Welcome to Vancouver College, an establishment,
which consist of all male students. I have came a
long way since I was in elementary school, when

issues such as peer pressure, appearance, the
future, and those of the opposite sex. Vancouver

gain power and respect. The main goal was to put
an end to the rise of communism portrayed by a
dictator who skillfully manipula...
