Here is a copy of the assignment paper which all the students received:
Dear Pupil,
Your leash has been loose for an untold time; however life is not a loose leash. Life is hard; life is horrible, and I will try my hardest to make you feel its hard horribleness. I've created a set of rules, which can be referred to as your assignment for the next year. You must follow these rules, and you must never stop the following of these rules. You will continue to follow these rules until it hurts and you start to truly see the cruelty I, along with everyone else in the world, wants to inflict on you.
Here are your rules:
1. 10 pages per week, per pupil, of writing.
2. Writing must be well thought out observations of life, people, emotions, society, corruption, pain, suffering, beauty, change, rebirth.
3. You must stop having fun.
4. Consider buying more black clothes.
Sincerely,
--- Carols Signature ---

Thank you Carol, I only wish I could return the favor and make you feel my hard horribleness.

Interesting rewording of your assignment Brody. I hope this is not how you truly perceive me.
