The crime? Being children in need of education
The sentence: 13 years. No parole.
The punishment: mental torture and subsequent emotional suffering. Physical labour is optional.
Conditions of release: exams
We're not all that different from prisoners. We even have numbers, whether it be your VCE number, IB number, account number. We have uniforms. We probably eat like prisoners, too.
Major differences? We have fun. We have friends. We're here by choice (more or less.)
But sometimes, exams just feel like Hell.
And who can be bothered any more?
But prison never had this:
While many may say that yr 9 at this school is more like prison that any other, I say that it was the best year of my life. It's what you make it. And see major differences above. Sure, it was hard as anything, but that's what made it worth it.
Just a thought.

That's what I thought when I first saw it but I wasn't sure either xD We did West Ridge together right? In Term 4 I think... But the first time I did it on Buller/Stirling it was horrible -_-"
Yes, we did do it in third term...Round Hill the first night (remember Miss GB forgot the outer for the tent so we were squashed four in one?)
