Music teacher sends me to the principal's office for ignoring her, but I'm deaf.

Here's what happened.

So this happened a couple years ago when I was fresh at high school in year seven.

I was in the grade for 11 year olds for the international peeps.

One important thing to note with me is that I'm profoundly deaf in both ears,

and can't hear a single thing without the use of my cochlear implants.

However, I can lip read pretty accurately,

so I'm not completely lost without them.

Another thing to note is that my CI run on batteries, and these need to be replaced around

every two days.

Most of the teachers were pretty understanding about this and would often go out of their way to make sure that I could clearly hear what they were saying,

such as seating me towards the front of the class and standing directly in front of me when addressing the whole class.

Except for one teacher, who was a real jerk about it.

She also happened to be a music teacher.

She'll be known as Miss O.

Also, this is probably the worst combo because music is also my weakest subject, for obvious reasons.

Me and my form, we're a pretentious school and like to call the class that we register and go to lessons with our form

are off to our music lesson and this happens to be a double period.

Yes, we're pretentious and period means lesson.

So that means it's about an hour and 30 minutes long.

Anyway, so we start the lesson in pretty much two minutes after we sat down.
