I almost failed Algebra Honors 2 because I had the delusion that if I studied hard I would be on everyone's par, but alas that was not the case, and I ended up getting heavily bullied by my peers and my teacher for just failing to fill the stereotype. <br /><br />I have always leaned more towards creativity, though, but I still feel that I failed as an "Asian" to achieve things others could do...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-522814650086132445.post-84054344121500442322012-10-15T22:54:48.971-04:002012-10-15T22:54:48.971-04:00Never been good at math or particularly liked it. ...Never been good at math or particularly liked it.
