Day 351-Good Student

Tuesday, May 12th

Hey guys,

       Alluding to my previous post, I have been having to deal with a teacher who is taking advantage of his power, and has disrespected all of his students and the work they've done for him. He has shown that he has put essentially no effort into this class, or his students, yet he expects them to put forth their best effort. Every part of my being wanted to give him a crap assignment, because that's what he gave us to begin with, but I had to resist. I realized that it was not worth risking my grade in this class to prove a point, and this teacher should get my best effort, whether he deserved it or not. One of my favorite quotes from Dave Willis, "Show respect even to people who don't deserve it; not as a reflection of their character, but of yours." is what I just lived my life by today. 

<3 Always,
Rose
