Primary School: 3rd best student in my year.

Secondary School: Distinctly average at an all-boys Grammar.
Lost my love for learning, and was more focused on climbing
the fence to the adjacent Catholic school (Catholic school girls...)
and getting blowjobs at the promenade

College: One of the better students in the class

Uni: Somewhat average again. Discovered my love for Mary Jane
and inter-racial relationships.

The class arsehole that perv'd the fuck out of everything and was always making up stupid noises and names, teachers hated me, I'd destroy their lessons, then get top grades without really trying. I bumped into an old teacher a few years ago and he told me, I was often the topic of conversation in the staff room and many couldn't wait to see the back of me. In maths, for the final 2 years, I did fuckall and I mean fuckall, pen never touched paper, teachers were told to leave me to my own devices because I was gonna get the only A* in art the school had for years. I got a A* in art and B in maths, then fucked art and design off my first year in college.

This perfectly sums up my time at school except i wouldn't say i ever got top grades. Got decent enough GCSEs and then exactly what i needed at A level to go to uni without really putting any effort in

Std kid, no real issues.
Nice guy to pretty much everyone.
Didn`t really have a dickish bone in my body.
Loads of friends.
Did well at school.
Good at sport.
Got older, drunker and higher.

Best memory was playing 1st team Hockey for my high school at the age of 13.
I even stood a chance of making it to the Olympics. back in '92
Oh and the 1st time taking mushrooms.

Worst memory was traveling across country to meet some chick I fell in love with on mirc.
She soooo lied to me.
Not pretty to say the least.
And to be honest I didn`t care for her personality at the time.

I was one of the uncool BMX guys, but I got all the females.

Got bulled for being a bit chinese when I was really small, but I didn't realise until my mum told me after seeing my clothes constantly ripped up and then questioning me about the things the other kids would say to me at school. I thought they were my good buddies :(

at the start of secondary school I was the fat loser kid in many ways (ie, i was fat, and a loser), but at the same time managed to avoid getting bullied by getting on with everyone in my form, which was the badman form.

Towards the end of secondary school, I pretty much bunked every day and smoked weed with my mates. Barely got enough GCSEs to do A-Levels. Kinda got my arse into gear for A-Levels, then went to uni and pretty much bunked every day and smoked weed with my mates, still got that 2:1 though. Brap.

at middle school i was bullied for being clever/nerdy. less so in upper as it was an all boys school and there were less tnucs cos you had to take tests etc to get in. 6th form all the shit passed and i just kinda got on with it.

Babyfaced smartarse b2b lazy girl-chasing skater/stoner/geek b2b love-all-the-people-hippy... actually, I haven't changed too much in the last 11 years. :oops:

Got on fine with most people, but I never had the confidence to be one of the "cool" kids... mainly because I felt awkward about looking young and being a bit of a geek, but looking back I was friends with pretty much everyone and rarely got any trouble. I never really got into fights because I was the littl'n in my group... was never a threat to other guys unless I was chasing the same girls as them... and if anyone did try to start, my mates would usually be ridiculously quick to get my back since it was obvious I'd get a fucking pasting if it came to proper physicality.

The only major run in I had was when some douche tried to cut my (BEAUTIFUL) hair at a party in 6th Form - luckily he didn't get a big enough snip to force me to cut it, but a mutual friend of ours broke his nose and kicked him out into the street within about 2 minutes... it was fucking amazing, tbh.

Teachers used to hate me for zoning out and not seeming interested until I handed in anything that mattered and they realised they had to give me a decent grade. My Economics A Level teacher once gave me an A Grade report without a single positive comment on it. Love learning, hate school.

:lol: :lol: :lol: Was waiting for that to show up somewhere!

School days were fairly vanilla. Never got in trouble, interesting stuff always happened to other people, made to study stupendously hard, got very good grades. Part of the geek squad, but everyone pretty much got on with everyone. There weren't really any popularity tiers or bullies. Teachers all loved our year coz we kinda grew up with them and ours was the first year many of them had taught in the school. Oh, I threw the best parties every year. And hated sports. Was well known for my fairly short fuse. I've calmed down a lot now.

A-levels was a bit shit, didn't have a single schoolmate who went to the same college. Very different people, but most were friendly. It was exceedingly boring. Got threatened once with one of them flick knife thingies. Asked to take a look at it and casually mentioned that I had a few mates who really loved playing with their knives too. If I meet said people again in the future, I will destroy their lives. Eventually started drinking sessions with schoolmates, realised very quickly that all of them couldn't handle their drink. It got a bit boring being fairly sober in a room full of people going garblegruggleIloveyoumangrrggllebelerraphhh after just 2 cans of special brew. Only highlight would be that a guitar would always magically appear and someone would attempt to play Smells Like Teen Spirit. Badly.

Uni was mostly boring, ended up having to stay with my uncle for 2 years as I'd left the accomodation application too late. Plus it was free. So missed out on all the hall shenanigans. Really hated my uncle though. Finally moved into a flat with 2 girls in my third year. That was not bad, but a fair amount of drama, especially after the year ended and the bills came. Continued my path to adult geekdom by getting to know even more geeks. Drank a lot more. Didn't know what to do with my life after the bachelor's degree so went and did a PhD. Had a lot more fun as I made some really good mates. Became even geekier. Drank even more. Probably got fitter than I was at school.

Meh.

I went school with the worst principal in the world, a very sweet teacher, and good friends. While trying to put up with my parents' and principal's cruelty, i started to unwittingly unleash telekinetic powers, destroying a television and making a salamander fly onto the principal. With enough practice, i started to learn to control my telekinetic powers and soon i used them on my principal so i could drive her away from the school.

got locked in the chokey once, that was grim.

Secondary school was very interesting for me, my older brothers where ALWAYS getting into trouble, suspended etc. so every teacher already has a preconception of what I would be like, but I was fairly chilled when it came to it.

Lots of teachers did hate me though because I was always questioning authority, coming out with smart explainations when they challenged me. I got that classic 'do you want to teach this class' from my IT teacher once, and taught it for the rest of the lesson, worked through the lesson plan, set homework etc. He left the school shortly after...

Used to start rap battles in the hallways, organised mass dance offs etc, school was one big joke to me, managed to get out with fairly decent GCSE's though so can't complain.

I was never really popular or unpopular, had lots of friends though. Being liked or not didn't concern me, I just did what I wanted and if anyone agreed or disagreed that was cool.

Easier times :)

pretty well behaved at first, but a particularly egregious level of violence at home made me emotional and pretty easy to wind up so i got bullied a ton. intelligent and effortlessly good at work, so bullied for that too, i stopped trying and my behaviour went down the shitter, i imagined myself to be rebelling against the blandly authoritarian and incompetent school establishment etc etc etc... i used to sit around chilling with john keats/nietzsche books and people would be like ewww books (that WAS hilariously wankerish tho) around this time would have been when i got into the libertines and the smiths and radiohead and all the "bands"... got the best (not that fantastic) GCSEs in school but forfeited my prize because i wrote all joke/sarcastic answers for one of my exams and got a penalty from the board, got As at A level although i was pretty much a loner and a hermit for the entirety of 6th form, spent most of my time on the internet... everything changed in first year of uni and i loved it, drank an absolute fuckton and looking back people probably didn't like me as much as i thought they did, second year i got ill so yeah whatever.

A little shit until grade 10. Then i was pretty nice to my teachers. Everyone knows me, whether they think I'm cool or not. Certain people think I'm a pussy, and some think I'm a drug-lord :lol:. I don't really chase girls to much (too much effort). I make every laugh when i saw something, and i ace any test if i give a sliver of a fuck. Good times.

Middle of the road type of fella. Got the piss taken out of me in the early years of high school for being skinny and having a high pitched voice. But after a few years got myself a good group of mates and got along with a lot of people. I was a pretty nice guy, messed about a bit but was never a dick to the teachers. My grades improved a lot over time until my last A level year when I became depressed and fucked everything up, left with one month to go and didn't finish my exams. Got A,A,B in my AS levels and I think I got D,E,U overall.
Was an all boys grammar, and when girls joined in 6th form I didn't have a clue how to act around them so I pretty much never talked to any of them, was fine outside of school though :?
