*hugs* The dude doesn't have the right to call himself a teacher. A good teacher (hell, even plenty of mediocre ones!) would never, ever insult a student like that. It's so many levels of wrong I don't even know where to start.

I hope you're feeling better, bebeh. And like Jenniebart said, I hope someday you share your original fic with us! I totally loved that beginning of a novel you wrote for your creative writing class. It was charming and wonderful.
