congratulations! question : did you identify ultimately with your character Ugly Girl in high school? cuz she's totally me.
Heh... Actually, I identify with all the characters in Ugly Girl; they're all different aspects of my personality. But yes, Ugly's character is very heavily influneced by my teen years. For instance, the comic in which the popular girl tells Ugly that she told "preppy guy" that she asked Ugly to go to the dance with him as a joke ("so just play along!") actually happened to me in my sophomore year.
