How about being an adult who messes up your life?

I'm wild again
be geld again
a simipering,whimpering child again
bewiched, bothered and bewildered
I'm on...
couldn't sleep. I wouldn't sleep
when love came and told me I shouldn't sleep
bewiched, bothered and bewildered
I'm on...
lost my heart
but what of it
he is cold I agree
he can laugh but I love it
although the love saw me
I'll sing to him
each spring to him
and worship the trousers that cling to him
bewiched, bothered and bewildered
I'm on... 17- and 8

-year-old bright students, who are really high-spirited, have to work hard to achieve the first goal in life, and the results are clearly visible. There are so little troubles and confusions, which is the beginning and exercise of countless troubles and confusions in the future, but at this time it is not so painful just a little itchy.

Let's take a look at the adults: Hector's teaching method is so novel that he encourages students to live for interest, and the married man turns out to be gay; Irwin inspires everyone to talk novel, hit the nail on the head, but lied that he is from Oxford ; Dorothy's brain capacity does not dispel the idea of ​​"History is woman following behind with a bucket"; the principal is a typical example of all tempted by the benefits of further education.

People start to have their own hidden pains no matter they are not middle-aged. They can spread out and bask in the sun and live transparently like children who think they are mature. Looking back at the past 20 years, everyone was smiling brightly at the beginning, and life began to transport everyone into different orbits. Or, at some point, everyone starts screwing up their lives.

So what? This is life, you have to taste every taste before you have an understanding, what is sour and what is sweet, and there is the so-called bittersweet, you need to understand that happiness always lasts longer than pain.
