I hear better out of my right ear and sometimes words mean nothing in my left

I write with my right and so I sit on the right side of the room and twist ever so to the left when in class. This puts my right ear closer to the front and further from background chatter while also being the best for a quick glance at the board while taking notes without having to twist my head (usually)

Unfortunately when people behind me talk or people on the far side of the room talk it’s buzzing nonsense mixed with words which means I have to TWIST myself around to better hear them

Which puts my back to the front of the room

And I’m just staring dead eyed at the people behind me as I listen to a classmate ask yet another unrelated question

#this is just rambling #I complained to my mom that a classmate sat behind me today and he just TALKS all class #and I think that’s just how he reaffirms the knowledge #but it irked me #because it kept jumbling up what I actually needed to hear #and he was wrong most of the time anyways #and my mom just told me to move seats #and I was trying to explain that NO #I CANNOT MOVE SEATS #my seats are carefully chosen based on board/instructor location #which is why I’m always EARLY #and the dude behind me is usually LATE and DISRUPTIVE #and I need to find a diplomatic way to ask him to please not sit behind me again #because he’s annoying enough on the other side of the room #directly behind me just starts making me want to scream
