I learned not to use a different colored pencil when filling out an alcohol drug survey in math class. Ms. All-rabid started failing me on quizzes when she realized what I had done wrong by drinking beer and smoking pot and cigarettes several times a week-according to my honest answers in the survey.
Instead of getting the help I needed in the counseling department, I got burned in applying to engineering school because of the one semester of an average grade. Susan Wokeman showed me her quiz with the same mistake I made, but she didn’t get dinged and got an A.
