1. substitute teachers piss me off

Jason Nguyen is pissed.

Pissed that the foster system treated him like discarded scraps.

Pissed that he's never been more alone.

Pissed that he manages to screw up every good thing that happens to him.

Pissed that he wants to be better, but it's seemingly impossible.

Jason Nguyen easily blocks the world out.

After a messy fall-out, Jason's ready to ignore the universe, keep his head down, and get through the rest of his senior year without a hitch.

That is, until one overly-confident Lucas Garcia speedwalks into his life and shows him that the world might not be complete and utter shit.

That maybe, Jason doesn't have to be so pissed.

That maybe, there are brighter places.
