WTFFFF???????
SHE RUINED ART FOR ME!
IHATEHERIHATEHERIHATEHERSOFUCKINGMUCH!
I just looked at my timetable and went "oh hell, art." THIS IS FUCKING UNACCEPTABLE! I LOVE ART! IT IS MY FAVOURITE SUBJECT!
The new teacher, Mrs McCubbin, has...UGH! She's made me not want to go to art lessons. If it wasn't for the fact that my whole career plan rests on me getting good art qualifications, I'd do the same as one of my classmates and walk out.
"Oh yes, of course, you can do the work you choose, as long as you do what I tell you as well". ARGH! YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT HERE! I am not doing the work you set because it DOESN'T FIT MY PROJECT IDEA, not because I'm lazy or whatever.
"And please don't be so aggressive about it" Well frankly, she is NOT making it easy to be nice to her when all I want to do is HULK SMASH! through the stupid glue sticks and scissors and let's-make-moodboards-which-look-like-mine.
And as for the homework...ok, she used to work in Bangkok and you know, the Asian schools are notoriously single-minded about this kind of thing but IF YOU WANT ME TO DO A DECENT PIECE OF WORK, HOW ABOUT YOU STOP TRYING TO BE ALL TRENDY AND , YOU KNOW, DON'T DEMAND TWO A3 SHEETS OF DRAWINGS IN TWO DAYS???? I have TWO jobs, the London Expo to prepare for and a Geography coursework project to complete, not to mention homework and friendships. I do NOT spend all my free time doing art. I wish I did, but I don't. So suck it up.
Actually, I ran into Kisuke-sensei of EPIC WIN (aka GCSE art teach mach 1) on the bus the other day and mentioned how angry I was to him and he told me to ignore her and just work to the mark scheme. By this point I was practically begging him to come back. "SIIIIIIRRRRR!!!!!! DON'T LEAVE US WITH THIS WITCH! HELP MEEEEE!!!!!"
SO, in short.
VAL MCCUBBIN, IF YOU ARE READING THIS, RUTH HATES YOU! SO, FYI, DOES EVERY OTHER ONE OF YOUR STUDENTS! FUCK OFF BACK TO THAILAND! AND STAY THERE! THE ONLY THING FUN ABOUT YOUR LESSONS IS THOSE MOMENTS WHEN I CAN BLOCK YOU AND YOUR HORRIBLE TASTE IN MUSIC OUT AND JUST DRAW! (also when your daughter comes in, because she is adorable)
Ze venting, it is done. Bedtime was an hour and a quarter ago. Merrrrrr. *wanders off muttering*
