. well ... intellectually challenged pupil ..
"I'll assume its right"
Shouldn't you stupid teachers mark it???
Plus, the head of Business Studies is gormless. And smells.

That was probably my main job in school! VERY fun to make their everyday lives hell... although I did feel sorry for them when I left, YES I did just day that. But I can't be bothered to back that up! :)
I was such a little poo in school, I had to have these little chats every week with my Head of Year, and the question he asked everytime was: "Are you pregnant?" WHAT? Why would a teacher ask you that? Fool!
Anyway, I just thought, everybody makes somebody's life Hell, so I'll take my anger out on them! Hehe! :)
