Dear Former Teachers, 1994-1998
Hi it’s me Miranda. Before you light this paper on fire and open a bottle of the best Merlot you own, let me explain.
First and foremost I would like to apologize for being rude. I am sorry for being disrespectful, disruptive, bitchy and manipulative. That was not acceptable and I am surprised you never randomly jumped me in a mall parking lot and beat the ever loving hell out of me.
There is no excuse for my behavior. I had an issue with authority, plain and simple. The more someone told me no, the more I replied with a “fuck off” and then do what I wanted anyway. You were not the only one tortured with my behavior. There were my parents and grandparents, my coaches, any of my family and the list could go on forever.
I could sit here and speculate the how and why until we are blue in the face but what would that accomplish? My apology would come across fake or like I was shifting the blame. I won’t do that.
I just wanted to offer a special apology to you. Since I have grown p and changed a lot, I have realized how vital your role is and how underpaid you are for that role. I made your job far more difficult and I’m sorry.
I hope this reaches you somehow, someway and I hope it is well received, as I am not the same person I was back then.
Thanks
Well Wishes

LOL this is awesome! I especially like the part where you wondered why none of your teachers ever jumped you in a parking lot. They must be awfully tempted at times (not just with you!).
