What were you in High School?Follow

#27 Jul 11 2005 at 9:10 AM Rating: Decent
I was the quiet one that always had a sketchbook and was drawing something.. in hindsight I see that I was using it as something to hide behind so I wouldn't have to interact with nearly everyone I went to highschool with since I didn't particularly care for them..

even today if I'm going someplace I'm not particularly comfy with the sketchbook is in tow... old habits die hard I guess.. but I get some good sketches when I'm intentionally ignoring the world so it's not all bad..

what few people I considered friends in highschool I still talk to today.. However I do recall when my mom called and told me she got a letter of invitation to my 10 year reunion.. After my hysterical laughter ended all she said was...

"so that means you're not going..."

I start my senior year this August. (fun...)

The past three years, I've been a band geek, brainiac, slacker, Emo-type, basically anything I feel like being.
I am friends with people from every "label" except for the bigheaded jock-types who think they are better than everyone.

I have been to prom (last year) and I'll go again if I get another date. ^^

I was whatever everyone else wanted me to be, much like everyone else was.

I'm hard to label because I was so many things through those 4 years.

Freshman/Sophomore year I was a metal head skater kid. I was the kid with the jean jacket with an Iron Maiden patch on it. The jacket was covered in buttons and my grandfather's army medals.

The middle of Sophomore year was a change to hard core skater kid. I was at just about every hard core show there was in the area with about 5-10 people I could pack into my station wagon.

Junior year saw a big change. I suppose that music had the most impression in my life as it basically determined my appearance. Junior year is when I discovered "alternative music". Back then it was Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure, The Pixies, The Psychedelic Furs, Husker Du,, Bauhaus, etc.

I still skated, but I adopted the Robert Smith (of The Cure) hair and a penchant for wearing all black. This continued on through the end of my senior year.

It was hard to label what group I belonged to though. I hung out with people from every one of the typical high school groups. A few of the "nerds", the "preppies", the "jocks", the "metalheads", and the "weirdos/mods/goths/punkers".

I dated a cheerleader (it's funny to even type that now a days) and went to my prom with a girl that graduated a year before me. I walked in the door with her and everyone was like, "Who the hell is that hot chick? She doesn't go here!"

I've been told I am very intelligent but somewhere in high school I lost the will to apply myself. I just didn't care. I passed everything (with the exception of Biology which I went to summer school for) with B's and C's. The majority of my after school time was spent skateboarding.

It was fun. Wish I could do it again. The 'real world" sucks ***.

#34REDACTED, Posted: Jul 11 2005 at 9:59 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I was a ball player/surfer. When I wasn't training on the beach I was enjoying ******** all the tourists that were looking to ***** a local on their vacation. School?...lol I ignored most of my teachers and simply read while they were babysitting the morons. Graduated with a 3.5 and honors. Although I thoroughly enjoyed marine biology (a 2hr honors class that included frequent trips to the beach). There were 3500 kids in our school and along with the staff they all loved us basketball players so we pretty much came and went as we pleased (my jun/sen record combined was 57-7) All in all other than basketball and a small handful of classes high school was boring.

I guess I was a skater/snowboarder chick.

Too old for that racket now.

I was, as now, rather inconsequential. I didn't acknowledge or care about most people or things in high school, and most didn't care for me.

For those of you who saw Napoleon Dynamite, I was the little kid that got choked for his lunch money and had his bicycle grabbed. I looked almost exactly like that. Unfortunately I didn't have Pedro and his cousins watching my back.

Well, ok, to be honest there was a bit of consequence to my tenure in high school. After my brother and I left they brought in guards and metal detectors.

I'm not sure how I was perceived, frankly. I had friends in all groups but didn't really hang with any of them. I heard most of the gossip, often from different perspectives, but rarely passed it along (so people kept talking, because they knew I wouldn't).

My email address was disseminated on a list due to a recent reunion, which I didn't attend. I'm pretty surprised at how many people I've heard from since then, and pretty amused at how badly they all talk about each other.

Some things just don't change. Smiley: laugh

Wow well still being in highschool its kinda weird to explain right now, I'm going into my senior year and hope to make the best of it. But right now in highschool I'm the cool kid who can make you laugh, be cool with the teachers, go out and actually DO something like hang out in town(alot of losers my age in school stay at home all the time and most don't even have a license or a car) I party and have dated or know all the pretty girls, I'm damn good looking to. It's a small school and I started going there last year so its easy to fit in. So if I had to sum it all up in one word of what I am in highschool (to other people, not myself) "cool".

It's kinda funny cause in jr. high i was a loser...

I was the principal's kid and always getting in trouble.

Then I went to Seminary when I graduated and got kicked out my 2nd year. Then I joined the army and became a airborne medic. HOOAH!! Then I went to ranger school now I'm a medic for the Ranger's. Rangers lead the way!

Hmmm I'm not even sure I can answer this. You see I was bounced from one school to another. I skipped my junior year because I had to many credits. I ended up finishing my high school career in a tiny (and when I say tiny I mean tiny) school in Cherokee Tx. There was no prom because there were only 7 kids in the senior class, that was includeing me. Other than that I spent my first year(freshmen) and a half in a vo tech, than went to a regular high school, got kicked out, than went to a catholic high school got kicked out even faster, than spent three years traveling cross country and ended up finshing high school on a whim down in Texas.

So basicly school not really my thing but I do tend to do well in it and was offered a bevy of grants and scholarships that I never even looked at. I guess I would of been called the adventerous book type?

What happened?

Graduated in 1993. I was a bit of a crowd blender. Went to a small school though, so I suppose I was either viewed as the coolest nerd or the geekiest jock. There were crowds, but they weren't as structured as they would have been at a larger school.

I didn't spend a whole lot of time in school. I think I drank more in high school than I have 12 years following. I was a class clown type (hi-jacking teachers desks, waterballons, making fun of pregnant girls getting asked by non-pregnant girls about birth control, ect).
