since there's a thread about people thinking what people were why not tell how you really were.

I was into art and I guess I hung out with the band geeks and brainiacs. Quiet shy typical Asian lol

    Although I played rugby, most of the time I was a total geek, until my final year in which I went completely off the rails.

    football, show choir, wrestling, prom king, "best personality", 1st runner up in Beauty and Beau pageant. I went to a school of 1,000+ students and all knew my name.

    Basically, I'm a real life Uncle Rico. But seriously, I was the coolest kid in school.

    I honestly tried to be nice to everyone. Smile at everyone. I hate the bitchy vibe. I went to school and went to work. Thats about it. Had some fun but was kind of shy...

    Haha I was really shy but loved to sing. I started writing my own songs when I was in highschool. I also took dance lessons and I was crazy in love with my now husband :)

    I was studious but balanced. I frequently earned a slot in the A or AB honor roll. Bad at math but otherwise fine, I thrived in lab or group/partner work. My closest friends looked not at my odd looks but at my kind heart. My grades earned me a spot in our chapter of the National Honor Society, where, again, my big heart helped the community do great things with NHS's support.

    I was the smoker's corner chick. Got in a few fights and hung out with my boyfriend (he's now my husband of 25 years). Skipped classes and got pregnant my senior year, dropped out and had to graduate a half-year late by making up classes.
    Now I have a bachelor's degree, have been a long-term medical worker, then a supervisor, and now a published author.

    Introverted Extrovert, AP student who played sports but didn't hang out w/the jocks and had a very eclectic group of friends, mostly artistic ones (I have no artistic ability at all). Just liked people. One of the rare people who actually had a good experience in HS.

    I was pretty shy and hung out with a few people throughout high school. The most annoying question I got was "Why are you so quiet?" Ah man, If only I could go back today but then again, I'm still not the loudest and talkative person in the world, but I'm not shy anymore!

    I was in choir, performed in school musicals and dance team, performing for the football and basket ball games plus doing competitions with the school dance team. I was also on a private competitive dance team at a dance studio. If there was any free time after that I was usually on the phone with or at a friends house. Oh wait did we have school classes? Was in honors English, history and science but not math hahaha.

    Constantly in fights, didn't let anything go. Played rb in football but eventually quit team so I could 'socialize' more. Stayed in trouble, but made straight A's.

    I was the smart, responsible one. Straight As, school prefect, social but never with the in crowd and the richer/snobbier girls looked down on me but I had the power to get them detention or report them for rule breakage so they mostly had to suck it up. In my later years, I changed schools and definitely enjoyed more, bunked a lot of classes, would sneak out during school times with friends but was still the studious type.

    School was alright, used to play a lot of ball. I remember one day I was playing some b ball at this park outside the school. Group of like 5 dudes were just sitting there mean mugging me and my friends. Ball rebounded off the hoop and almost hit one of them, they were just waiting for a reason. Got into one little fight. When I went home my mom got scared. She sent me to live with my aunt and uncle in Bel Air.
