Why I hated High School
Freshman Year
- 4'11" Freshman with a high pitched girls voice with the nick name "Chicken Little"
- Working in McDonald's drive through "Uh, where's the cute girl that took my order?" No, that would be me, I'm still waiting for the Puberty Fairy.
- Guys in PE gleeking and spitting luggies on me.
- Again PE, being thrown into a trashcan by a couple of jocks
Sophomore Year
- 5'2" Sophomore but picked on more times for being a freshman than when I was a freshman
- I used to wear these aviator glasses and a hoodie- about the same time as the pictures were going around of the Unibomber- and that became my nick name. Though it was a little nicer as that got popularized people picked on me less.
- Having my mom take my friends and I to the Mall, "thanks Mom, where and when did you say you were going to pick us up?" "Oh, sorry Mom, how long were you waiting...." No cell phones at that time.
- No cell phones. "So when did your mom say she was going to pick you up? Did you need a ride? I can ask my mom if she can give you a ride." Thanks, no, I'll be fine I can hear our van now- yea the blue smoke, nope I'm good thanks, she's here"
Junior Year
- Acne. I thought I was cute- looking back at pictures I know why no one talked to me, except for Billy and he doesn't count because he's imaginary, one, and two because his acne was worse than mine- made me feel a tad better.
- People would come up to me "Hey, you were at that party last week.... yeahhhhh mannnn killer party.... " "No, I work at In N Out Burger now and I probably took your order that night." "Oh! Yea! Your the guy with all that ketchup on your shirt, I thought you got shot in a drive by- I mean drive thru shooting! hahaha *snort*" "That was the ketchup you threw up on my shirt - because you drank too much- I'm surprised you remembered, kudos"
- First real dance- homecoming. Got to ask one of the prettiest girls for a dance. She said yes, but put her high heels back on- she was a head taller... sad....
- Sister got to drive me to school, that was when I learned the yellow lights stay yellow the same number of seconds as the first digit of the speed limit- 25 MPH stayed for 2 seconds, 40 MPH stayed for 4 seconds and so on and so forth... it's amazing how you can confidently make it through so many lights with this knowledge.
Senior Year
- My sister drove me to school. I was one of the few 17 year olds without a driver's license. Also, for some we never remembered to turn off the lights and kept draining the battery.
- 3rd year Spanish. My only C's came from Spanish- I needed 3 years of foreign language to get into the University system- it's funny but the lower grade average from my foreign language classes also kept me from having a high enough GPA to even try for the University system... pick your poison.
- 3rd Year Spanish- I've never seen E.T. in English, but I have seen it twice in Spanish- once in 1st year Spanish and the 2nd time in 3rd year Spanish
- Graduating only to go to the local community college to be reunited with all the people who didn't make it into real 4 year universities.
