Lol the next story that comes to me features more flaws and quirks. Nothing fun – I can’t think of something fun – it’s a story from high school. I thought the grading system of one of my English teachers in high school was unfair because she wasn’t giving us enough credit by rounding to whole numbers all the time. I don’t recall the exact situation but my approach was hilariously tone deaf. I just went up to her and told her that I wanted to write a paper about how I thought her grading system was unfair.

The funny part is that she did end up changing it – to add points for a plus or minus. But the way that I went about it was so completely oblivious to how she would feel about it and just social relationships in general. 100% direct and 0% diplomacy.

I’m seeing a trend here – my favorite stories seem to be about me righting injustices lol.
