 * Chapter Packets >:(**

Those late nights reading the chapter that are around twenty pages at least and then finishing the chapter packet afterwards it's like stabbing your brain to a bloody pulp. A pile of chapter packets that are in my room cause me to fear for my own safety. The true or false questions can make a person lose their sanity. The identification section can cause a person to lose all hope for a normal life. The matching people, places and events can cause a person to start hallucinating people as chapter packets. “So many chapter packets make them go away.” And Mr. Geib with his big grin on his face when he assigns the AmEx students a chapter packet, “this packet will come due on…” Those forbidden words are frightful to hear every Tuesdays and Thursdays knowing that the students have to read a chapter that contains a million pages of reading. I lost all hope on Humanity after reading the gilded age chapter. As I’m writing this I can imagine Mr. Geib saying, “You need the chapter packets to survive that fateful morning of May 6, the day the College Board steals your soul.”
