chase after sex. The school is no longer a phase which builds the intellect and the character, but a boring place, where one should escape from, as soon as possible.
The Graduation exams don`t have the importance of a carefully prepared competition which is waited for quite excitedly, but a farse. The teachers don`t have the authority of some emperrors that lead you to the kingdom of knowledge anymore, but some playboys that stir the erotic dreams of the young students, who think of having fun and teach them lessons of how to tell lies.
