“There was a period there where I was like, "No, no, no, this is crazy. I don't want to take any more drawing classes and talk about what looks best. I want to study math and psychology and physics and all these nerdy things with computers." That was fun and great, but that didn't work out. At the end of high school, I was like, "Uhh, what's easier? Drawing is easier, I'll do that".” WantLooksEndsSchoolFunClassStudyPsychologyCrazyPeriodsEasierComputerHigh SchoolWork OutMathDrawingPhysicsNerdyHigh School Ending Author:James Pearse Connelly
“I was a gay kid in high school in the late '90s, and I was in theater club. I was never a thespian. I was much more of a lighting guy or a backstage guy. Because I wanted to do something easy for the rest of my life, I thought, "Maybe I'll go and apply to colleges that specialize in theater set design. I'll do that. That's what I want to do". With theater, really, I'd be around the gays.” WantKidsWantedSchoolGuyEasyDesignCollegeGayLateHigh SchoolTheaterClubsLightingThespians Author:James Pearse Connelly
