Struggles of grade 12

Grade 12, it can be a exciting time for some but a nightmare for others. The academic pressure and students doing everything they can to get the marks they need for post secondary education. We wake up every morning frustrated about getting up so early and the half completed homework. We go to our first class and it's French. Not really remembering french from over a year ago the teacher starts bombarding you with questions and all you can say is "qui" and "non". Then you go to english and your teacher admininsters an English 12 qualification test "issued" by the school board. After passing that test, we recieve our first assignment. A paragraph on grade 12. To get us in the writing mood he makes us walk around the hallway with "style". I dont know if it was to help or if it was for his pleasure to see us look like fools. So my question is why do we force ourselves out of bed every morning, is it to make a fool of yourself in english or are these teachers going to start teaching us kids something.
