Excellence Award in the 'Dream Big 2013' competition

School is like a boring place, where students stare into space.
School is like having to clean my room, which always fills me with doom.
School is like watching my sister's netball game, so painful and lame.
School is like watching Dora the Explorer, because no TV show is poorer.
School is like eating a brussell sprout, so disgusting I feel like spitting it out.
School is like getting dental work done, I don't find it very fun.
School is like doing my homework, which drives me berserk.
Although school drives me berserk, Dad says it is better than going to work!
