That's kind of a relief. Travis used to throw up a lot. Like, at the drop of a hat.

Ha ha! I used to throw up a lot. My Aunt literally married her husband because he kept his cool after I lost my lunch

I shanked a school bully, that was pretty much it for me.

My bully would attempt to attack me extremely visciously, well beyond a normal school fight. One day he disappeared for good and I asked around, and one teacher in private gave me a truly epic and utterly unprofessional lecture about how it's actually OK to be gay nowadays, there's two sides to every story, and I really should confess to the whole thing between me and him outside of school so they could let him back in. :confused:

I know this isn't realistic for most, but here's my "new school popularity template":

1 Observe and do nothing for some time, till the existing Bully is identified
2 Kick the bully's rear end
3 Do NOT take up any of the Bully's tribute streams
4 Savor the popularity for the rest of the school year as you have liberated an entire class

this will come in handy big time when i start high scool next year. no cap.

I was class president junior and senior years. I was captain of the soccer team junior and senior years, also captain of the baseball team senior year. I was in a few plays, so I was down with all the arty kids. In running for valedictorian, so down with all the smart kids. Smoked weed and threw parties at my house when my parents went away for the weekend, so down with the burnouts and rednecks. Literally just the crossroads of all popularity.... until this massive concussion during a playoff soccer game senior year. And then everything changed, though it took a loooooong time to figure out why.

Didn't do any clubs or sports. I enjoyed French class a lot, as well as English. Language is fascinating to me. Although I don't remember any substance of French, it's a fond memory.

I enjoyed art a lot but because of scheduling conflicts I could never get enough art classes in school, because I was trying too much to be well-rounded. If I could go back to my senior year, I'd either go whole-heartedly into college prep or 100% just take chill classes and have fun, rather than going down the middle.

I think most of us have things we'd do over if given the opportunity, anyway.

i was pretty much a dork-rear end loser for most of my primary schooling. about halfway through high school i switched to a small school for kids with learning disabilities or other problems and found my niche sitting between the super nerds and the druggie kids because i was a big gamer who also smoked weed. that school only had like 40 kids in it though so it was pretty important to be at least courteous to everyone.

I was a nerdy stoner/skater (that didn't skate) that was super mellow and I got along with almost everybody. During the breaks I hung around mostly with the other alternative types (metalheads, goths, etc) or with some close friends of all types. My sister was in the preppy/jock scene so through her I knew and hung out with a lot of those types.

I genuinely got along with just about anybody and looking back I guess I was super popular, even if it didn't feel like it at the time because of my anxiety and insecurity.

It was nice. I miss it.

I went to 3 high schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 elementary schools. I hated all of them for different reasons, but I did adapt a great ability to have conversations. I was bullied, both at home and at school. I was not cool. Now at 37, I am still not cool.

I really hated high school
it was such a drag
every time I walked the halls
all the kids would call me a *@%
I didn't care for physical ed
and I didn't care for history
I wanted to blow up my high school and take my G.E.D.
I was a high school psychopath
I needed therapy
I was a high school psychopath
with an overload of energy
there was a teenage wasteland in my brain
from staying after school
I didn't want to pledge allegiance
because I thought it was so uncool
each and everybody hated me
they thought I was such a jerk

I was the big man on campus. I threw huge parties. Lots of girls. Etc.

Then I got a massive concussion during a soccer game my senior year, and everything changed after.

I had no idea what was going on at the time, but years later learning about concussions from the NFL and all the consequences was eye opening. A great relief actually, as I now understood why. Can't change anything, but knowing why has felt important.
