If Green Mountain's main objective was to teach me, it failed miserably. And thank God. See - therels practically nothing worse than being taught to. Maybe it's necessary. but it's one of those necessities I endure with my eyes screwed shut and my molars wrapped around a bullet A like getting a shot in the old tookis or having the dry heaves. I hate it. So on those rare occassions when being taught to was unavoidable, I endured. Barely. I caricatured my enemies through irregular French verbs, punched upside-down words into my shiny silver TI-35 during SOI-ICAI-L TOAQ' and penned sexy bikinied stick women in the margins of Revolutionary War dates. But those were exceptions. Because usually Green Mountain let me teach myself - a wise choice, considering what an expert I am on April Lidinsky. No- body taught me Hamlet 4 they let me embrace it on my owng by hanging backwards off the Publications Room couch and accost- ing friends with Take you me for a sponge, my lord? Nobody taught me to appreciate frog guts - I fell in love with them on my owng by blowing up the lacy lungs and jump-starting the heart of a freshly-pithed beauty. Someone special introduced me to Sa- linger's Fat Lady, but it was I who surgically Siamese-twinned her onto my soul. And though the elements of tragicomedy were dit- toed off for me, I assimilated them on my own - when Missy crashed into the lightpole. See - I'm not trying to steal Green Moun- tain's thunder. l'm ecstatic high school didn't turn out like a Josten's promo film A because now I don't owe Green Mountain anything. This school let me give myself the credit - and maybe the blame - for educating April. And I can live with that.
