And your comments....

  1. Wow
    Mr Pollicutt i sincerely apologize..

    I am really sorry
    Reading back through those comments i feel so embarassed and stupid..
    I really dont know what to say because im trying to find some way to explain but really, there is no justification to this
    Those comments were extremely rude, and i really mean it when i say i'd hate to disrespect you or any of my teachers in any way.
    I'm really sorry if that hurt you, but you should know the comments were nothing serious at all, we were kidding around even if it was incredibly ill-mannered.
    Even so, that shouldn't matter because it doesnt change the fact that we disrespected you.
    I feel so ashamed right now, i am really really sorry, Mr Pollicutt...

    Can i also just take this chance to clarify something else...
    Do you remember when you kept Rhianne and I back after class one Monday because you thought we were laughing and whispering behind your back?
    Well i left the classroom close to tears because i was so hurt that you could think something like that of us.
    I can even tell you what i was whispering to Rosa about, i asked her if i had a period stain on my skirt, and i think you understand when i say thats not really the kind of thing i'd ask you or the rest of the class out loud.
    And we were laughing because i was making weird noises and faces in class because i wasn't in a mood to do work.
    I was very hurt you automatically assumed we were talking/laughing about you without demanding an explanation first.

    However, i'm not trying to make myself look good right now or trying to change the subject.
    I'm sincerely sorry for being rude to you and i feel terrible i have to apologize over the internet.
    I really hope you forgive our immaturity
    Im so sorry...

  2. Mr pollicutt i am honestly and sincerely sorry about those comments.

    I feel like an immature brat writing those comments and i cannot believe i disrespected you like that. I feel deeply ashamed and if i could take it back i would. There really are no words to express my apology but this is the best i can do over the internet and i would also like to apologise in person. I would also like to apologise for my inappropriate behaviour towards a teacher.
    It was extremely rude of me and i would also like to clarify that these were not serious comments, we were just joking around. We didn't mean for you to take these personally and we didnt intend to insult you.
    I really hope you dont look at us in a different way and accept our ill-mannered behaviour.
    As lien previously mentioned about the time you kept her and I behind class, afterwards i went home and nearly cried because i was so upset and i am a sensitive person even though i may not seem like it and i am not blaming you either i am just stating a fact.

    Again Mr Pollicutt i am really really really really really really sorry and i will never write anything bad about you or any other teacher again:( I really hope you can forgive us but i will understand if you don't.

  4. Sorry Mr. Pollicutt, it was insensitive and rude of us to make fun of you like that.

    Those comments were written a while ago, and we were just fooling around,(our humor is...a bit foreign to most people) it wasn't supposed to mean anything, but obviously it wasn't right to have spoken out like that in the first place- to a teacher, who we are supposed to respect.

    Anyways, we apologize for hurting your feelings, none of us are actually like that, we must've all been a bit sore that day. (Teenagers and their..hormones.)

    I'm sure this is all insignificant to you, but looking back I feel very embarrassed and quite ashamed, as the rest of us probably are right now.

    We'll hold back all our pride and apologize to you in person as well, if it makes it any better.

    I wish I could change the past, but everything has already happened, so I can only justify myself in the present and hope that the future is alright. :)
