Last week a guy had a pot of boiling water thrown on him by his cell mate, another guy was scalped (yep), and someone decided to swallow 15 razorblades and 6 batteries. I've heard some pretty gut-wrenching noises through those office walls. I feel like I'm going insane.

I cant believe I've been here for almost a year of my life. At least I have some crazy stories to tell. I need to get out of here before it's too late.
