I was a stoner/nerd/bookworm :eek: My grades were very high, and I was pretty much in my own clique. I had friends in both groups. High school is far from a favorite period of my youth...Quote:

I started out in the popular, preppie group and morphed into the "intellectual, but not super brilliant" group of 5-6 girls who hung out in Harvard Square and were semi-stoners (i.e., we had good grades, but liked to party). There were no female jocks in the late sixties, early seventies. Then I moved to Florida. They were still wearing Villager dresses, carrying their Aingier purses. I was considered seriously radical. I refused to go to school, so I finished my last 2 years at a very small private school. I had friends, good ones, but it was never the same as when I lived in here.
OMG, I still have high school nightmares.
I was in the "smart but weird girl" group. I had very few friends until I joined the theater. Then I had a *few* more. UGH!
Thanks, Veronica. Back at ya.
so how do we find out what our "reputation" is?
And I like the quick reply box, but can we make it so that you can just type in the box, without clicking anything in any of the other posts? And can we include emoticons in the quick reply box?
:)
Where are y'all seeing this reputation thing? I want to make mine "trashy".... :D
This is a little too much like work :o "you may get a survey call so did you like my post? Huh? Huh? I hope you really like it, is there anything I could say in this post so that you would rate my reputation with a green dot? Cause I really hope you rate me with a green dot, I'd be really sad with a grey dot or worse a red (from the admin) so I really hope that you give me a green dot and ...."Quote:

Frick it all! BIKE ORGY!!!!!
Let's all ride to a great chocolate factory (www.theochocolate.com) and a great brewery (http://www.redhook.com/AgeCheck.aspx?p=36) while wearing our utilikilts (http://www.utilikilts.com/)
HS sucked, now it's time to have the life you always wanted! :D
I don't know what I was in high school, me? I knew the popular kids and we would talk in classes but we weren't friends. I was a newspaper editor, voted best female youth bowler in the state and in all the honor societies.
I didn't go to my 10 year this year. I don't talk to anyone from high school unless I run into them at the store. Whatever high school was I am happy to leave it back in the 90's!
The green/grey dots have been there all along, and they just indicate whether the person is online...
I still don't see where reputation is enabled here.
I might have been there, but now it's gone. We can set aside the old high school demons....says the girl who dyed her hair to match her outfit. :o
Exactly...Quote:

I thinking moving in HS and living in 3 different states has given me a different perspective than if I had just stayed in MA my whole life. Although, I have to say that I always felt different from most of the people I worked with in AZ; there definitely was a cultural thing that made me feel different. In the end, I ended up becoming friends mostly with others who had migrated from the northeast and were in the same stage of life. Then I decided that I wanted my kids to be brought up in an environment like the one I grew up in. So, I guess I eventually did turn into my mother!
Yeah, well that worked with one kid and worked not so well with the other.
