My Story Sucked

When people ask for advice, give advice, not sympathy.
Yesterday I volunteered at my mom's work for 8hrs. I scrubbed the exam room floor on my hands and knees for 3hrs and it still doesn't look spotless. The base boards look a lot better and it is cleaner even if it doesn't shine as much as it should after all the scrubbing. I used a toothbrush, a sponge, a magic eraser, towels, a spray bottle and a scrub brush. I also unpacked the order, folded laundry and washed the dishes. Then I looked at yeast under the microscope. I made it home just in time to meet my French tutor for half an hour. I went to bed at 6:45 I was so tired but did get up again at 8:30 because dad brought me home a Tim Horton's hot chocolate.
I started growing a potato I found in the pantry with roots coming off it in a container with water. It hasn't done anything yet.
I just realized, the north pole is in the ocean near Nunavut, Santa lives in Canada! (or maybe Greenland?)
Mom blew up an egg in the microwave today. I told her it would happen. She said it wouldn't if you scramble it. I guess she didn't scramble it. It was scary.
For English I wrote a short story. The exercise was suppose to teach you how to use detail to make your story interesting. The topic title given was "A Day With Rudolph". I wrote two pages then freaked out and had a meltdown because my story sucked. I crumpled up one page and threw it out but since the other page was part of the exercise book, I just left it. It had no real plot, was a stupid topic and had no climax. There was just a small conflict at the end that wasn't really part of the story. It was like a weird dream, all mixed up and unclear. I freaked out because I didn't want mom to read it because it sucked. I just wanted to throw it out. I don't remember exactly what happened when I lost it, just that my story sucked.
 
Later I was wondering (because mom brushed my dog's teeth with malt flavored toothpaste),
What is malt?:
Malt is a grain, usually barley, that has been allowed to sprout; used chiefly in brewing and distilling. During malting, the food reserves of the grain are made available, and the texture and flavor are altered significantly.
