My parents get divorced. I was in my bedroom reading Stephen King’s “The Stand” when my mom came in and announced this to my sister and I. I kept on reading to display my indifference. I wasn’t too bothered by this event, but it gave me something to talk about at school.

At some point I was invited by Jayne Gurley to attend church at Community of Believers.

Brandon and I become friends.

I meet Kerry Danko.

Begin senior year at CVCA.

I was class chaplain.

Brandon and I got a three day in-school suspension for ditching school one day and going to Cleveland.  It was so worth it. At first the school administration did not want to punish us as we were ordinarily pinnacles of good behavior (or at least I was), but we insisted. It was like getting a vacation and we enjoyed it very much.
