French or Math?
Grades close on Friday for me. I think I'm doing pretty good, but I'm a little worried about French and Math. Blaming the teacher is the cowards way out, but you guys haven't met my teachers.
My math teacher is the most boring teacher ever. She's one of those stereotypical old people. Not the grannies who live in cottages and bake cookies, but the old crusty ladies who play Bingo and live in senior homes. Her name is Ms. Tuffy. Even her name sounds menacing, Ms. Toughy. She doesn't like to explain things to us. She expects us to know everything and then reviews what we haven't even learned. She's not even that mean, but she is so boring. Living in the Northeast has probably done this to me, but she talks so slow. "Take. Out. Your. Um. Text. Books."
My French teacher C'est mitoyen. Mrs. Kramer is the French teacher for 7th and 8th grade and the Spanish teacher for 8th grade. French is her specialty so she talks really fast and nobody can understand. I always just sit there and nod my head because I don't understand what she's saying. Sometimes she even speaks Spanish to her French class. Last year there was a snow delay and I missed French. I was so excited thinking that I would have a little less work to do that day, but she gave us the homework even though we didn't have her class.
I'm probably getting a B in both of those subjects, not too bad, but my parents don't like anything below an A. They expect me to get A+'s even though I can't get that on my report card. This was totally random. I just wanted to vent a little before I get my report card.

LOL MS. TUFFY! at first i thought of something like mrs. tibbles (which immediately makes me think of a cat, lol) in elementary school we had a gym teacher ms. duffy. like the simpsons' beer "duff". get it? ha. ha... ha. LOL.
mrs. kramer sounds kind of annoying. if i were in your class i'd just tell her to stop and talk slower and explain what she's saying. that's what people do to our french teacher when she's not making any sense and she'll usually be good with explaining and stuff, just because so many people are irritated with her.
ew report cards really are coming out? the schoolyear is one fourth over already! GOODNESS! :o
nov 18 pour mon ecole. :)
annnyyyways your math teacher sounds worse than the french actually. talk to her like after class wit like a GROUP of friends (its always better if more than 1 person agrees on something) &tell her she needs to start explaining stuff more thoroughly.
ahhhhhha yeah i know my french teacher speaks rly fast too! i have mrs. helmy whos literally like 70 yrs old and last yr this girl in my class found out that her MOM had mrs helmy too when she went to our school. so shes been teaching for like 40+ yrs basicaly.
btw are you guys goin to quebec this yr? the trip is like $525! :/
It's so great to finally be in the company of people who panic if they get B's. There's this one girl in my class who jumps for joy if she gets a 70 on a test. Dead serious. One time she took a test and got, like, a zero on it. She just didn't get any questions right. She says she's never gotten an A or a B on her report card. I, on the other hand, am with you guys. My parents would flip if I got a B.
OMG GEENA WE STILL HAVE A GYM TEACHER NAMED MS. DUFFY IN THE MIDDLE SCHOOL... but she got married and changed her name. ANd kingston don't let your parents get to you. it's just how they are
