What Happened to My Friends


Alec had anger issues the whole school had seen.

  He redid his senior year,

  and later became a sex offender.

Chad talked about murder and cannabilism.

  We all thought he'd become a school shooter,

  but he's just a chef that still lives at home.

Melinda hated herself, and you could really see it,

  so we're all happy that he

  transitioned into Mitch last year.

Atticus had promise (but was a compulsive liar)-

  he failed the first two years of college,

  just to party with friends that don't like him.

Edison was such a nice guy, though be it somewhat dull.

  He's marrying a girl that treats him like shit.

Jamie was relentlessly tormented by

  her father and brother, after her mom died.

  I really hope she's happy now.

Freaks turned burnouts.

It's all so weird.

I used to have an account under the name "The Frozen Arsonist" when I was a teenager and just wanted to start over, but you can check that out if you want to see earlier content
