I'm
a
toThis
is
the
skin
of
the
onion
developing.
And
by
the
beginning
of
high
school,
the
15
mature
onion
has
formed.
With
time,
its
skin
grows
thicker.
Some
onions
even
realize
that
they
are
onions,
but
are
hesitant
to
peel
16
for
fear
of
losing
their
safety.
Occasionally
I'll
catch
myself
onionizing,
especially
if
something
really
bothers
me.
In
my
freshman
year
of
high
17
school,
I
was
scared
that
I
wouldn't
make
any
friends
so
I
convinced
myself
that
I
was
the
loner
type.
For
months
I
18
refused
to
meet
anybody
because
I
had
already
decided
that
we
wouldn't
get
along.
It
felt
awful
to
finally
confront
my
fear.
But
19
I
didn't
avoid
doing
it.
I
knew
it
was
going
to
leave
a
bruise
on
me,
and
that
was
fine
because
it
was
20
better
than
covering
up
my
problem.
And
once
I
opened
up,
I
had
an
easier
time
meeting
people
than
I
would
have
ever
21
imagined.
That's
the
way
tomatoes
are.
We
never
try
to
hide
who
we
are
or
how
we
,
where
one
learns
to
question
22
the
status
quo,
seems
like
it
would
be
the
perfect
place
for
a
tomato.
Yet
I
also
recognize
that
the
coming
time
will
23
be
a
challenge.
I
will
be
confronting
new
ideas,
new
situations,
and
new
fears,
and
will
have
to
assimilate
these
experiences
without
changing
24
the
fabric
of
my
mind.
I
will
have
to
keep
my
vision
of
the
world
fresh
and
open,
and
not
succumb
to
the
25
hardening
of
established
ideas,
or
onionizing,
that
I
see
occurring
around
me
all
the
time.
In
the
end,
it
is
possible
that
tomatoes
26
and
onions
do
have
something
in
common:
a
comfort
in
the
usual
way
of
doing
things,
a
resistance
towards
change.
These
next
four
27
years
will
be
a
shock
for
m
