Blegh ok so today in sixth period, which is my English class, uhhh, I really like that class. English as a subject it not my favorite but that class in particular is really fun and my teacher is really intense and good. And she’s yeah very intense about basically everything and yesterday she sort of singled me out because she was talking about feminism, and ok I agree with her a lot about everything but she thought my expression was mocking and proceeded to lecture me on how I Need To Know This Stuff and because I am an agreeable person I just sort of made up an excuse as to why I looked that way even though I actually agree with her?? IDK why I am the person that I am but yeah.

And so today we were all talking about more things and she singled me out again (which she does this to everybody really I am one of the least-picked on students in the class) and then later, she looks at me dead on and asks why I look that way?

and I say “what way?” and she tells me that I am always smirking and rolling my eyes and that she knows I am smart but that if I am bored I can go outside and she is feeling mocked

and I am just sort of sitting there in horror because I don’t feel like I am being mocking, and I said that I just move my face a lot when I think

And then my friend said “yeah she makes those faces when I talk to her also it’s not just you” and ok yeah I make faces a lot but

dang I didn’t think it was a problem, but hmm yes it is something I have been told before and I said that basically everyone I know has at one point complained at my facial expressions

which I guess are inappropriate in a classroom setting? can someone’s face be inappropriate? 

I mena I just move my eyebrows a lot and always look a little grumpy, that is just the way that my face is

So then the teacher told me to try to control my face “because you’re an actor aren’t you” and to “be happy”. 

I feel happy :( ON THE INSIDE WHERE IT COUNTS UGH

WHY DOESN’T SHE LIKE MY FAAAACE

I JUST AM AN EXPRESSIVE THINKER OK

blegh
