...I remember a time when we used and abused...
I remember a time when they used and abused us...
I used to deeply hate school when I went there, but I think that, unless it was a time of unbroken abuse, most people will look at it nostalgically later on.
Not really my case. I hated my teen years, everything around me started to collapse in my last year, it was a boring place with stupid teachers, huge percentage of them didn't like me (ok, thats fine) and robbed my grades (not fine at all) and other nonsense that i don't like to remember.
The place basically sucked, it was one of the last series of prefabricated pavillions that were only firstly built for preparing students in the last year before College and then it literally ballooned to accommodate more years of the secondary education and even night students, the limits were geographically barbed wired to feel they were like a single unit, nobody used the basketball court, the heating system usually collapsed first thing in the morning (yeah, that was funny, eight and something and kids were like ghosts during the winter's dawn, trying to find an empty pavillion), there wasn't any bus station nearby, the windows were tiny, the bar was suspicious, the students' association was ridiculous, i remember my first year, everything was really strange, vote A, vote F, and then we were obliged to listen to Bob Marley and No Doubt out loud the full year! damn. I started to listen Maiden there, well, not all bad news.
It was a typical place that everyone knows that is for temporally use but the temporally use lasts more than two decades.
And last but not the least, my high school is... broken, destroyed, pulverized, crushed, crumbled, smashed, swallowed, defeated, disintegrated, collapsed, caput...
it was demolished about ten years ago
and now it is a parking lot.
Kindergarten, on the other hand
