I was in high school and the class was reading Arsenic and Old Lace aloud. I was called on to read and I started blocking really bad. The teacher just kept saying, "Do you know where we are on the page?" Finally I just said, "I'm sorry, but I can't do this." It was humiliating. I just put my head down on the desk and didn't do anything for the rest of class.
