I think it says something about me that I teared up a little when the teacher scolded the class. I'm so sensitive that I couldn't even handle hearing the teacher upset. I empathized with him but also felt like I was being targeted (even though I wasn't), and those two things combined to make me tear up and feel angry at the other students.
