This was one of the former students whom I would refer to as one of the “bright and shiny” people I often taught. So many of my students were so nice, so talented, intelligent, diligent, and so full of potential that they shined before my eyes. Of course for every single one of the shiny pupils, a child of diametrically opposed attributes also existed.

This work is presently unfinished, as am I.
