Over here, you are assigned a section during the start of the school year and all the students in this section will be classmates in all their classes for the duration of the school year. During Grade 12, I was thrown in the same section with this peculiar kid who was known for stabbing his bed with a knife at 2 am during Grade 11. It was in a dormitory just outside the school, and he was roommates with three other people. His roommates and the landlady where all scared and called the authorities on him. The cops had to detain him while they called his parents.

Additionally, he talks like he's in a war, refers to himself as a "soldier", likes communism and wishes for it to be accepted by the entire world, reminisces about WW2 like he fought in it, and is paranoid that everyone hates him.

I was stuck with this kid 9 hours a day for five days for one whole school year.
