I only feel the need to classify one of my seven classes as unbearable.

The only time of the day when I drag my feet and delay walking to my desk is when it’s time for Economics. I realized the first week of class that my teacher and I just don’t mesh. I’m not saying he’s not a good teacher, because I know that a lot of people in my class really enjoy him. I think the real problem is that he doesn’t seem to want to remember me.

It’s a few months into the school year and he has yet to learn my name. I’ve had long conversations with him about how he isn’t entering my grades, then, when I remind him the following day, he can’t remember the conversation even happening! I’m getting more and more frustrated with the situation, because this is one of the classes I need to graduate.

I’m trying to stay positive; my other classes are going really well. But even when everything is going 100 percent fine, I still feel a little worried about my academics. I think I’d learn a lot better if I didn’t feel so pressured to memorize everything.

When I go back to school, I’m going to talk to my counselor about my Econ teacher. I hope she doesn’t think I’m complaining just because I’m getting a bad grade. Graduation, please come faster. ♦
