Stupendously Sublime

Exactly what i said in the title is something that i have come to believe in very strongly, life is a TV series and everyone has episodes, assuming that i'm the main protagonist of my life (this fact could still be argued), i have seen many seasons: Modern School Arc Drop Year Arc JUIT arc Post JUIT arc MHROD arc And these arcs were made of episodes, amazing, stupid, gracious, embarrassing, triumphant, destructive and many many more. What I will say here is end of a couple of episodes from the MHROD arc, and these were, lets say, season defining for me.

Am I a leader? Do I deserve to be a leader? What have i done to ...

The activities of educating or instructing; activities that impart knowledge or skill... this is the definition my trusty WordWeb gives of Education. I would like to further add that the current education system aims to impart knowledge as well as skill.
