These days I really don't feel like going to school and I don't know why. I don't feel any motivation to go to school anymore. It's not really a good thing because I've been slacking off on school work and some of my grades have obviously dropped by quite a bit. This isn't good. At all. Another thing that has been in my mind is the poetry contest. The finalists before were Angela, Allen, and Elvis. But last time in the email that Ms. Sherry sent to the whole school, the title of the poem that was listed beside Angela's name was mine, so we went to ask the school if there was a mistake. When we asked Mr. Dahl, he said that I was the one that's supposed to be in the finalists. I really don't want to read my poem, a poem about me sleeping in history class, in front of the whole school. Also, the other thing that made me not really happy about this is that I know that Angela really cares about this contest, and I feel like I took away something that belongs to her. If the school didn't make that mistake, she probably would feel better. It's like having someone take away something that is supposed to be mine, and especially how I might have been celebrating it the night before I found out it doesn't belong to me.
