When does it end???
This has been an incredibly crass day.
This morning, I was supposed to report on three feminist philosophers in my Christian Ethics class. But to my bewilderment, when I entered the classroom, my classmates were already preparing to leave. I was so confused.
At first I thought that he cancelled the reportings. Then, when I asked a classmate, he told me that our teacher already called the reporters when the bell rang. And when nobody stood up to report, he cancelled them - which means a score of ZERO for me. How fucked up is that?
I remember him telling the class that we 'd be getting a grade of INC if we weren't able to report. Now, what's the point in going to his class if I'm sure to get an INC?
MY TEACHER SUCKS BIG TIME!!!
Then, when I've finally made up my mind about dropping the subject, my friend tells me that it would be considered 'withdrawn'. I can't withdraw! It's just so wrong... Ugh!
If that weren't sucky enough, I go to the SG office in the afternoon only to be met by an editorial in the school paper saying that the CSO people are 'amateurs'. Ok, so what choice did we have but to let it go, right? Then, when I turn the page, another article which contained a quotation by me was there.
"What the ...!?!>@$ How the hell did he get this quotation?!?! I haven't seen him - or given him an interview! What the...(*&$)# UGH! They made me look dumb... AGAIN!!! The last time, they misquoted me and i seemed so stupid... and now, THIS!"
And so, out of anger (and a bit of embarrassment - gosh, who wouldn't be... EVERYBODY READS THE SCHOOL PAPER!), I went to their office and looked for the writer who wrote both articles. He wasn't there.
I talked to the people there instead (more like addressed the whole room, actually), and told them how pissed off I was about the article.
I did get a phone call and an apology from the writer but I'm still in the process of "recovery" right now.
That was SO EMBARRASSING! Hahay. Responsible Journalism. There goes my respect.
