What became of the weird kid in your school?

Here I am.

I was definitely the weird kid in my high school. My favorite subject was math. My least favorite were art and gym. I read incessantly. I was obnoxious to many teachers and nearly all students.

I was skinny. One eye wandered so much it would sometimes be all white.

I had no friends. I was suicidal.

I found a bigger and better school – NYU, with 10,000 undergrads.
