Kevin Li observes the stupidity of the modern world.

Public school lunch, also known as prison food, is a mystery of the universe. US school lunches were intended to provide students with an option for lunch that didn't require them to bring food from home. At the same time, they were supposed to be healthy and nutritious, fulfilling the "food pyramid" requirements. It is worth noting that these were also cheap and some students got lunch for free as their households couldn't afford food, the goal of this was to make school lunch accessible for all. Lunch, Nutrition, and Accessibility. These were the factors considered to create the perfect school lunch. But the US government accidently forgot to consider another factor, Underfunding. Thus, the Prison lunch was created. Using their ultra super powers, Preservatives, Frozen food, and the Lunch Lady, the Public lunch system has dedicated their lives to serving "food" and poisoning kids.  When schools must serve healthy food that fit the food pyram...

Over the summer, I got a job teaching English to underprivileged children in rural China through a program called Chinaway. At first I thought I was going to be teaching high schoolers in Dujiangyan (A famous beautiful city with the worlds first dam), little did I know I got hard scammed by the program and I got put teaching primary school kids in Ya'an, a not-as-beautiful-as-Dujiangyan-but-a-lot-rainier city.  At first I thought I would be teaching at a local elementary school, but instead it was at a local academy of art and talent. I also found out that all my students were going to voluntary, which I assumed was good. If they came voluntarily, it means they would be willing to learn right? Apparently I was wrong, for voluntary also means "My parents saw this as an opportunity to learn and forced me to come even though my normal school already ended so I will be petty and annoying". 1st day of teaching: I got a fair amount of students, around 16-20 depen...

Highschool bathrooms. (Please note this is for boys bathroom only as I have never had a good experience walking into the girls bathroom) Highschool bathrooms are the things of nightmares. The very thought of them disgusts me and most likely you as well unless you are some type of humanoid fly. How any human could find these deathtraps utilities appealing is beyond me, and I feel especially sorry for the janitors who have to clean them every day. I too would go bald and have gray hair if I had to deal with the, ahem, creativity of high schoolers every day. Let me start by talking about the situation of bathrooms while I was at central. The first floor bathroom was actually decent, it only smelled like socks after a day of running (Which was really good compared to shall we say, the 3rd floor bathroom which I will get to later). It was clean... ish, depends on your definition of clean, but since the toilets weren't covered in human excretion, it might as well be the cleane...
