I don't wanna do my homework

It has been quite a busy couple of days and I'm so damn tired. It doesn't help that I have hayfever due to the amount of pollen you can actually see falling off the trees. Damn them.

For the past two days at the school we have mainly been working on the past tense. I did expect this, however I did not expect my reaction once we started doing this. On the first day on the first morning, our teacher announced we were to start work on the past tense. My first instinct was to keep my head down, try and understand what I could and hope for the best. However, because I have a big mouth and perhaps the best oral skills in the class I thwarted my own plan. Once we had to all take and active part in changing phrases from the present to the past tense, this is when my bizarre reaction commenced. First came the raised heart rate and the shakes when picking up the paper. I then spent the rest of the morning close to tears and feeling really quite ridiculous.

All I can say is thank you so much Ms Chapman for psychologically damaging me and my ability to speak in the past tense or write in French.

Thankfully today, when expanding on the subject I was a lot more at ease and quite open about just how many mistakes I was likely to be making. However, that does not stop the fact that I really don't want to be doing my homework right now, in fact I could quite happily go to sleep. Who knew school was that tiring.
