Reading books in elementary school

My school used to make us read a book on vacations and then do an exam of the book or put some questions about the book on the next exam we had or maybe make us do a project about it (that was basically some worksheets with questions to answer). Let me tell you something real quick: I never, and I say, NEVER read a single book (or at least read more than half of it) in my hole elementary school years.

Like seriously, did those teacher really expect me to read a book of more than 30 pages? jajajajajsjsjsjjjassjaja You gotta be really silly to actually think that a 9-year-old me was going to READ A BOOK. ON HOLIDAYS!! lmao!!!!

I remember how I used to search on the internet all the answers of the worksheets they told us to do about the books. There was a time I did that and I got a 0, like, all the answers of the worksheets were wrong because as I didn’t find many of them on the internet I decided to be creative and invent them myself. Obviously that didn’t work. When she gave them back to me she asked me if I had even read anything from the book, and as the clown I was I straight up said NO to her face. I didn’t even try to pretend I was interested on it at all.

But the best thing is that the teacher gave me a second opportunity to do it again so my mark won’t be so low. She was actually a really nice person to me because I was one of here favourite students.

She was like: (with a sweet voice) «Angel, you failed the work so you’ll have to repeat it and give to me again so your mark won’t be so low»

And I was like: «Ok i’ll do it»

*in my mind*: OH HELL NO!!! I’M NOT DOING THAT SH*T AGAIN!!! NO MA’AM! MH MH! NAH! NOPE! NO! HUH HUH!

I didn’t feel like doing it so I just didn’t, and guess what? I passed the course successfully with no problem! WOW, what a surprise!

That day i learned something very important (that I kind of already new):

DON’T READ BOOKS, IT’S USELESS.

no no no, I’m kidding. read books, people! (you see, I’m a good roll model 😉 )

But seriously, since that time Idgaf about the books they force us to read in school and later do and exam about it or something. For example, I did an exam yesterday and 2’5 points of it were questions about a book we’ve been reading in class. We had to do a summary of the first 6 chapters. I had read three and half. But hey! do I care? do I care? absolutely not. I wrote the best thing that came up to my head and finish.

Okaaayyyyyyyy l’m leaving it here. Hope you have a wonderful day

bye 🙂
