Coming of age. Intellectual awaking. Growing up. David Jacquemaine was as interested in those topics as anything else in his high school. His unchallenging classes and the uninteresting kids in those classes lulled him into a sleep most of the time. Then one teacher, one broken yardstick, and one conversation changed everything.
