Armchair Anonymous: Haven’t Confessed to Parents

He did assigned reading growing up. It was really difficult. I would push it off to the last second. So that class, which required a lot of assigned reading, I was falling behind. I was teetering. 85 is a B, 84 is a C. Well, that's bullshit. 79 is a C. In South Carolina, where I grew up, it was 85 to 92 was a B. Oh, yeah.

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.

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.
