highschool
One of the best parts of university is…
No more ‘uniformity’
Revisiting highschool
A chance to reinvent yourself
The ultimate sacrilege

Getting old sucks: University means becoming an old fart
Now I walk uphill both ways

Talking about you. And after last week, it’ll never happen again. It’s hard to believe that there are only 10 weeks of high school left.
