I had a big chip on my shoulder.
Were there times where, I don't know, you settled into a rhythm?
I honestly reflect on it as like a decade-long grief cycle.
So, you know, it started with a bit of sadness and all that sort of stuff.
And the angry part was definitely that middle section.
And I think I found acceptance in some ways at some point along that road, probably in, you know, between 19 and sort of 20-something.
While I was still very much behaving in a way that I'm not proud of and that was consistent with what I was trying not to be,
I still had a pretty solid understanding that I could confidently say that I wasn't quite like my old man, if that kind of makes sense.
But it wasn't until later on that I really did smack myself in the face with a brickman and just be like, well, fuck, hang on.
you've been spending the last 10 years running from, you know, trying not to be like him, trying to, I guess, be cool, you know, and then just really going,
shit, you know what, all of the things that I'm doing are consistent with what I'm trying not to be.
Like my intent isn't marrying up with my actions and my behaviours.
What the fuck?
Yep, so I leave.
I just got to the point where I was just, you know, I went from intermediate being like...
I was ducks at intermediate and I was quite good at school and all of that sort of stuff.
And then just progressively through third form, fourth form, just downhill, just angry, pissed off, not wanting to do anything.
And I was in fifth form and my teacher in English was teaching us how to write haiku poems.
Yeah, and that's exactly what I said to her.
I just refused to do it.
