Title: How were you like in high school?
Post by: Hamster_Hero on October 30, 2015, 05:27:08 PM
So, how were you like in high school?  Were you a loner?  A stoner?  Perhaps a football jock (yeah right, Hmong football jock? Bahahaha)?  Part of a goth group that dislikes everyone including themselves?

I was the smart kid in the class.  Not necessarily a nerd, but more preppy.

The school I went to didn't have many Hmong people at all, only a handful, so I often wonder how it's like going to school with a bunch of Hmong's (probably dramas and headaches), hahahaha.

I would say I'm a floater but mostly hung out with some troublemakers. ....... ditching classes, smoking cigarette & weed in the bathroom and the bleachers, drinking vodka during lunchtime in a plastic water bottles, etc.  I was looking back through the yearbook and didn't realize then that soo many chicks liked me though.  Yeah, your's truly was a bit of a pimp too.   8)  ;D

It's been 20 years ago for me but I was a loner and a nerd.  I was also one of 2 Hmong people.  I think we were the only Hmong there for awhile.

Now looking back, I'm actually glad to have been a loner.  I tend to cherish my alone times these days.  I get more done when I'm alone.  When I'm with people I talk too much, not gossip or things like that, just stuff like technology, my kids, education, world news, etc.

I was a total geek, the whole package actually. Only thing I was missing was the braces :P
Joined all the committees and clubs, helped out at school functions regardless of what it was,
really into school if you didn't catch on yet. School was everything to me then LOL

Always had my head buried in a book reading. I didn't care for my looks then because make-up and fashion was not my thing. Pictures of the past only makes me burst out laughing. Overall, great times
and wonderful people who made me as I am today :) character wise.

I was the shy, npaub nauj, good girl, and ambitious type (big dream/goals in life).

Awkward Freshmen.
Broke out of my shell my Sophomore year.
Ventured out and experienced a few firsts my Junior year.
Slept through my Senior year.

Limited social skills. AP courses. Friends in too many circles and cliques (a few clashes between them from time to time). Lacked self confidence. Definitely a chameleon. Regret not keeping in touch.

Extremely shy. Loner. Always sit in the back of the class. My teacher thought I was a mute. I didn't break out of my shyness until Senior year.  :-\

Typical nerd. Hung out with our small Hmong crowd/club when I could.  I did all the AP and IB classes and competed in academic competitions. Read a bunch because I couldn't socialize much outside of the cultural weekend activities.  Life was simple when you didn't know much. We were barely freshmen then...
