I was the same person I am now! A preppy who was pretty quiet. I did play Basketball, Baseball and Football though, but for the most part I was a real quiet person.

Skater Punk. Although I had a lot of friends from both ends of the spectrum due to my brothers and sisters that were older then me.

ugh...here we go...I hate talking about myself...sorry :)

I was the co-validictorian, with a 4.0 GPA, captain of the hockey team and tennis team, honor society member, 2nd chair 1st trumpet, helped organize half time shows sometimes, helped bring the variety show back to our school(also performed a few times)...

Never did anything with like SGA and other clubs/groups...I was the president of the computer club though :)

I usually dressed preppy, or jockey, or alternative-ish..lol.

I think one of the coolest things was that you prob. wouldn't have expected "my type" to be co-validictorian or have a 4.0 GPA, cause I was like the jock/popular type (hate saying that)

I love trying to defeat stereotype's and setting the bar :)

4.0 IronSerif I am impressed. How big was your school. It certainly is easier to become validictorian or salutatorian in a smaller school. I am not saying that your achievements are any less impressive, but that some of us might have more compeition to deal with.

I find it interesting that many of you associate the type of person that you were with how you dressed. This is because as we all know High School is very classish. If you cared about fitting in (or not fitting in) then there was a definate pattern to how you must dress. We place a great importance in how we are percieved by our peers because of personal reasons. What I mean by this is that everyone different reasons to as why they classify themselves into the "castes". I think the reason that how we dress is more important in High School than later on in life is due to the fact that the person is still dependant on others for survival and unsure of what direction life should take.

As for they type of person that I was in High School, I would have to agree with Ioman, pretty much the same.

I found a website that might give us a better idea of our regular forum members. Err Two actually. I will start with the first one.

My Tempermante is both Crafter Artisan and Mastermind Rational. I haven't taken the test yet. I think I tend to lean toward the Crafter Artisan most of the time. I think my being a Gemini qualifies my having two distinct termpermantes.

Here is the other one. I didn't go too throughly into it.

lol I hear ya man, if you go to a lil school of 350 than you can get away with it real easy :)

Uhm...Our graduating class was like ~380-400, and our actualy school population was ~1000 give or take :)

It's funny cause like the first 3 yrs I didn't even think about having a 4.0...then the last year it comes up on ya that you had it for so long you wanna keep it!

My graduating class size was about 650. Total students attending was close to 3000. I got good grades, but my class ranking wasn't anything to :p brag about. :)
