Have I ever told you guys the reason why I DESPISE wooden pencils... probably not but im tell ya' anyways.
So fifth grade, right. You own all the lower grade levels you think your the ruler and they have to do as you say because your older. Well thats another story for another time.
I was still in fifth grade thoughOk
So my teacher was giving out a test that was like 40% our grade or something. I had my yellow trusty #2 pencil, ready to be used. The teacher passes out the test. I pit my name on my paper and stuff. The teacher sits down at her desk and tells us to start.Half way through the test my pencil lead brakes. I was like no biggie. I grab my pencil box or in my case, pencil bag and grabbed my pencil sharpener. Ok so it was one of those crappy ones made for color pencils it didn't have a chamber thing to store the shavings.
So I start sharpening my pencil, purposely trying to be distracting to the annoying kid next to me because why the hell not. I 'swept' the shavings onto his paper. Not the point. I went back to my test and my perfectly pointed pencil broke upon impact to the paper. Triggered a sharpened my pencil again but the lead keeps braking over and over again.
By the 20th time I had to resharpen that pencil it finally was perfect and not loose. So I go back to my test and do two or so more questions and my pencil broke. I was in full rage mode. Full I gonna flip shit mode.
Note I sat closest to the teacher.
Being the easily pissed off ADHD brat I was I chucked the pencil onto my desk. I didn't end with that. Not only it made a loud as noise and caught everyone's attention. The eraser on my very now shortened pencil bounced off my desk and flew into the air. I regretted my whole life right then and there. The pencil literally flew straight into my teachers head. She even screamed.I sitting here debating if I should laugh or hate my life.
I learned a valuable lesson that day.
