C.D. Library

A place where people go to relax and be bored the fuck out of there minds. I mean seriously, there is nothing to do here except to walk around and find low lifes on the computers in the corner watching some freaky indian porno or something. And talking about DVDs, this place has the worst selection of dvds, even worse than your dead grandpa's collection, so it's a pretty chill palce as you can see.

the library

a school library run by a librarian commonly known as Miss V, Villilardo or Villilardo guttardo retardo. she is in charge of the library that sadly has no books, apart from toad rage - the autobiography of a toad mum and an amazingly cool poem book. popular library activities include the jumping game, eating peoples rubbers and complaining at the obvious lack of books. there is an amazing set of library rules and it is up to the older occupants of the library to set an example to the year sevens (a bad example).
