What kind of person were you in school?

I had a similar experience as you. I chose a college preperation public school. Everyone was insanely intelligent even the troublemakers, who were probably some of the smartest. I had friends who were jocks, drama and A.V. geeks, and foreign kids. We all got good grades and enjoyed our time in school. During my elementary and junior high experience I was not popular because I was quirky, smart, and I wasn't trying to be like a charicature of a stereotype from t.v. or movies. But in highschool I had more friends than I ever thought was possible. And even better was the fact that the traditionally "popular" people were the outcasts. You could not be a one note or one sided personality type of person. Girls who were snotty and mean even though they were cute almost never had dates unless they were from other schools. One girl who made my life difficult when we were younger came to Central because she thought she was going to be popular there because she wouldn't have the competition that exhisted at our old schools, but she was still a b*tch so she never had any friends. She made it on the J.V. cheerleading squad junior year and her own team mates wouldn't even hang out with her. There were football players on the chess team, and latin club members on the football team. A lot of times if you weren't in a club then you didn't have a life.

Yeah, that's funny.

Just shows you that a b1tch in sheep's clothing is still b1tch. And that school is whatever we make of it. Even outcasts can be popular too. Unfortunately, what we see in TV is sometime in real life.

I loved literature and art as well. My junior and senior year were great because I spent the first two or three periods in the art room. I also read several books a week. My brain was really a sponge back then.

Yeah I have always stuck with my asian peoples. I am korean and black and I have a lot of white and asian friends, some black and hispanic. People always think I am hawaiin or something.

yeah, I bet you are.

You are a slacker. You are too cool to try too hard. I had that same kind of thing going on a lot. I have always been amitious, but I know how to keep a straight face. Maybe you will end up doing something awesome down the line.

I also enjoyed all of the fun times I had with my friends in highscool. I didn't have any fun before highschool, but once I got there I discovered how great it can be to have a good time. There were sad moments and it is the little things that change.

I was really blessed to have gone to the highschool I attended. After going to elementray and junior high with the same mean people I went to a school that had almost no cliques. There were cheerleaders taking latin, and Jocks in french club, there were nerds on the football team and everyone was cool regardless of race. There were a lot of hipsters, and being a hipster at the school I went to meant doing whatever made you you. Even the teachers were cool.

So why were you a bully? And did you ever figure out a different way to deal with people than pushing them around?
