In sixth grade everybody hated me. Insofar as kids actually hate someone they hardly know who's in their class, that is.
In seventh grade, I went to a new school. We had to memorize a poem. I memorized a poem by John Donne (yuck but anyway). When I got to class, I realized that everyone else had memorized poems like well-- not sure like what, but definitely not like John Donne.
Got up to recite poem (teacher noticing that I was frantically trying to avoid being asked to recite, left me to last)-- I actually couldn't say a word. I mean I didn't want to, but what surprised me beyond all reason was that I actually couldn't say anything. I think two small tears trickled down my face, and I stood there for a while without saying anything, until the teacher told me to sit down.
Gee, I can't imagine having that happen to me now. Ohyeah, guess that's why I dont have a job.
Bummer.
