boring.

I hate being a b***h, but I'm pissed at the program I'm in.
I'm in a program for kids that don't behave, do their work, or are generally trouble makers.
I got in there because the workload is easier and my depression got so nasty last year that I missed a lot of school. It's a small program so it'd give me more time to catch up.

So yeah, it was bearable last year. Other than one freakishly messed up girl, everybody else was just a class-skipping "oh I got arrested last night" ADHD kid.
But THIS year we have two kids that are clearly mentally impaired.
The way they walk, talk, act all screams special needs.
AND YET THEY'RE HERE.
We have a special education program in my school, and I know it's only been two days into the school year, but that's clearly where they belong.

For now we have to all sit and listen to this one kid stutter and drone on and on about how he's an "animal fiend" and how much he loves cats. And the other one talk about fishing in a squeaky voice that could pierce somebody's eardrums if listened to long enough.

I only have depression. I don't want to be lumped together in the same group as these kids. Last thing I need to hear is "Ohhh, you're in that program with those retarded kids?"
-headdesk-

If they don't get moved into the "special" education program, I'm gonna just go back to the alternate learning program... even if it is more work.
