2000
 

 

      The year 2000, oddly enough, contained what was probably my lowest and my highest point in life so far. (Concerning sociality and self-acceptance, that is.) During the first few months of the year, I was extremely depressed, stopped caring about schoolwork, quit talking to reallife friends, and completely abandoned the internet. All because I thought I was a burden. There's more detail about this in my journal, if you'd want to read on it. Luckily, I realized that I didn't want things to stay this way, so I asked for help. And I got it. Counseling definitely helped. And so did the Celexa. I didn't magically start becoming social, but at least I could start to stop hating myself. I was convinced to play the role of God in a school play, and everyone loved my part in it... that was probably my high point, since I kind of doubt I'd do that again, and I'm still surprised I had the courage to go through with it. Then, through my brother's kindness, I met Marcy. She was nice, pretty, and somehow we hit it off. Looking back, I'm not sure how (since we were into totally different things, and pretty much had opposite personalities), but I guess that sort of thing didn't matter then. We were in love! I went to things like Homecoming, and everything seemed to be looking up for Dave... I also met quite a few new friends during my junior year--Fate Baez, Bill Lower, Dan Garcia, and the great Matt Zorc! Yes, things were nice... but things go in cycles, and eventually the cycle had to change...


Here's an odd little photo shoot that I attended on the fourth of January, in one of those odd photo booths. And I didn't see any bald repairmen that day, whose face looked strikingly familiar...


A confused picture that I scanned for some reason on June 5th. It's not a bad pic, just.. confused..
