Do you know the two words that were used to describe me the most in school?
Lazy and average. Now those are the last words that would describe me.
That’s why it’s fuck school until it changes, I’m not on the fence on this one.
I managed to break out of that poisonous mental loop because I’m incredibly gifted, blessed and aware of my gifts. I’m also not afraid to say fuck everybody.
But what about the kids the school system doesn’t suit? What about the kids who had no one to guide them? What about the kids that weren’t blessed with scalding self-belief?
Do you know how many talented and creative people I know who were broken to nothing because school made them doubt themselves, made them feel stupid, and made us feel lazy and average because of an exam result?

My mission is to change that in whatever way I can. The more exposure my voice gets, the more I’ll spread the message.

I’m for the people that weren’t given a map, the people who have to find their own way. The people they called lazy and average.
