What were you known for in high school?

I was known for making people laugh. I was also known as the smart kid who never applied himself. Teachers pleaded with me to take it seriously, and I wish I had. I'm also known as the guy who was flashed by a teacher. She did that to another student, and he turned her in. She lost her job. She was a new teacher, and I actually thought she was another student. She was very young. The local news showed up to cover the story.

Nothing really. I was doing a online homeschool program through the local school district, and I didn’t get to do sports until my senior year (Parents wouldn’t let me because of my grades). So barely anyone knew me. Since the program was through the district, I was able to graduate and walk with the kids at the high school. The only sucky part about it was before we walked, everyone was taking pictures with their friends and everything, but I’m just standing there and wandering around.

@Djac17 You should go to the anniversary thing when it comes around. Get in there and meet some folks.

@ChildOfTheWasteland I knew who a bunch of them were, I went to public school through 6th grade, started homeschool in 7th. Still was awkward with me Just standing there alone, when everyone else had been through Jr High and high school together.

@Djac17 I was usually the guy by himself at any event. I've never had friends, and I still don't. I don't approach people to make conversation, and they don't approach me. I know it sucks.
