If my school's teachers were to spell like that, some would be smarter than they are now.

I make that comment with no sarcasm.

So it seems the first semester, or half, of my school year is almost over. Two weeks. But the problem with that is that the teachers are now fitting two-day lessons into 15min. of 100% education. We covered WWI in one week, I have a project due Tuesday that counts for 10% of my English grade, a few non-final tests on Wednesday, more tests at later dates, no actual learning, and the teachers finally catching up with their work.

What does this mean to me? It means I'm happy. Y'see, I specialize in last minute crap. I pull projects out of my a**s much like...well, I care not at what other people pull out of where. The point is I do it with much skill. I've pulled out 2 English projects (both of which got A's) this year, a few Spanish projects last, and more than likely a few from the year before. It's pretty much how I pass a class. Do nothing, pull a project out of my a**s much like a magician pulls a rabbit from a hat (it's magic!), then pass with a B or so.

Which is how I pass English. My teacher is illiterate, retarded, crazy or more than likely a combo meal short of a medium sized drink of the three. She spent a whole day telling us her life story for no reason. I can picture her making the final one essay question, with it being "So, what was the philosophical viewpoints of life that the youth from Red Badge? HMM?" I would be surprised if she didn't put down such a useless question. Or the HMM? for that matter.

And now, as I'm rereading the question, I realize how many grammar mistakes are made. I refuse to correct them as that would credit intelligence she doesn't have.
