What were you like in High school?

[Donovan]

I was the perpetual new kid, moved every few months so I spent every year with an entirely new identity based on who I happened to fall in with. Perception is reality, I find. I was a smart but hyperactive kid, and didn't grow til eighth grade so I got picked on a lot early, learned to sympathize with the downtrodden kids. Then I shot up a couple feet and that coincided with a period of being very, very angry at the world so I acquired a reputation in more than one place as somebody not to be fucked with, not because I was tough but because there was a good chance I was crazy. There were a couple of highly publicized incidents that got blown up beyond recognition, and I traveled back into places I'd been before. Like I said, perception is reality.

I can't imagine any of the people I went to school with ever remembered me, I was never around long enough.
