I was reasonably popular in primary school. Hung out with I guess you could say the cool kids, though we didn’t really think like that. We just played brandings and kiss and catch, and I probably spent more time pondering the mystery of why I kept getting caught when I KNEW I could run faster than Emma, than I did caring about whether we were cool or not.

But then in high school, people changed. I didn’t relate to the cool kids anymore, talking about sex and AIDS and other things I didn’t understand. And suddenly people were mean. To me. I didn’t like them. And I didn’t like that they were mean to some other kids who I actually found more interesting. More like me.
