No one said dating could nearly kill me. And no one told me I could lose myself and find myself in a single moment. Of course, no one could possibly have known I would be knocked unconscious by a stupid football on my first day, or that my first two months of high school can basically be summed up by: Number of times I publicly puked: 3 Number of times I kissed a senior: 2 Number of times I committed naked burglary: 1 (but that was an accident)
