Is going to think I'm such a jerk when she reads this in my paper:

The background behind the structure that modern society knows as âStonehengeâ has remained a mystery for centuries. To some, this monolith of multi-ton stones is a relic left here by extraterrestrial aliens. Yet, to others, the ring of blocks gathered from hundreds of miles away was a ritualistic temple for those of the ancient Druid culture. To a smaller, less informed minority, Stonehenge was built after Strawhenge and Stickhenge were blown down by the Big Bad Wolf, and three Little Piggies were relocated to the projects.

I stole the joke from Eddie Izzard, but shoot me if that wasn't the right time to use it.

The paper I'm writing isn't actually about Stonehenge; it is about perspective, and how modern critics mystify paintings instead of considering them as history. Our teacher gave all of the students in my class a painting to write a "story" about. The assignment is actually hard to explain, but this was the first couple sentences.

Eh, I could kind of consider it as part of my voice as a writer. She knows that I have a sense of humor, and that I like it to show in my writing, and would probably appreciate it. I'll see when I get the paper back I guess.

Better than my English Teacher, she thinks I can do everything perfectly and effortlessly o.O It's weird...

As for your paper, I like it, I wish I could show my personality a bit in my writing, but that just end up in me getting a 0 and her telling me to take it seriously 'but that she loves the paper but by the school's curriculum that is not how we write'.
Ugh, can't wait till whenever I get to get out of High School!
