He is cursed with parents from well beyond the lunatic fringe and a senile granny. His dad is a fervent anti-communist who is paranoid that the family domestic worker is running a shebeen from her room at the back of the family home.

I'm awake.

FIRST SEMESTER:

I'd been feeling bad.

My heart beats like a bongo drum.

Dad tries to beat neighbor

dog to death with insecticide.

Mother do not think it is a good idea.

Maybe it's not so

bad to go to boarding school.

I had hoped,

that we would fit.

But it feels like,

the circus has come to town.

He is a real little cricket star

and has received a scholarship.

And he sings like an angel.

Is not that right, honey?

- Choirmaster.

- I like choirboys.

Look here!

That's fine, what?

My new home. It smells like

foot odor and floor polish.

Calm down!

I'll never fit.

I am after all not the only one.

There are many blacks here.

Quiet, please.

Good morning, boys and your parents.

I am president ...

- Rector. Nicknames "Glock".

- My name is mr. Glockenspheel.

- It is not something to laugh at.

- I love you so much!

Lie never be anything.

Even the Queen must

damn once a day.

Goodbye, darling!

I will miss you.

Tomorrow it begins.

Perhaps I die during the night,

and get rid of it.

Turn off the light!

Mother?

What have we here? It looks like

one silkworms with eating disorder.

It looks like a potato,

a small spud!

Everybody has a nickname.

My is Spud. My dick is small,

and my nuts are not dropped.

If I have to survive here,

I have become friends with the other.

Especially with Robert Black - "Rambo",

dormitory self-proclaimed king.

He gangs in every sentence-

- and demands to be

respected and honored.

I have become friends with Rambos

gang, for example, Charlie Hooper ...

... "The mad dog". His hobby

is destruction and death.

Or should I be sports star

as Simon Brown - "Simon Brown".

Or I can get my hands on a lot

prohibited girlie-

- as Al Greenstein - "barrel".

He is a sexgalning,

which I think is a good thing.

Or should I beat

Sidney Sibeko-Scott - "Cool".

Thanks for Henry Barker

Vern Blackadder - "Rain Man".

Otherwise, they bullied me.

My new home is like a war zone.

I'd been an uncomfortable feeling

that soon it's my turn.

- All calls us "The crazy eight".

- What's going on here?!

Who started it?

- What's your name?

- John Milton.

- John Milton, sir!

- John Milton, sir.

U d with language.

I really do not know.

As you will ...

From now on, all

your privileges revoked.

Next time I'm not so indulgent.

Go with him to the doctor.

It was not your fault.

It was not good to be seen with

Gekko, the school's most stupid guy.

It's a madhouse.

There is always someone who is

after you or mock you.

Do not you think Milton?

This better be serious.

Thank you, Milton.

DIE NOT HERE:

IT SHOULD I DO IN HOLIDAY

Check them right there!

I do not recall,

to have invited you, Spud.

He could not tear it off for so

he had tweezers and magnifying glass.

- Even if he had a map.

- Balls feel lonely.

It is not fair.

Even Gekko has got hair on.

I wonder when I can

begin to tear it off?

- I wonder how suicide feels?

- This is my seven tenders:

- Mr. Wilson, our teacher.

- 1 I must obey the authorities.

- "rib."

- 2 You must not behave indecently.

Rambo told that a lion bed

or with each other.

- 6 I can not play darts.

- There is no dart boards.

7th Consider not even

To do this ...

You must not jump into the water at night.

where things are.

I become terrified when

I felt a lump in my throat,

and was about to start crying.

- PJ Luthuli, our teacher.

- Do not run here.

This is the first time I've been

orders from a black man.

- I'm lost.

- This road.

Dad would have reconsidered,

the wallet was still there.

Good God.

Oh horror, oh horror!

The heart can not understand it ...

you are quite dumb ...

Let the trumpets speak!

These vocal messengers-

- Of blood and death!

With me, study the literature.

Not the anemic nonsense-

- A self-absorbed literary gay.

Example 1:

Henry James.

Example 2:

Virginia Woolf and Agatha Christie.

Frustrated and sex-mad lesbians

with underarm hair.

Not get me wrong, boys.

I have nothing against lesbians.

I would personally

give them a swing.

Mr. Edly - "Head". He is as

mad as my family, maybe more.

Either way, I get to

teach you smelly suri cat

- How to become men.

You will learn about women and sex.

If I do it well, you become the

kind of men that you envy-

- And the kind of men

that women can not resist.

Literature is my favorite.

Just Head teaches me to score girls

as mrs. Wilson, rib wife.

since Eve came from Adam's rib.

I got almost goosebumps.

I was about to pee in my pants!

- Yes, Robert?

- You lost your pencil.

Thursday is movie night. Today,

She plays a sexy prostitute.

After school, I would drive around and

look for prostitutes.

You can watch the movie later.

President F. W. de Klerk

, an epoch-making speech.

Among other things, increased ban

Father says that the ANC's communists.

I'm terrified of them.

to release mr. Mandela.

I wonder if

Mandela was a Spud?

There goes the country!

Pike, the school bully.

P. J. Luthuli is my new idol.

I suddenly bad

guilty about being white.

My quest for sporting success

do not go so well.

Your defense game is just as

through the hole like a whore panties.

In the worst players,

I have been unfortunate enough to train.

I have a greater chance of being

pregnant than being cricketers.

It's time for lunch,

so get with you.

Rain Man and Spud,

rode my bed.

Spud, do you want all at school

must think you're a sissy?

It did not expect to.

And therefore I with a mission.

It becomes dangerous.

It gets crazy.

We can be kicked out of school.

We may even die.

Who is on a prohibited

completely mad dip?

I will not.

But Gekko,

there must be no witnesses.

One for all, all for one.

- Spud?

- No witnesses.

Spud!

Wait!

We did it!

Guys! Where's Cool?

Guys ...

Good grief! We get kicked out.

Shut up! We will not be thrown out.

He said that Fede was stuck because

he would visit the Holy Spirit.

It's a miracle!

I was on my way home.

Get into the car. Your father is gone
