When it snows and gets you all excited for winter and then goes back up to around seventy degrees farenheit the next day. That's wrong, I tell you.

I assign recurring nightmares that mean that even with a full eight hours sleep, you wake up feeling less rested than if you'd only gotten your usual four or five. When you spend the day paranoid because you can't shake the horror that was with you when you woke up... When you know that it was only a dream, and that even though in the dream, you triumphed, you still can't get it out of your head and randomly shudder when the images invade your thoughts again... And when this whole stupid dream puts you in such a mood that even rain, which you really like, is just making it worse, because it should be snowing right now, not raining, and you only got a B on a paper, which is made worse by the fact that you deserved that B, or, more likely, a B- or Eru forbid, a C. When this bad dream and the mood it put you in means that if you don't get that test back today... it's been a week, after all, and the stress that comes with knowing that if you fail this test, your chances of passing Psych this term are so minimal that you're seriously considering withdrawing from the course if you bombed it, but you don't think you did, but the more time goes by, the less confident you are... when this bad mood makes you really want to go back to bed, only you can't because you've still got two classes, a bout of servicing the community, and a really important meeting to go to before you can settle down to do the homework you probably should have done yesterday...
Ugh. I think I just assigned nightmares, bad moods, the lack of snow, getting a grade I probably didn't deserve, stressful exams, and procrastination. Who thinks that I need to get over myself? *raises hand*

I assign to Mordor those who would deprive us of story, who do not understand the need for representation, and who do not understand the satisfaction of a half-formed desire.
There now, there's something for LMP to use!

I assign worrying and stress to Mordor. Especially when you have a plethora of thing to be worried about. For example: you're really ill but still don't have an appointment from the hospital; because of said illness you're missing a lot of work and assignments and compulsory lab sessions not just lectures; which makes you really stressed; then you actually manage to attend a few and realise that you can't do the work anyway; and then start worrying that you'll have to re-take the year. All this worrying makes you stressed and then you get even more worried because you're so stressed! Then you become even more ill because of all the stress! The situation is far to cyclical for my liking so it should be banished to the noisome pits somewhere in Mordor-where it belongs!

I would like to assign my psychology teacher to Mordor. Not all psychology teachers, I'm sure some of them are lovely but mine is not. (This is quite a long rant so you have my permission to skip it!).
Ok first she is such a hypocrite! If anyone comes into her lesson the slightest bit late as in more than 30 seconds she has a major stress about it and yells at them for ages going '"I have no respect for people who cannot be punctual to lessons, they don't deserve my respect" with no consideration as to why this person is late. And when they try to explain why with perfectly reasonable excuses such as another teacher caught them in the corridor and they couldn't get away (seriously in our school if one of a few certain teachers gets you for a chat you have to resign yourself to being at least 5 minutes late!) she says that you should say you have to go or you'll be late for her lesson because of course they will understand. Now that is fair enough but then at the end of the lesson after the pips go she keeps us behind for ages still talking to us. Of course we say sorry but we have to go and she throws a wobbly! She decides that we are obviously not interested in learning anything and we shouldn't bother turning up to the lessons since we don't want to learn. Argh! So we explain that we will be late for assembly and she sulks, literally sulks. Then we have the daily gripe that we are three weeks behind schedule and that is of course our fault because we all turn up late to lessons and muck about through them. So, nothing to do with the fact that she frequently keeps us waiting outside the room for the first ten minutes because she is chatting to someone about what they are planning on doing at university? I thought not. And nothing to do with her going on and on about the school she used to teach at and how they were all stupid lower-class people who couldn't even manage writing let alone GCSE's (not kidding, those are paraphrased words not changed ones) and yet they were better than us because we are middle-class and lazy and think we need do no work to pass, helpfully missing the fact that we are all sitting there writing notes or doing example questions. Oh and of course her constant talking about how wonderful she is and how her sons are all geniuses and she was some kind of queen in South Africa because none of the black people there know how raise children properly (again not kidding, she said that). None of that could possibly have anything to do with our being behind schedule. Hmm, lets see, what else. Oh yeah her inability to control a class. I mean, ok we muck about a bit but we settle down to work as soon as asked, but she doesn't ask, she sulks! I have never known a teacher so bad for that. We don't actually know she wants our attention because there is no difference between her attitude when we come in and are allowed to talk and when she expects us to settle down to work. So, we keep talking and suddenly she bursts out with 'If you want to talk go and have your conversations outside!' or she threatens to send people back to the subject they dropped, though I'm not quite sure why on that one. Of course everyone feels hard done by having not known she was even starting the lesson and mess around in grieved retaliation. And she is such a bad teacher just in general! I don't learn from her, I learn from the textbook, because she doesn't give us the information we need to pass the exams. She goes on and on about the pHD she's doing in 'how to teach teenagers' but I swear if anyone actually came in and observed her she'd fail on the spot! Then she always talks about how her class last year all got A's except the person who had a baby on the day of the exam but even she got a B and we're all thinking so, if we don't all get A's we're all failures? We say this to her and a get 'well, if you don't want to get A's then of course I'll stop teaching you' - that's not what we said! *sigh* that's not even all of it but I think I shoould stop now before I bore you all to death.
