Q. Were you really popular at school, or a bit of an outsider? How did it affect you growing up?
A. Um, I was pretty difficult. Mostly I was angry & angsty & weird, I felt like I didn’t fit in & that really hurt me so I dressed weird on purpose & was really unpleasant to people. I have no idea how other people at school viewed me, because I was kind of a paradox. I was the weird...
