I'm sick and bored. I once had an art teacher that didn't like me. Like smiled at everyone else except me. Never gave me a good grade even though I tried my best and did the work. (I would like to point out that I was not even supposed to be in that class. The councilor forgot to put me in grade appropriate courses so I had to take courses that were two levels too high for me because there wasn't space for me in my grade. My mom who worked there was PISSED.) So I started deliberately creating insane art to piss this teacher off more. She liked classical art, but I wanted the antithesis of this. You want an animal study? Okay it's a multi colored-blocked giraffe eating cupcakes growing off a tree. Nature study? A woman is skydiving directly into an active volcano and there are tornadoes in the background. Linocut block print? It's a kiwi bird with the body of a strawberry.

To add further dismay to the teacher, I won my grade's junior duck stamp submission for the school. Wanna know why? Because I was the only 7th grader taking a 9th grade level art class. There were no other 7th graders that submitted. Keep in mind I wasn't there because I was super good at art, I was there due to a clerical error the school didn't bother to fix. So the teacher had to give me an award on stage.
