Chameleon Drawing Gone Wrong

Text on the meme

I started crying in class because I tried to draw a chameleon from memory

What it means

A split image compares a real chameleon perched among leaves with a crude notebook drawing of one. The joke is that the drawing looks dramatically worse than the animal, so the student supposedly cries over the failed attempt. It is used as a reaction to embarrassing artistic failure or unrealistic expectations.
