Misconstrued, Misconcieved Misconceptions

I really hate it when people hear that you write poetry and:

- assume you care about things like tone and tempo and such while you're writing... or at all

- want you to write one for them

- assume you go to open mic night to read it in front of people.

I hate my English teacher. He's one of those guys who assumes #1. I don't give a shit about tone, persona, style, etc. I don't think about it when I write and it's not MY writing style if I have to.... which was what the assignment was about.... writing about MY writing style. Did he not want me to USE my writing style while writing about my writing style?

Also, he told me to rewrite my paper (though he told the whole class the same thing) because I did not have a formed introduction and had ... this one I really don't get.... TOO MANY PARAGRAPHS. Let's start with my introduction... One of our options were to start with an interesting story... which I did... though I guess it wasn't interesting to him because he told me it was more of a summary of the paper... but isn't that what an intro is supposed to do? INTRODUCE your topic? My intro basically said "I was jealous 'cause mom could write so that's what got me started." My paper said, "I beat my mom and went on to overcome other obstacles." It was intro. WTF? rar. THEN... let me just ask...  I know there's a minimum of 3 sentences to a paragraph usually... is there a maximum? Aren't you supposed to start a new topic in a new paragraph? How the hell am I supposed to "use less paragraphs" when the topics aren't really related? Damn this guy pisses me off. He needs to explain things better if he wants me to change them.

I may as well rewrite the whole damn thing.... not that THAT wasn't hard enough.  Effing chunkface.

If you couldn't tell, I'm WAY stressed out by school because the classes I'm taking are useless, retarded, "why am I going to use this?" pieces of crap.
