The ugly truth


"I am from the Damghar area in Buner. There was no school in our area so I decided to start a school. At first we had only 28 children but with time the number rose to 90.

That was four years ago. One day, the Taleban arrived in my village. They threatened to kill me if I didn't close it down. I informed the other villagers that it was not possible for me to continue to run the school. That's how it ended.

 I feel very sorry, because the kids were so bright."

Kind of makes me question the value of those degrees I keep totting. Let's re-cap. I, and a very large number of people are paying like 20K a head to be here. I barley work, the work I take seriously is nothing to be proud of, and the half assed stuff I slop together at the last minute is always met with praise. This school kisses your ass for handing anything in on time, and they'll fall over each other to stroke the credit out of your cock until you're sleepy and concede. But I digress...

My best, well... the closet thing I have to a male best friend is a drug dealer. I watch him literally do tricks that would make wall street cream and soil themselves. These kids will drop mommy and daddies left over cash on bags and bags of grass. The least they then could do in return is to show to class every once in a while... but do they even do that? Nope. I love over hearing people failing out of classes because they were either too stoned or stupid. In a school where the most you have to do is crank together 3rd grade level essays, with the same amount of research work.

Fuck it. You know what... I'm so under impressed with Columbia College Chicago (the CCC) that my final essays will read something like this.

"Hello. I am is here tootalk 2 you today about biology. Biology is a very interesting subjectz of all the subjectz to be studying here for you today. I am in like with how biologziesz makes me think about the human body, because of course, haha. I am human, I hope...."

Yeah I can already see that one coming back with A on it... or like one of those little check plus signs they do. Yeah that'd be nice. Most likely though it'd come with an * on it saying "Please see me after class-- So I can go down on you, A check-plus."

Yeah Fuck you too-
