C) High IQ nerd, Trek or Star Wars obsessed, able to breeze through school without trying.

D) Take-charge type, could defend yourself in a fight, and talk your way into getting your way. Few, but important friends, very independent.

Myself, I started out as a B in Junior High, but switched to a combo of C/D in High School. Could not abide A types.

Any one else? I suspect many C types are here...

Chrisisall, workin on a thesis (uh-huh...)




Cross between C and D. Helped that I didn't really give a shit about what others thought of me, and that I started a rebellion in PE one day when I was unfairly punished for something I didn't do. (Instant cool, ya know. Standing up to authority.)
I was a straight-A student, and a band geek,I got away with murder.
My close friends were mostly guys, and in my d&d group. Of course.

Though my soul may set in darkness
It will rise in perfect light.
I have loved the stars too fondly
To be fearful of the night.

Huh. I thought I'd replied to this earlier.

B & C mostly.

Was in the advanced classes & got A's & B's. Had a few friends, but there were folks who went out of their way to make my school life hell. Never thought of killin' 'em though. I just wanted the gorram hell out of there.

Like a few other folks, it'll have to be a glacier in Hell before I'll go to a reunion. Anyone I liked, I've kept in touch with; got no interest in the rest.

Perceived as a D, but really a C. I had no trouble defending myself, which I only had to do once. Apparently, I made an impression. But at heart, I was a total nerd. High GPA and a sci-fi and D&D freak.

Well considering i am in high school now, i wanted to delurk for a change and answer. At this point i'm a sophomore and i haven't changed much since 8th grade. I would say i'm a mix...

I mean i'm definately not the smartest person in my class. I have high IQ but i struggle with my honors classes right now. I'm pretty athletic I.E. waterpolo and swim. And I play the violin. I guess you could describe me as a geek/jock. But what would that make me? A Gock? A Jeek? Hmm.

I'd definately say i was a tomboy. I mean i love video games and i like guy things. And i get obsessed with things very easily. Never anything like Firefly though. *sigh* All started with those darn pokemon! I always had a fairly large amount of friends after my wussy elementary school days. I can take care of myself now but i was definatelly bullied in elementary school. (i'm sad to say...) But i guess i've toughened up now. No way anybody's gonna mess around with me anymore.

So i guess i'll end this increasingly large response and ask you guys what you think i am. A, B, C, D, or none of the above?

I was C, definitely. wasn't obsessed with star trek or star wars though, buffy mostly.
