<p>As the new school year comes a serious question rises in my head.
When we have test in class the girl in front of me always turns towards me for help. I don’t mind to give her a hint sometime. At least this boosts my ego a little bit. But she gets very irritating. I can’t concentrate on my work and in the end I have less than her.
Last year’s final geography test was the last drop. Before the class to begin she came to me and winked at me very conspiratorially. She got few point over me even though she didn’t know half the world’s capitals.
This year I want to begin on clear ground and to show her and everybody else that the Info Center is closed.</p>
<p>I would love to hear some fresh ideas on this topic.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>P.S. In our society to just say “Hey, you, please do not do this or that, because you disturb me!” or to politely offer your help in learning the capitals is more like showing your weak place. So I need something that I can say with a smile, but to be form enough to put her on her place.</p>
<p>Lol, I know exactly what you mean. I don’t how I’m going to deal with it, but what you can do is try to sit somewhere else, now if they follow you then that’s a diffrent story lol.</p>
<p>I’ve never done this but maybe you can tell the kid “Listen, I don’t really feel comfortable cheating… i’m extremely paranoid and always feel like the teacher is watching” Or some other BS that shows you dont want to get caught lol</p>
<p>I know I agree! But basically just never look anywhere except for your paper and keep it covered up. If she looks back cover your paper with your arm but don’t make eye contact. I have a reputation for being the really smart girl at my high school so people come to me during tests. A LOT. When it’s a serious test it gets annoying. Just do your own thing and concentrate. Say something to her if it becomes a real problem but I get how that can get kind of awkward. Best of luck =D</p>
<p>Thanks guys!
I’ll do my best.
Unfortunately I cannot move somewhere else. You see, we are a small class and everybody asks! Furthermore, I wear glasses and I have fought for my current place in the classroom. Fought with claws and teeth!
Once I told her “F**k off!” and she did not bother me till the rest of the week. Maybe this is the only way to keep the hyena away from my “meat”, but I wish there was another one.
Never mind!
Thanks for your response!
Good luck with your irritants!</p>
<p>Ask the teacher to move you to another seat. Do this IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE CLASS. When the teacher asks you why, you tell him/her why: the person in front of you is an annoying prick.</p>
<p>Start giving them the kind of hints that teachers give that make the kids actually learn; when they ask you questions, give them something vague like 'Well, 2+3 is 5, and 2+1 is 3, so…yeah" instead of “2+2 is 4” (random example), so they ultimately figure it out themselves. Or don’t look up when they first start calling your name/turning around for answers, and if you have to, say “I’m trying to concentrate, sorry”.</p>
<p>@ #9 everary thanks. That sounds well!
@ #8 TRUFFLIEPUFF, I have also thought about a little scene but as I said our society can’t be impressed easily by such random scenes, so I may make a huge one, just for fun, when they get me out of my skin.
@#10 Seahawks506, yes the teachers are oblivious. We are a small school, everybody knows everybody, and they don’t want to have hurt feelings. I hate it!
And no, she’s not “hot”. She’s fluffy like a marshmallow, but doesn’t please the eye. And even if she were hot I wouldn’t go gay for her!
However, speaking of Nicole Scherzinger, or Penelope Cruz - that needs a second thought!
Whatever, thanks a lot! I’ll do my best not to punch her in the face on the first chemistry test, but I can’t promise anything.</p>
