I started smoking at twelve, lost my virginity at thirteen and did every kind of drug there was by fourteen. Pretty much any drug you can name, I’ve done it! I wouldn’t say I was bad or malicious, I was just curious. I certainly had my little experiences with drugs. Eventually, you see where that’s headed and you get out.

I hung around with bad crowds. We used to break and enter places. We’d break into the school and destroy a room or something. I used to steal things from stores.

I’d been in High School three years, and I may have just walked in yesterday. I had, like, eight credits. I was in my third year of high school and I didn’t want to be there. I was bored out of my mind and I hated it.

At first we’d wear T-shirts that said Flame on them. At thirteen I was wearing plain T-shirts. Then I used to steal my Mom’s clothing. She had all these crushed velvet shirts with French-cut sleeves. And, like, seersucker bell bottoms. I dreamed of having platforms, but couldn’t find any.

(About old teacher asking for autograph) I mean, what was I supposed to say? He’d failed me. I remember one time this teacher yelled at me so heavily in front of the entire class. He didn’t have any time for me then, and now, all of a sudden, he wants my autograph? They all thought I was going to end up a drug addict, in jail.
