Fuck. A few days ago, I was supposed to get my report card. Yet, I've never actually got my report card, because my family and I were away on that exact day. Afterwards, there were a bunch of "ugly" events that happened.
Now, since I didn't pick it up on the specific date, I'm going to have to pick it up within a few weeks. Just today, my parents questioned me about my report card, and I had to tell them about few of the marks that I have gotten. I told them I had a few As, and Bs. To tell you the truth, I did have some Cs, and some other marks that really slap the asian stereotype. Obviously, I didn't tell them, because they would actually do everything, the traditional Korean way. Giving punishments.
When I had mentioned that my estimate of my total average in English was an 80. My mom, all of a sudden, freaked out and bitches to me about why I can't get over 90. She questioned me about the 100% on an assignment I've completed before. One single tiny fucking work that I got back in January. She won't stop talk about it, and continues to yell at me. They even expected me to get an average over 90. Fuck, even my nerd friend couldn't get over 90 average from my teacher. (More info about her explained at the bottom.) Then, they compare me with my other friends, who got 90 from THEIR teachers. Honestly, their teachers weren't doing anything. I've seen so many countless mistakes (I'm an English perfectionist.) on my friend's paper that he was going to hand in, it shouldn't have even been something called work. It should been called a worthless piece of paper with ink all over it. There was a sentence that went like this. "She was like a superstar. There was a big huge wall of men around her." (No dramatization. Real stuff. I even have the sheet in my hands at the moment, because he wanted me to edit it. I had the rough copy, and told him all the things he needed to correct.) And that wasn't even the worst sentence in the paragraph. There were more sentences in the paragraphs with far more errors, and the grammar was so pathetic, it just forced me to laugh out loud. Yet, he still managed to get a 90% with that piece of shit. He lived in Canada longer than I have, and gets better marks than me in everything. He indeed is a good student, and has a decent knowledge, but English is something I'm actually better than him at. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the teacher didn't even looked at his sheets.
Back onto the real subject, I explained to them that my teacher isn't the easiest marker and is in fact, a harsh one. Yet they don't listen to anything I say, or anything coming out of my mouth.
Here's a bit more info about my teacher.
My teacher was a tough marker. She's not a bad teacher, but she's prefers everything to be done in her own format. It's certainly not a bad thing if you get used to her ways of instructing, because she's actually an entertaining teacher with good advices good advices. However, as I've said before, she's a very touch marker, and probably one of the hardest marker in the school. However, before she gives any work to anybody, she clearly state what she looks for in a good piece of work.
Again, back onto the real topic at hand, my parents make an excuse with the 100% one, and asks "I want answers why you didn't try hard enough". Well, I FUCKING DID. I worked my ass off, got a few compliments from one of the toughest teachers around, and even managed get a higher mark than the most majority of the class. Even so this is the compliment I got? Bull fucking shit.
I honestly don't get it. They never seen how my teacher marks, and they just complain, complain, and complain. They have set up an impossibly high expectation, and expects me to fulfill it. They're not understanding my current situation, and they just think they're righ. They refuse to listen to my reasons, and that just pisses me off. Due to the fact that I got a few Cs on my last report card, I lost my computer, my ds, and everything that has to do with electronics. I got a terrible laptop now, instead of a good computer, and so on.
I even got a higher mark than my brother, back when he was at my age. (We had the same teacher, and he said he never gotten anything over an 80 from the teacher before)
I don't even know how they're gonna react when they see my 1 F, and my other C- or F. (2 As, 2 Bs, 2 C+s, 1 absolute F, and 1 F or possibly a C-) If they think a C+ is one of the worst thing next to a F, how am I gonna get out of it?
I just don't care anymore. I've lost all hope. I'll still try to achieve my goals, but I just won't listen to them anymore.
