Last night I dreamed I was back in secondary school taking an English test, until it took a sharp turn into existential weirdness. I recreated the question as accurately as I could. I suspect it's asking for the meaning of life, but please, no smart-ass answers.

I attended St. Mary's College in Trinidad and hated every minute of it. Crumbling facilities, Catholic indoctrination, non-Catholic students used as unpaid groundskeepers, a culture of universal mutual hostility, and a teaching staff composed almost entirely of incompetents and burnouts. Sadly, it's still one of the better schools in the country.
