You know how your teacher asks you for a valid reason why you were absent? And by "valid", I mean like fever, muscle aches, dysmenorrhea, and other various types of sickness (and headache doesn't count anymore for some teachers!).
But what if you tell them, "Sorry ma'am, I was down in the dumps yesterday, so I didn't feellike coming to school." Would they understand? Would they tell you, "Oh, I see. Are you sure you're okay now? Why don't you go home today and rest?"
No! They'd say, "What? Just because of that!? You should have come to school! You've wasted blah blah blah..."
It's just so unfair. They'd only consider physical sickness as a valid reason for being absent. But being emotionally sick won't make them feel sorry for you. Don't they realize that even if you DO come to school while at that state, you would not be able to concentrate in your classes? And worse, they'd scold you for "not paying attention" and make you remain after class for detention..
*SIGH*.
