That sucks. It was tough. I had to maintain that in my household. So we're reading this book. We have a reading check. I'm at the point, if I do bad on another reading check, it's going to bring my grade down to a C. And I'm really dreading it. So we have this test on a Tuesday. Monday night comes, I didn't read. And this is 2010, 2011.

So there's not iPhones when you get to school, you can like cram, you can do the spark notes. So I get to school, the class before my English class is PE. We're doing basketball. It's one of my loves. We're in a really intense pickup game. I'm playing point guard. At one point I get elbowed really hard in the chest. I'm okay.

It took me a second to catch my breath, but I kind of had this light bulb moment. Maybe I just exaggerate this a bit. So when I get to this class, I can go to the nurse and take the test a little later. I finished the class. I didn't go to the nurse right away. I went to the locker room. I'm trying to sell it a little bit. I'm not telling anyone of my ideas. So I'm sitting in the locker room like,

I'm really not feeling that great. And they're like, oh man, you good? I'm like, yeah, I really got elbowed really hard and I'm just not really doing too hot. And they're like, oh man, you good? I'm like, yeah, I'll be good. I'll be good. I'm walking to class. I'm really trying to sell it as I'm walking. I'm dragging ass a little bit. I'm walking up the stairs, maybe stopping every few steps.

Get in the full character. I make it to class. It's second period. I'm sitting next to a couple of guys. The guy sitting next to me is this guy, Caleb. So I'm like, yeah, guys, I'm really not feeling good. Even Caleb looks at me. He's like, man, do you think you should go to the nurse? I'm like, I think I'm good.

I don't take sympathy very well. Like if someone feels bad for me and try to pat me on the back, I'm like, oh no, I'm fine. That's my initial reaction. And I try to play into that here. So I'm kind of thinking we're going to maybe do a couple of things before the test starts.

We have morning announcements and then immediately my teacher, Mrs. Puff is like, all right guys, we're going to get to go on the test. And I'm like, okay, it's showtime. Raise my hand. I'm like, Mrs. Puff. And she's like, Noah, don't interrupt me while I'm talking. That's rude. In that moment, I got really heated. I think my defense mechanism really went off.
