I'm mad right now.
Because I took a pre-algebra B quiz 3 times, under the impression I understood what I was doing and failed the quiz each time. I did slightly better each try but seeing as I only get 3 tries, I still failed. Since theres only 11 questions that isnt hard.
Which means I cant do the big test that was due today.
Which means my mom is going to be mad at me because it was due and I've failed TWO tests already... And I cant get behind because its so crammed in so much. PLUS i have to work and stuff. And so I spent all my extra time on this quiz and now the teacher is at home asleep and cant reset the quiz so i cant even get to the test right now.
It just frustrates me when I think I understand and then I fail. Everyone says I'm so smart and then all of a sudden I'm failing a stupid little pre-algebra quiz.
I feel completely stupid and I feel like giving up because its no longer worth it.
Which is why it took so long to do the quiz in the first place. I figured if I just took a break, got over the angry feelings and tried again in the morning everything would be fine. But i was busy today. And plus the quiz took a little while and then i was BUSY and... meh.
So now I feel angry and stupid and just totally frustrated because this should be easy. I should understand and I don't and I'm not understanding why i don't understand. Its not like its rocket science. And I'm not even into ALGEBRA yet.
And this school year I have to take an extra english class on top of everything else.
Already I'm starting to get overwhelmed about the whole thing. If I get stuck in the 9th grade I'll feel REALLY stupid though, and REALLY mad. So i don't know which is worse.
Im just hoping I feel better in the morning. And I hope I dont fail this class or it was a huge waste of my time.

I'm just down the street (Rockside) and did very well in Algebra if you need any help. If you need references, ask Pastor. I tutored him when he took Algebra in college lo these many years ago.
Emily, I know how you feel. I'm NOT good at math, and even though I was reviewing everyday with the Saxon books, I kept forgetting how to do certain things! It's really frustrating and it seems extremely unlogical(especially algebra). I haven't failed a test yet, but I don't get A's. So its not just you!
