Maybe is was my friends at the time in middle school. Or maybe it was my girlfriend in the beginning of high school. You know what... It doesn't matter. All I remember is that when I was diagnosed with depression, my friends left, my mom died, and I was supposedly the chosen one. It all happened so fast, I didn't have time to process the things that were going on. All I know is that I'm a depressed teen with the ability to time travel.

Now, I won't go into stereotypes, but I'm marked as a "hood". A Juvenile Delinquent, public disgrace, and the school bully. It's probably not what you were expecting, but back then I was labeled "emo". And I didn't like that, so I beat up a guy once for taunting me about it, and suddenly people started to clear paths for me. Now... what do I look like now compared to the past me? Well, for starters, I cut off all my long black hair and dyed it blond. I stopped wearing all black all the time like a confused teenager, and I got better friends. Just imagine Dallas Winston from The Outsiders but with just a slight build, dark circles under his eyes, and a lip piercing. And a few other things like; A shirt from Hot Topic, and also a scar near his right eye from a skateboarding accident. 

Welp... I would say that was a good introduction to my neat life. See you all in therapy.   ~Phillip V. Curtis
