Fail In School

The Teacher From Hell Ding! Dong! Ding! Dong! The dismissal bell just went off. As I was leaving the classroom, my teacher, Mr. Rase, the one I hate the most called me over and said “Jake Hazel, are you ready for the test”
I quickly responded with a head nod and said, “Yeah I think I’ll be ready.”
Mr. Rase then gobbled on by saying, “Fail is going to be what’s written all over your test!”
So I quickly turned around and left the classroom, the only thing that I had going through my head was Mr. Rase stroking his long 2 foot beard and stamping the word “FAIL” in all capital letters on my test.
It was about three o’clock when I arrived home. I grabbed my backpack and sprinted inside because of the thunder. I ran into my room, shut my door,

I can’t get him out of my head. All he does is fail people on purpose because it pleases him!” My dad responded, “Jake, just do your best, you only get one shot at thisLater that night, I was laying in bed. It was around eleven o 'clock, and all I could think about was my teacher failing me on this test. I thought to myself that I knew how important this was to everyone in the class, so maybe he 'd fail us all. He was the only thing I could think about. About two hours later I still could not sleep, not because I was worried, but because all I could still think about was my teacher stroking his beard and laughing at me while he stamps “FAIL” all over my test.
That morning I woke up with a headache, only getting about three hours of sleep. I got dressed without showering and just showed up to the classroom. I signed myself up on the wrong day to take this, which is why forever in my life, I could call this the worst Friday ever! Only nineteen of thirty one kids in the class showed up, which means they paid their way out. When the devil himself, Mr. Rase showed up, he already had a bunch of victims tests in his hand, and his red marker to show how much they failed. Even if you know for sure you got a ninety percent on the test, you end up getting a forty or thirty percent on the test. I finished the first two parts quite early so I thought I 'd check them over. When I finished, the whole test after a five hour period, I was so nervous on handing my test in. I wanted to wait as long as I could to see if I could give my test to a different teacher that came in. Finally when he said “Pencils down little devils, I 'm collecting the test!” everyone panicked, and had their heads down walking up to give him the

    A loud click was heard from the ceiling of a filled classroom, the echo of the microphone from the office announced static-filled speech. “Logan Hatchback to the office please.

    So he decided to call the students one by one but of course he was basing himself on the roster that he had. Indeed my turned came, and he told me that sadly I didn’t pass, and that he was sad because, he knew that I was a good student that he doesn’t know what happened to me. So yes the next semester came around, and it’s like this if you don’t pass it they right away give you a retaining class which that pretty much means that you didn’t pass the test, and in the other hand you’re going to waste another half semester in a retaining class instead of you taking another, class that it could be really useful, or one that you just simply need. Well long story short I finally walked in, and I actually got a pretty nice teacher that he could actually controlled the classes that he had. Well indeed, finally the day of the exam came over, and I simply told myself that I could do it that I simply just had to read it carefully, and just simply had to take my time, and this time I was going to pass because, I had a really good teacher, and…

    It was always my goal. Ever since I went to a debate camp there over the summer, I knew I wanted to go to Stanford. The worst part of it all was that I actually, genuinely, wholeheartedly believed that I could. I believed that I was different.

    Around halfway through the year, classes became unbearable with the constant, dehumanizing schoolwork. Every assignment tugged and cracked any remaining portion of uniqueness I had left. I felt that the curriculum was intentionally designed to ready us to be a factory worked with a company ID instead of a name, just like the A.T. PERSONAS forced down our throats. Since he subjected me to infernal besiegement on a daily basis, I thought I should pull a prank on my homeroom officer. Every day he would use his superfluous title as ‘officer’ to subject us to his whims, just to inflate his pompous ego.…
