Slightly Pissed Right Now. Just SLIGHTLY. -.-

So anyways, a bit of background info. Chinese school is pretty much a joke. Meaning, we have really loose rules for test-taking: you can't have your book out, you can't be discussing things loudly, and you can't communicate with people at different "table groups" at all. But among your own table people, it's fair game. Sure, the teacher says not to do it, but she really doesn't care. (And yes, some of you are probably thinking, 'OMG, Erica is cheating!' I guess if you put it in a technical sense, then yeah. Yeah, I'm cheating.)

So last week, we had a quiz on vocab and stuff, and this one girl at my table didn't know most of the crap. Heck, she only got like, 3 problems out of two whole pages. So Josephine (one of my besties! =D) and I decided to be nice and let her pretty much copy our whole test. She got an A, maybe even a 100%.

Now today, we had another quiz. Josephine and I were way too busy with crap at regular school to study, but the girl we helped last week studied. We asked her for help before this quiz, she said okay. On like, the fourth problem, Josephine and I ask her for help. What does she do? She glares at us, and COVERS HER PAPER. It wasn't even subtle. She moves her arm until it's right along the edge of her paper, and slams her hand on the answers. I mean, seriously? It's not like we can see the paper from here anyways, we were just asking. We f*cking gave you all the answers to last week's test too, and you won't help us this week???

And even better? Right before we turn in the quiz/test, she OPENS HER BOOK and copies a phrase that she didn't get. No one, and I mean NO ONE, not even if we're desperate and totally going to fail (like Josephine and me today) has ever done that before. None of us hav ever stooped that low. And come on, she was only missing one stupid phrase. Our hypothesis? She's sick of always having us get better grades than her. Because, seriously, we DO get better grades; I'm not bragging or anything, it's a fact. Plus, if she's the type of person to do this, we're thinking she really would mind bringing us down a notch.

And more unbelievable-ness? What does she do after the test? She says, "Guys, cheating is bad." Uhm. Yeah. Sure, Ms. I-Copied-All-Your-Answers-Last-Week-And-Opened-The-Book-During-The-Test-Today. Whatever you say. And then she acts all innocent and like she hasn't done anything wrong or retarded at all. AND she makes fun of us for not studying. Like, what the hell?

So I'm totally pissed right now. We helped you fill in the whole test last week, when we were sitting across the freaking table from you, and you won't help us with ANYTHING this week, when we're pretty much right next to you. It's so retarded. I mean, if you didn't need our help, then sure, whatever, we don't expect you to help us if you didn't need our help. Even if you said you didn't want to help us before the test, then fine. But no, you tell us that you'll help, then you cover your answers when we ask for it. -.-

Josephine and I have decided to try and study like hell for the next quiz (half-and-half, so we can help each other), so if the girl asks us for help, we can oh-so-subtly glare at her, cover our papers, and slam our hands over our answers.
