I hated High School so much, I did my last year at Colledge.
Wow, what a difference it made! No more principals chasing you around and telling you what you can and can't do with your free time. No more shitty ass uniforms. No more condenscneding teachers telling you how little you know. No more forced discipline. No more detentions. No more time enforcement. No more gangs rebelling against the clandestine establishment.
I appreciate that some kids probably need some of the above, but being in a colledge environment where everyone treats you as an adult raised my motivation to actually study instead of fool around to see how much stuff you can get away with. In the end I get better results than my High School peers.
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil
