Mitzvahs: High School
Years
School was hard for me, for lots of reasons. One was I
couldn’t read until, like, ninth grade. Also I was a foster kid
for most of high school, and when my mom went nuts, I had
to live with my grandma. That all sucked.
I got popular in high school, but before that, I wasn’t so
popular. Kids would tease me all the time in elementary and
middle school. ͳey’d say I got nies on me and I smell like
onions.
The flies thing came from the moles on my face. I got one
under my eye, I had one on my chin, and so on. ͳat was
kind of mean.
ͳe onions thing was because my mom used to make
eggs in the morning with onions in them. Every damn
morning, I had to eat eggs and onions. ͳat would just
make you stink. The whole house would stink.
