Lying about absences
Have you ever lied about your absences?
It was my last day of class with my teacher. Although we still have a week on classes left and he will definitely show up to class but there won’t be any one on one meetings. He urged everyone to come to validate our grades before the final project in 2 weeks.
I had some health complications during the weekend and couldn’t finish the work he assigned. I could be honest and explain to him but I have been behind and I am basically missing the deadline too. I also had to be somewhere else 1 hour into the class. Which meant that I would have to be the first person to see him and get out asap. I did think about going but couldn’t stand the look on his face when I showed him my work. The unsatisfactory look and if I rush right after, that would just make him even angrier. I chose to book a fake appointment at the radiologist, so the teacher knows that it’s serious. Plus, it was something that my doctor recommended me to go but I am not gonna go because I am all better now but I want my teacher to think I am seriously ill so he won’t think I am a liar. But I am a liar. I feel like I am a really bad person and such a pussy when things get tough. I need to work on it. But I can’t believe I am able to do all that and not just finish my work for once. Am I set up for failure for life?
