I'm very upset about school. I was always a straight A student until I hit grade 9. I'm now in grade 12 and things have gone so downhill. I've been trying so hard to pull up my grades but it's been so difficult.
I'm in entrepreneurship, and my teacher is being so unreasonable. I do have a business, and it's an at-home business. Right now I'm way too busy to do anything with it. Suddenly, she wants me to get my products in vet clinics. And if I don't, I fail my class, which means I fail grade 12. It's so unfair! Not a single other person in any of her other classes has to get their products in stores. I have NO TIME to make enough rat food to fill a clinic. In case she forgot, it isn't the only class I have! I think I should get to decide where I sell my products. It's MY business, I should do what I want with it. I spent all of lastnight cooking rat food, when I could have been studying for my English test, which should be my #1 priority. My mother is on the teacher's side. She said it doesn't matter what I want, or what I think, or what upsets me -- I have to do everything the teacher says. This isn't part of the course, so why should I do it? Nobody else has to do it, and everybody else probably has about the same amount of time as I do, which is practically none. My teacher expects me to make tons of money off of this -- enough so that I can make a living out of it. But I already explained that I don't WANT to make a living out of it. It's a side business, and I don't care how much money I make off of it. I HATE cooking. Why would I want to do it every day of my life?
Now on top of that, they signed me up for a jobshadow the very day I have an English test. The teacher says he won't let me do the test in advance, or afterwards. Does that mean I can't do it at all? If I don't get the hours...I fail grade 12. If I don't do this English test, I fail the term, which means that I fail grade 12. I also had a dentist and counsellor appointments that I had to cancel. I've been waiting to go to that dentist appointment for almost two months. :( My tooth is going to rot and fall out.
So in other words, if I get my product on the market, I have no time to do my other subjects, so I fail. If I don't get my product on the market, I fail. If I don't get my jobshadows, I fail. If I DO get my jobshadows, I miss assignments, so I fail. It's a lose-lose situation for me.
THIS means that I have to refuse to get my product on the market. I lose the credits for that class. That means that I have to get more jobshadows so that I can get 100 hours, so I can get 4 credits back. That means 100 less hours of working on my other classes...so I have to get up earlier and stay up later. As it is I only get 3 or 4 hours of sleep.
I'm soooo stressed out. And right now, I have a horrible migraine. And when I get a migraine, I generally get really sick and throw up. But, they won't let me go home. They are making me wait here until a teacher gets here to sign some stupid jobshadow sheet. So if I throw up, it'll be right here. URRGH.
