    i was a combination of geek/loner/gothish person. i grew up in the outback and went to a very small public school with lots of christians and rednecks where it was all about conformity. so yeah. i did not fit in and got tormented and picked on pretty much every single day. i voted geek though, as i guess that's what fit me the best.

    I was some kind of hybred. All my friends were the cool boys, but I was never with any of them so I wasn't a slut. If I wasn't ditching I was on suspension, but I still got really good grades. I was asked to leave one school, and the next should have expelled me, but on paper (I did a lot of extra-curricular activities and was on the state tennis team) I made the school look good.

    I wasn't very pretty, and hated most of the girls at my school. I showed absolutely no respect to some teachers. Me and my close group of guy friends were known for pulling elabourate pranks. I just had way too much attitude... and yet all the girls always wanted to be my friend (I guess it was a challange) and every guy always wanted to be the first one to actually fuck me (also probably just because it would be a challange).

    I grew up in a pretty "nice" area where high school kids drank and might do a bit of weed, but that's about the limits. I guess I was also pseudo-cool because the other kids knew I was doing a bit more than sneaking vodka from my parents house.

    Mmmm basically I was just a drug-fucked bully who barely turned up and refused to sleep with any of the boys yet still managed to do ok academically.

    I picked punk. I was totally invested in my Anarcho-punk points in highschool. I loved turning 18 in highschool and walking in with a huge circle-A tattoo after my birthday. There wasn't a catagory for "angry/hippy lesbians". That was prodominantly my group of friends. I would have picked that one, too.

    I had to pick "Don't Know." As far as I know, I never fit in a category, although loner or nerd would come closest. Freshman and sophomore years I was in a tiny country school where you were either a cheerleader, a wannabe cheerleader, or some kind of outcast. I was no cheerleader, so my friends were either extreme dorks or goth kids, but I didn't particularly identify as either of those. I made good grades, didn't do many drugs, and wore whatever I felt...usually thrift-store stuff.

    Junior and senior years I was at a residential magnet school for extreme nerds. There were only 40 of us in my class, so nobody bothered with labels too much. As small as that school was, I still managed to be a bit of a loner. There were some of those 40 kids that I never, ever talked to. I had very short hair and dressed kind of androgenously (suits, ties.) If other people put me in a category, I didn't know it. I was kind of in my own world, I guess. Still am.

    I was The Stoner.

    Tie dyes, Birkenstocks, the Grateful Dead, cutoff denim shorts, LSD, pot, booze, sex. Turquoise jewelry, metaphysical interests, crystals, Allman Brothers, Santana, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix.

    I was an anchor for our school's closed-circuit news program and was often on the school TV doing news specials. I also joined in on the school's poetry magazine.

    Got A's in Media Studies, English, and Writing, but bombed everything else because my stoner ass was too lazy to keep my eyes open during things like Algebra and Econ. Except the one time I got an A+ on the Biology test that focused on Sexuality and Human Reproduction. So then not only was I a nerd, but a slutty nerd as well.

    I smoked cigarettes in the bathroom and in the parking lot. Yes I hung with the popular crowd and was often at the house parties they threw over the weekend, but I had my nerdy little thing going on. And I also ran with a group of really cool girls. We had each other's backs. No cattiness or anything. I miss them. They were cool.

    The rocker type who was getting good grades in honors and AP classes until she dropped out. Moved on from there, I should add. My home life was driving me crazy.

    I was a stripper. I was kind of a stoner/slightly post-grunge fucker. And too cool for school--literally. I thought prom was fucking dumb so I worked that night instead. I made like $900 or something. Haha!

    I guess I was popular. It's kinda hard not to be when there are only 30 kids in your class. It was a small farm school, and I was on the equestrian team, so I suppose I was cool. I partied, drank and smoked too much, though.

    Had the biggest crush on my lab partner, who was the star of the football team, president of the honors society and way too goody-goody to ever date me.

    Fast forward a couple years later and we're crazy in love.

    Did he ever mention how he perceived you, or felt about you, back then?

    God. This kinda sucks. Ok. So I went to this arts high school and was basically the popular scene/straightedge chick there (YEAH, weirdly at my high school it was cool to be drug/alcohol free lol). Back when, you know, it wasn't all mainstreamed to death with the likes of paramore and falloutbjsdhaskjdhasjdhasjdhask....

    I miss my high school, it was a fun time and was lucky to be in a place a ton of artsy kids, like me.

    Looking back now, its like.. god, I was at the start of all these little 13 year olds grabbing the nearest eyeliner, using it all up on one use, and tormenting their eyes with it.

    I put the loner. I had friends, but few. I was also/still am a geek I guess. I don't really "fit in" with most people, but when I find the ones I do click with, I love them to death and would do anything for them. I went to a private school, so I was the only one who really liked to listen to stuff like Manson, plus I dressed kinda gothy...so I could be called that, too, I suppose.

    I have no freaking clue. I was friends with everyone, from jocks to nerds. I wasn't either of those, though. I didn't play sports, I did get good grades, but my nose was far from stuck in a book, grades just came easily. I wasn't so into fashion, but hair and makeup were big for me. I smoked and drank and I think that's why I fit into all the crowds because I hung out with everyone, but I wasn't part of any of them. Just kind of floating around. I was on too many drugs to care if I was popular in highschool.

    Of course, I started out as a cheerleader as a Freshman, and got kicked off the squad for not being a good 'role model' for my peers (I left campus for lunch which was against the rules for a Freshman), so I guess I could have been popular if I wasn't so rebellious.

    But highschool sucked, I'd never want to go back!

    As you can probably tell, we all turned out horrificly snobbish about our accomplishments. Basicly what happened is when the band started, we lucked out with a very good band director who got us a good coach by the name of Shelly Crouch whe was married to an epic coach named John Crouch. John eventually got hired too and when that happened, we got good, really good...really fast.

    In the first winterguard season the team got promoted at their first show. Then next fall the guard won mostly on flashy effects...you may have noticed the big yellow balls and 10 foot white silks. I remember standing at retreat and when they announced that we won the guard caption, we all just looked at eachother like it was a joke.

    After that we just killed every season flat out. Wanted was massive fun to perform. Red Cape is when we got all technical and serious, but Angel was when we combined technical and serious with a level of emotion.

    Then John and Shelly moved to Arizona, and the team got William Chumley and Casey Michaels stolen from Pomona (Scholastic World) and Signature (Indep. World) and they killed the original vibe. Legacy was always about kicking ass, but doing it with our hearts on our sleeves and by the skin of our teeth. We faught for every single moment of every single show. Now they're just clean and stupid good and look effortless instead of like "Oh my god I'm gonna nail this fucking release and smack the catch so you can hear the crack miles away."

    They don't break rifles anymore when they catch them, it's just a sweet little click of nothingness.

    I would also put loner (and bookworm and artsy nerd, fwiw), though that's not how I voted earlier. I want to pick apart the connections between the strong number of self-identified loners and having the balls to pursue a stigmatized industry that is ultimately about selling yourself as your product.

    LOL well, I was the school slut. I had explored my sexuality with about 15 regular guys there. And then I would have a boyfriend for a while and all the girls hated it that the man their crushing on just wanted me (and only me) to give them a good blow.
