In lwo or lhree years I became quile adepl al signing my own reporl card and giving excuses for being Iale. In lhe follow- ing lwo years I maslered lhe arl of going down lhe school sleps lhree al a lime. Since lhen I have learned a lew olher lhings. I never was much ol a speaker and am lairly bad al wriling las you've probably guessedl bul I am al my worsl when I lry wriling poelry. ll can lrulhlully be said. lhal whenever I lake a crack al poelry, someone usually lakes a crack al me. The peak of my ambilion is lo be able lo pass a subway ad wilhoul marking il up. Following my usual cuslom. I will be a greal success al lhis school. Sincerely, Your new pupil, Joe Texlile.
