anytime, any place

yea, a few friends at school asked me why i wasn't playing. peaked my interest a bit. i may not play in college, but i do want to play at some point and there are a good amount of teams in and around boston. so its all good.

 

I can play that part very well.

 

Ohhhhh be careful! Lucky likes slapping .....

Here is your beer.... cheers! (and speaking of which, i think i need a beer so i can stay awake for another hour)

 

i was good back then

i was quiet, skinny and a little bit weird. would have hyper episodes regularly. talked to my friends. didnt really bother making friends with most people. didnt study that hard, did ok. didnt really care about boys or how i looked.

in the younger years i was on all the sports teams and shit but i became too lazy in high school, although i still did basketball and netball up to year 12. i cant really say i was a stereotype of anything.. wasnt a bitch, nerd, loser, geek, goth, jock, class clown. didnt take drugs. disliked most of my teachers. my mum thought i was depressed in my last years of school.

hmmm im quite different now. a lot more outgoing id say, open to things i would have been closed to back then. ive done a lot of naughty stuff since ive been at uni

 

Well fine! I didnt want this job anyways!

 

Fortunately shyness is the one early social impairments which can be completely overcome and outgrown

my threads are awesome.

 

I suppose it is mostly Americans that post here since everyone seems to be talking about sports. I find it stupid that school and sport are so much related over there.
I am glad I was not forced to join some school sport team.

Also I think people who brag about how great they are or were in this or that sport are really pathetic little dickheads.
Thankfully we do not have this whole competitive 'athletic' culture over here.

 

I was a reasonably good kid for the first three years. Then i changed schools from my catholic private school to a government public school and started being a real smartass to teachers, smoking cigarettes, marijuana, graffiting and taking pills and being an all round ****. Got expelled a year and a half later, moved to an even worse government school, went even further downhill, taking more drugs and stealing shit, got expelled 6 months after going to that school.

 

i was a loner in gr 9 but by the time of gr 10 i met the 'outcasts' group of hippies, stoners, punks, etc..and i pretty much hung with them..i skipped alot of school didn't pay attention at all and pretty much just went to the classes i liked which wasn't alot...i was more creative than my school appriciated...i didn't start doing drugs til gr 11, and in high school i wasn't a huge druggie/alcoholic, that came afterwards
i got detention alot but that was mainly for skipping and being late, in gr 10 my english teacher told me i intimidated her, i was very opinionated and i 've been told '"too smart for my own good"
i didn't care about high school when i was in it, and i don't really care about it now..i do wish i had more fun while i was there though, gr 9 and 10 where pretty much wasted years
last year in college was the best though

 

Hmm well from my point of view I would just say I was pretty tough on authorative figures. I never believed in giving away respect, that respect was earned, thus I did not call teachers by Mr.? or Ms.? I would call them as they called me, if they used my first name I would return the favor. I was into cars and computers and loved to drag race alot. I drank alot before/during/ and after school. I was known for being able to handle alot of booze and still function. I was introduced to drugs at a very young age due in part that my sister (who did not do drugs) was freinds with alot of drug dealers and thier sisters and they were all 4+ years older than I. So by 12 I was smoking hash out of a pipe, would deliver weed now and then, had 16 year old friends with cars, enjoyed the teachings of older girls thus also launched my status in my own age group.


Teachers mostly hated me and I loved to push thier buttons. I actually have pushed a teacher to the brink that he walked out of class and went home.

I loved pranks and nothing was safe. I could sleep through a video in class and still never get below a B on a pop quiz (een in my sleep the information would some how sink in)

I hated fighting but from earlier fights in my life people avoided fights with me. I stuck up for little guys becuase I thought it was pretty mean. I worked with handicaped kids from 6th grade until I graduated (truthfully some of the most real, kind people you could ever meet)

I guess I was kind of a dick maybe but people always came to me wit thier problems not matter what. I have taken care of a few girls who's BF's left them in a bad way.

I did break a teachers nose with a book but I did not intend to. I was trying to give him back his book after he made a comment toward me, his face just got in the way. I did earn an english credit for hangin around the library.

I played football (right of passage when your over 6 foot I guess)

I had a job, loved it and was making very nice money for a kid my age and maybe even t some adults back then.

Always had nice cars, but outwardly seemed comfortable but inwardly was always shy and avoided poeple in large groups (still dont like crowds and dont know why) LOL

That is the lame ass me....

 

yank you sound alot like my brother

 

Hmm Either that is the best compliment I have ever recieved or you hate your brother, lol

 

in high school
I am usually asleep =D

 

it's a love hate relationship, he can be an ass and get on my nerves but we still hang out and have fun
i'm always smoking him up and getting him booze, and he returns the favor by driving me around

 

yeah i still get people telling me that their first impression of me is shy but its more than i was brought up to be very polite i think coz i mean i dont blush easily or anything and i speak my mind

 

Something's 'naughtiness' is determined by how restrictive a perspective One uses.

Mine must've started extremely broad...... and has continued to expand. *s*

Outstanding progress...

 

I was really quiet for the most part. I hung out with the "so-called popular" group (my best friend was Homecoming queen and we're actually still best friends to this day), the jocks, the cheerleaders, but, I never felt like I truly fit into one group. I was just friendly with everybody.

I was also platinum blonde. Yes. And I wore electric blue contacts. Trying to be someone I wasn't, a mask of sorts.

 

I was the kid responsible for dosing people with acid and mushrooms. Then I got kicked out in 9th grade. That's about it
