I was a thesbian, hung out in th theatre and art studios alot. Also was part of the school news program. tried so hard to be popular for a long time, then in the middle of HS, i said screw it and i guess you could say 'i found myself'! i guess everyone knew who i was, but i never considered myself to be popular, which, when i look back , was good

Geek/Nerd.

Everyone always turned to me for their computer help...including people I had never seen before :Q



I'd like to know how they were able to find me though. It's not like people carried a picture of me in their wallets and told who to go to when Windows is screwing with 'em.

a bit of everything (un)fortunately. I was in Marching Band, I played 3 sports, the few friends I had were either geeks or jocks, and I was middle of the road intelligence wise... i guess i'm a sort of renaissance man :p

Jock-Nerd Hybrid. Played football, basketball, and ran track. Took all AP classes throughout entire high school career...even my senior year while everyone else was having fun goofing off in study halls. What in the hell was I thinking!?!

That was just about me. I wasn't a "nerd" and I wasn't the most popular person in school. (This is mainly for junior high because I went to a private high school and it was really small with grades K-12 and I was popular there.) I had friends that were popular, nerdy friends.....
