Within 4 days of excitedly telling my girlfriend of three years that I had been accepted into a teacher’s education program, I was a sad, lonely, single man. Apparently, being with a teacher isn’t exactly what she envisioned for a long term partner. Nowadays, I get it: she wanted someone who would bring in 6 or even 7 figures so that she wouldn’t have to work. But at the time, I was devastated. From being dumped in April until the middle of the summer, all I seemed to do was drink whiskey and smoke pot. Not the best coping skills at the time, but I was young and dumb! In hindsight, getting dumped was the absolute best thing that could have happened. Waiting for me at teachers college were horny girls everywhere. The stories that follow recall what was by far the most sucsexsful year of my life (yes, I know how to successfully spell ‘successful’).
