I've been a goddamn gregley.
At one point I was a rowley but I hated how it felt to walk into a room and people go "oh.. it's anon." so I became a tryhard. I wanted people to think I was cool.
The thing that made me regress into a greg entirely was when I moved to the states and got to experience a border-town school. Mexicans everywhere, rich white kids pretending they're mexicans, stabbings and beatings around every corner.
Tough guys and gang shit. Weed and meth was sold in the cafeteria like it was nothing.
As someone who spent 90% of their schoolings on military bases, this shit unsettled me. I did my rowley fregley shit and got beat up. I tried to smoke weed to be cool, and fit in (at school). Got sent to a criminal program where dudes that fought each other go. Got schizophrenia. Went completely socially catatonic with the masking since then.
There is a spark of who I was here and there, sometimes the mania in the depression shows up and I act a fool again; a ghostly fleeting possession from a man who could have been. Those times are over, all I have are the memories.
