School's Out By Alice Cooper

The last drop of ink smothered the exams paper and minutes later the invigilator announces we are free to go. It was the best orgasm I've had. It was the end of the dreadful O levels. Everything of positive rushed into my nervous system all racing against each other to reach my thoughts. Freedom is now mine. Now I can spend holidays without the guilt of not doing any homework. Now I can watch those late night movies. Now I can molest my bass. Now I can read the whole series of Richard Sharpe. Now I can hang out with my friends. Now I can organize myself. The thought of "SCHOOL'S OUT!" was still hard to get into my head because it was very unbelievable.

The many things I did enlightened me how life after school was so much more fun. It taught me how school interrupted my education. It also, most importantly taught me how I regretted my time back when I was in school. Sleeping in classes, being a slave to my own addiction, copying my friend's homework, all these hindered my ability to learn. I know my own potential and I could have done very well if not for those negativities. On of the most important things O level thought me was that it showed me how much I could pushed myself. Burning all those midnight oil till there was no oil left, staying awake in class although hearing a lullaby could put me to sleep instantly and also doing those revision papers with a sense of urgency.

I really hated O levels and so I just wanted to get over it and done with. About months before the commencement of O levels, we were playing badminton outside class, playing carom, playing street soccer and basically, making a fool of ourselves in our classroom. In the head of Fuchun students were formulas and definition but mine was a blueprint of the things I needed to do after O levels and all of those things were done and it was very meaningful doing those things.
