Jaw, meet carpet.

I took my application to be an English tutor to the Teaching/Learning Center today, and the boss lady asked me to have my references and all my past English teachers at Penn Valley e-mail her a reference note. This is including literature classes. Remember last spring, when I wouldn't quit bitching about my Bible As Lit teacher Lisa? Yeah, her too. I went to her office and, with some trepidation (because we did NOT get along in the class), asked her to write a reference e-mail.

She told me she would check over my papers from the class and, if she had anything negative to say about them, she'd let me give her another writing sample before she sent the reference.

(This could perhaps have something to do with the fact that I opened the conversation by saying, "Dr. Spaulding, O gracious and benevolent former teacher?" I'm still fairly astounded, though.)

She's not that bad. I mean, she can be an extreme pain, but at least she's fair. Which is more then I can say for some other teachers I've had. I had her for Comp and Reading 1 and I'm taking her again for Comp and Reading 2. She might not be the greatest, but I'd rather have the evil I know as opposed to the evil I haven't met yet. And the english teacher I had before her? Pure evil. Made Spaulding look like an angel.

Spaulding and I had... issues. We're both very spirited people, and we challenged each other quite a bit. She's great just to talk to, but I would never take another class from her.

I guess in that case, it would be much better to take a different teacher. Save your sanity and all. Or at least as much sanity as you have... :)

Fortunately, I'm currently taking 102, so I won't need any more English classes.

Who's that in your icon?

[mercymckinnon.livejournal.com]

That's always good too.

The person in all of my icons is Abby Lockhart from ER. I'm a fangirl geek. :)
