Much like JOSSISAGOD, I too was a SW fanatic. Still am. I have a closeted love of anything sci-fi and even my friends make fun of me for it. High school... fat, funny girl; choir and theatre, newspaper, shy at first, became increasingly more outgoing. Good grades. Golf in ninth grade, but that's it. The usual.

Goodnight, and have a pleasant tomorrow.

I'm kind of a combo of C/D, with a splash of something else.

Super smart, graduated 2 in class of 406 without really trying. Got bored applying to college so I ended up at a state school, oddly enough with an essay all about this perfect appearing girl who was actually an alcoholic crackwhore. Liked star wars, but wouldn't say obsessed. X-files was my obsession. I was involved in some clubs and played softball for the city league, but my friends and I mostly sequestered ourselves in the music/theatre department and voluntarily avoided interacting with anyone else. Worked a lot, played a lot of violin in the city youth symphony and at school, developmed my obsession with travel.

Graduated and the next morning I was on a flight to AK to work for the summer. Been back to visit for a total of less than 6 months in the 4 years since I left.

Can't wait for the 10 or 15 year reunion. My friend's mom is a total gossipy bitch (I almost hope I run into her in the next few days so I can have words). I can't wait to prove her wrong and shatter her illusions about the world. And laugh at certain people.

Vindictive? Me? Nah . . .

Prolly D…

Tried to bridge all the cliques… was mostly referred to as weird and funny. Had spurts of popularity. Played football and wrestled… got in a couple of fights but made friends with both later. My obsession was x-men. Was in a club called DECA where I was able to travel to competitions across the country which opned my eyes.

Got mostly A/B+s until senior year where I skipped school a lot cause I thought I was cool.
Wasn’t worth it. I missed some scholarships. And knowing is half the battle.

Wha?!?... *sniff sniff* OH.... IM ON FIRE!!!

At the end of Junior High, I was a C, which led to also being a B. Then I somehow added D to the mix.

Yep, right there with you on the locker thing. Also headbutted the wall and desk on occassion. The desk thing was kind of funny because I did it when frustrated and then carried on like nothing happened and everyone else was looking around for the source of the bang.

Definitely started out as:
C) High IQ nerd, Trek or Star Wars obsessed, able to breeze through school without trying.

But then I realised I didn't need to try, got very bored, developed a deep hatred of all type A people (mostly out of fear, I admit... frequently picked on). So, yeah, by age 13...
B) Loner, 'possibly' unliked 'by some' and ostracized- with thoughts of blowing the school up (Not that I let people know about it!).

umm, i always seemed to be quite popular, even though i hate using that term, because it makes people think of bubble gum cheerleaders and stuff.

it was kind of odd, because i've always been a nerd at heart. hardcore about x-men, video games, star wars, movies, and so on. i even played magic: the gathering.

also, i was editor-in-chief of the school paper.

Quite a variety of types in here. Who knew we weren't all nerds in high school?

Me, I was more of a geek than a nerd. I was a B average student. (Never really got the hang of that whole homework thing, even in college. :) I took orchestra all through Jr. High/ High School, and I was pretty much the wierd artsy guy in school. I found out early on that I could get attention from doodling in class, so I'd draw portraits of people and the like.

I was never all that outgoing back then (still not, come to think of it,) but I knew enough people in the various cliques that I didn't get picked on too much.

Most of what I remember is being absolutely obsessed with a girl in my grade and being too bashful and awkward to ask her out until the last week of my senior year. (And go figure she'd land a boyfriend two days before I poured my heart out to her :)
