Happy Holy Easter yo!
Sigh. Try as might, i cant seem to muster up any excitement about this easter. Maybe cause im really really not looking forward to tomorrow.
For those not in the know, while i was away, i missed this presentation (which, for goodness sake, not everyone was supposed to present). And, the teacher refuses to give me any marks for that group presentation even though i really did try my best to contribute to it before i left.
The very thought of it makes me wan to burst into tears. The project is worth 20%. And now, looking through the presentation again, i just feel so .... slighted. And the thing is.. the excuse she gives for not giving me the marks is cause she doesnt know "the extent of your contribution". Does that mean that someone who is present is deemed to have contributed fairly? Doesn't it make more sense that someone who was not present would have done more in order to make up for her absence? I jsut feel that, if she really wanted to be fair, then all she can do is ask me to give hard evidence of what i have done for the group project. Maybe, even give a penalty for me missing the presentation. but to just sweep away what i have done is just....... i dunnoe.. just feel super upset and demoralised by this whole incident and its not even done yet.
I just wish this whole mess didnt have to happen. I dun understand why the Head of Department was okay with my absence but she cant.... i have do another question. Now, under normal circumstances, i would just suck it up and deal with it. But the exams are 4 weeks away. Plus i have one project and 2 tests to do. I don't think i can do a good job of this extra load of work.
arrrghh. im just really not looking forward to tml. I've never been good with teachers. seriously, i can, off the bat, name at least 3 teachers who were very mean to me and picked on me relentlessly all the time in sec school. What is it about me that screams out "if you are a teacher, please pick on me"?
oh geezzz. i have a feeling that whatever i say to her, it's not gonna work. What a mess i cant get out of. ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH. no amount of words can describe the amount of despair, frustration, demoralisation i feel now. It's like wrapping up all the horrible emotions and then swallowing it.
And you know what's the worse part?
I have to attend a wedding tomorrow morning. Which means i cant cry my heart out now , or i'll look like shit in the photos.
oh fuck it. i already feel shitty.
