Current Mood: Scared. Guilty. Nervous.
As you all know school for the most of us is either over or just finishing up which means report cards. (Yay.) Just to keep it brief, this school year has been the best for me, despite it’s ups and downs, mostly ups for me.
Now, as you guys can imagine I’m scared half to death, even, about the report cards coming out, I’ve never been homeschooled before, so it was all new to me as to many others. But that’s not the reason on why I’m scared, the reason on why I’m scared is because of missing work. Now with missing work it’s pain to get it done and then graded and updated, if your teachers use a site to do it on, which mine do. Now, I turned in all of my things before this happened, a couple of math tests, science I can’t do because the thing I use it for (flipgrid) barely worked for me half of the time, (that I expect to get a bad grade on along with Math, because maths a bitch.) and I was sick those days, it was just to make up some tests. Again, for me the virus was only in China and just seemed something like the flu as the way the news was protaling it back then and the way I saw it as well.
I stayed after school for those ‘make -up’ days, the teacher was in there and knew that I was doing the work and all, keep that in mind, anyways, I finished the math work up, placed it on his desk and left. Now, I didn’t expect him to grade it right away he has his class, my class, and another class, his class being the biggest out of the two, so whatever, right? He’ll just go into his computer and tick it off, right? Right? Now, don’t get me wrong I get that people are busy and all and I of course just pushed it off we were also getting ready for MAPS testing and stage forward testing along with getting placed in classes for high school, so you can imagine all the chaos going around, so I didn’t talk to him and I just assumed that he had them all ticket off. Again, fast forward this time being after or around spring break, I can’t remember, but we were all quartined and I then took this opportunity to see the missing work I had and you probably guessed it, the missing work from math, still missing. Did I say anything about it? Nope, cause I assumed that the site was just bugging out, (it often did that) so I just shrugged it off.
-Now to the present, I’m pretty great in school, I mostly managed to pull A’s, B’s and C’s and sometimes a D- in the process of things, mostly math. Now the thing I’m worried about is my parents. Like any parents they take this stuff seriously and with my falling out from last year, bad grades as you can guess, first time in forever, I wanted to try really hard this year and just looking at my grades now knowing that it’s gonna be the same, I’m just scared. The worse I can probably get off is a grounding and a lecture, along with summer school, which is whatever they’re just trying to help and I’m grateful for that but I know a lot of kids aren’t fournatue to have that which I think is just stupid, the abuse they get and all news flash not helping, technology isn’t always to blame, Karen and I could write and whole essay on how I think that all situation and situations are just stupid like yeah sure they failed but if you try to help or just lean in and act like you know what you’re doing, they’ll appreciate it, trust me it can go a long way for some, same goes with teachers and school staff, but listen like I said, I’m over all scared and just mad at myself and extremely guilty for letting my parents down, like I said I’ll try my best to get caught up but I doubt it’ll change.
