This incident happened when I was in my doing my +1. [Yeah! meim dasvee pass hey ]
I happened to be a backbencher but used to be recognised and honored by my principal for every happening in my school campus.
Yeah..you guessed it right, fame brings its own problems with it.No wonder people like Marc Anthony, Tomcruise etc hide their faces behind beeg goggles; unfortunately my campus rules didnt permit me from wearing anyof those face hiding stuffs.
The subject I used to score quiet well used to be, the subject biology [Did I hear you say...aaaaaaaaawwwww .Zip it..Zip it.] +1 used to be like a vacation academic year, because all the teachers want 10th and 12th students to score well.So +1 students are kinda spared and the 10th and 12th students are grilled to the core.
But then again my comrades....we feel like convicts sentenced to death and awaiting execution.
In the Biology exam, the essay part, I wrote my heart out on the topic "Deforestation and Its Impact on Earth". Yeah any politician can speak on that topic for hours, so I could write an 8 page essay on that.
Well, having completed the rest of the questions in biology quiet well and having enough time to spare for a lengthy Essay I was not taxing myself on the words and yeah even paper.
..
..
Finally the day came when the answer sheets were passed back to us.
To my surprise and having cracked my poor brain cells and the muscles on my arms and fingers, the Biology sir only gave me 1/2 mark for my Essay.
huh!
The dork who was sitting next to me got,well good marks.
This calls for the COMRADE inside me taking the Rose out of the GUN BARREL and Squishin it with boots.
..
..
I went to meet my teacher Mr.Biology.
The conversation is as follows
___________________________

Me:Sir..Ive done quiet well and only half mark for the whole thing.[Trying to be calm and puppy eyes]
