My first coupla years of HS were sort of fun. I went through a brief period of getting lots of attention from girls, oh yeah that was great. It was the 80's and I had long heavy metal hair that they seemed to dig.
But all the pot started getting to me, and by my senior year I was lonely, paranoid, afraid of my own shadow. Painful memories...

I was a geek, but one who writes. I enjoyed high school acedemically, and I stayed out of the bad stuff. I hung out with nice people, and made some nice, normal friends. I wasn't in the IN crowd, but I liked high school. I thought I was the next Yeats...bwahahaha. Right.
I did do a tad of drinking, though...................

I was a science geek, mostly withdrawn, inward, and introverted. Shy you could say. Then I'd get to chemistry lab, make small amounts of chlorine gas, introduce it into the HVAC sysem, and empty the school for the rest of the day. This made me very popular. With the kids. But mainly I wanted the fact of my existence kept a deep, dark secret.

Well, let's see. High school, that was over 2 decades ago.
What was I like? I was sort of a geek, but I used to be into music: rock, punk etc., and was really into radio DX'ing. When I moved from the small rural community was dying in, and moved to the city, I became alive, made friends (mostly worldly ones) and did really well in high school then.
I got picked on a lot, at the first junior high school to the first year of High School.
If any Canucks on here remember Rough Trade's: HIGH SCHOOL CONFIDENTIAL - you damn well, it was NOT like that at all.
Coming into the J-Dubs as a teenage male, oh my goodness....you can imagine the struggles. What a time to become a dub.
I survived, somehow. This past summer I met up with 2 of my former school mates, first time in over 20 years: IT WAS GREAT!!! I had a blast!

I just remembered something funny, grade 10, the first day I had a cut off jean jacket baseball hat and those tennis arm bands on. Yup I thought I was the coolest rocker/stoner, then one month later I was a funker and breakdancing!
Man were the 80's fun or what!

I was a skaterpunk theater/art class nerd girl.
I wore baggy pants, black t-shirts, and silver jewlery. I had crudded up airwalks (infact I still have them) and wore too much eyeliner. I had a wallet chain and a skateboard that I carried more than I rode. (Total poser) I took all the art and lit classes that were available in my po-dunk high school and was on the speech team in the drama catergory and tried out for all the school plays. I hung out in coffee shops because that was the only place to hang out and listened to really god awful garage bands.
In some respects I have changed a lot, in others, not at all.

I am the same as I was back then really. I was JW, so I couldnt do anything like dating,dances, or join anything. My last year I did more because I had a car. Talk about a double life,,,,,, at school I got away from the crap going on at home. I loved school, I did well in all my classes except math, just got by on that subject. I had some really good friends who understood my being JW and we worked around it anyway we could.
I was a clown in class, and always talked and laughed and got in trouble for it all the time. I would instigate things but never get caught....... but I felt bad my friends got in trouble so I would turn myself in too.
I was always so little compared to everyone eles,,,,,, short .. but I never had to physically fight anyone,,,,,,,,, I let my mouth get me out of the trouble I got into with other chicks. It was really hard to look up at some girl and tell her off, but it was either that or get my butt kicked.
