Old school poll - literally

[amandasw]

ok, there are probably way too many possible options, but I tried to boil it down to some basic, stereotypical ones. I'm mostly curious how you see yourself looking back (maybe not how you saw it at the time). There will be a follow-up poll.

I need a "cool smart kids" option. Cause we were totally cool, I swear. But there was definitely a difference between us and the "cool" kids, and the "smart-smart" kids.

[jennlin]

Maybe I'll choose average?

I was what I'd consider "popular" but my (private) school was SO small. If I were in public school, I would be probably a step below average in popularity. I am was kind of eccentric and definitely marched to the beat of my own drummer.

yeah, I forgot this. we definitely had this going on at my HS, more than probably the stereotypical popular kids. dang. I should have made this an option.

nerd/orchestra/mock trial/varsity tennis? I also swam for a season, and played soccer for a bit.

haha, total jinx with spunbutterfly, except I wasn't on student council or court for any dances. I wasn't really a goody two-shoes, but I was never out drinking/partying. I'm also not friends with anyone from high school anymore, but I also don't live in the same state/town either.

i hung out with popular kids and i was one of them, but i also was in choir.

[kwpnjumper55]

I was varsity soccer, gymnastics, and waterpolo so by default I hung out with the popular kids but I was def the ugly duckling of the group

I was very happy in high school and I think I knew that I was a nerd, but looking back I know I definitely was a nerd, lol. I was in the science program and band. The 'cools kids' at my school were actually in the science program so I was casual friends with them, but the girls that I'm still friends with were in band.
