Confess Your secrets

I completely and 100% DESPISED homework as a kid (and about half of my teenage years). When I was in the 8th grade, we were assigned a project towards the end of the year that counted for a pretty big percentage of our overall grade.

 From what I can remember, it had something to do with shapes and equations - it was basically like a large project of everything we learned the whole year. I didn’t wanna do it. I worked on it a very small amount here and there, but never completed it. The math teacher collected them over a period of a few days, and then was going to spend a few more days grading them all. I played along to all of my other classmates that I turned mine in and even explained what it (maybe) looked like.

The day came and she was finishing up grading all of them, and as she finished each one she gave them back, so some students had already taken theirs home. So she’s sitting at her desk and asks, “spoopy puppy, have I graded yours yet?” And I quickly replied, “Yes ma’m, you give it back to me a few days ago.”

Some wonderful, powerful magic force was working hard that day, because all she said was, “Oh, I forgot to write your grade down. Do you remember what it was?” I didn’t want to aim too high because I knew what work I was capable of, so I simply said, “You wrote 89.” And she just wrote it down in her grade book!!!!! She didn’t question to see it again or anything!!!

I couldn’t believe it worked. That was the only time that ever worked,

 but it worked nonetheless. I passed math because of that lie. I did learn to just suck it up and do all the work from then on.

My little cousins are the biggest shits in the world and my aunt pretty much let’s them do whatever they want without consequence.

They were roughhousing and knocked my phone off the counter, shattering the screen.

My closest Apple store is about 2 hours away and it’s a huge inconvenience for me to drive there not to mention the extra gas. So instead of explaining this to her (she’s the kind of person who doesn’t care about things that don’t effect her directly) I told her it was $329 to fix (which is true if I didn’t have apple care). She wrote me a check for $329 and I only had to pay $29 and I pocketed the extra $300. I consider that my non disclosed inconvenience fee.

 my cousins are 14 and 15. Not exactly toddlers. ok
