Angel at his table Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Everybody can make a mistake. Nobody's perfect ;) So don't worry! Your teachers know you - they'll forget this very soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Gordon Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 ok verdict is in.... :cry: I'm getting an F for my final grade and 3 days suspension...this can't be happening! :cry: ...I just experienced something I constantly fear..."failure"... :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Peedston Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 just because you're an honors student doesn't mean your punishment should be any less harsh. my sister (who is also 13 and also an honors student) got suspended for a week awhile ago because she had a pocket knife in her bookbag. on the bright side, that's one mistake you'll never make again. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet One Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 I strive to fail. That way, if i fail, i've succeeded, but if i don't..at least i didn't fail. alrighty, sorry to hear that jeff gordon, but like tom peed said, that's one mistake you'll never make again.
