Today in Algebra II G, we took a test on information we've gone over for about a week, maybe two.
As we usually do.
And our teacher, Mrs. Baggett, told us last week the test was today.
I wasn't too worried, because I don't study for tests, and I pass most of the time.
This time,
When the test was handed out,
I already knew I was doomed.
I couldn't recall the information, because yesterday she decided we were going to move on in the chapters.
Completely at a loss, I only answered a few of the questions.
Through all of 5th period English, I sat there, staring at the wall.
I was ticked off at both myself, and the teacher.
She shouldn't have moved on until after we took the test!
But, anyway,
Once lunch came, I walked outside and put my things on the brickwall I always sit on, and waved goodbye to Taylor as she and a few others went to eat lunch. I stood there for a little bit, and thought about what I could do.
Then, worriedly, I hurried to the counselors office.
I was scared that if I didn't pass this class,
I might not pass the year.
And I might be held back.
I was so scared, I could only find the 10th grade counselor.
I talked to him, and he sat me down and looked at the classes I've taken, and I just sat there and kept fighting back tears.
I kept thinking of how I could be held back,
And how I could fail.
How my college life could be in jeopardy,
And my entire future could be down the tubes.
I had to struggle not to cry.
Mr. Cloud, the counselor, eventually told me that I would be fine.
He explained that I have enough credits, even without that Math class,
To pass the 11th grade, and move on to 12th.
I was still on the verge of crying,
But I was able to repress it.
He went on to tell me that the only class I would be required to take to pass high school was English 4.
But, I plan on taking others, just because.
I was so scared.
I don't know if I've ever been this horrified.
