Well I didn't get bullied last year. I think it is prolly cause I got along with most people and "cliques" in the school and because of my size and angry looking demeanor(lolz), I didn't get picked on. But people probably will start trying now that I'm out.
Heh. I was very quiet, VERY shy, very intelligent, and very geeky.
Still am, in fact. I've gotten a bit better on the shyness though.
But that, combined with the fact that I moved to a small town just before starting high school and thus knew no one, made me a nice target for people.
Though people treating me like shit for petty reasons like that didn't start in high school ermm

I've lived here all my life, I knew some people before I even went to the school.
Yeah, I was bullied mercilessly in Elementary and Middle cause I was pretty fat, but never really got picked on once I got into High School.

I actually used to be pretty outgoing when I was a kid. But when I moved from elementary school to middle school, suddenly no one cared about anything but what kind of clothes you were wearing and fashion magazines and shallow crap like that, and I cared about Star Wars, the X-Files, games, and reading obsessively. So I suddenly found myself with like...two friends, and became very withdrawn.
And it's been nearly 12 years and I'm still that way. I've been working on trying to get my shyness under control for the past four years, and I can handle being around people much better than I could before, which is good. Still not really comfortable around large groups, but I don't feel like I'm going to panic anymore.
And I've just always been quiet. The other day at work I yelled at some kids who were being obnoxious and my boss was shocked, because apparently it's the first time he's heard me raise my voice at someone like that. And he's known me two years and we all hang out outside of work and he's a close friend of mine.
I've always scored in the 99th percentile among the entire nation in standardized tests ๐ and I love geeky stuff.

I'm not as shy as I used to be. I can talk to pretty much anyone, but I don't really like being in big groups like parties and crap. Just not my thing.
Oh I'm loud as hell now. I've gotten in trouble in class for talking loud without realising it about things I shouldn't be saying.
I feel stupid for asking this but...What is 99th percentile? ๐
I still love the geeky stuff, I'm so geeky I plan on getting the Superman S Shield tattooed on my chest, and I'm serious. ๐

I just simply don't care for people anymore! ๐
99th percentile basically means that 99% of the people who take the same tests do worse than you do. Meaning I score in the top 1% in the nation. It's not possible to get any higher.
I plan on getting a tattoo of the symbol of Yevon from Final Fantasy X on the inside of my left wrist...
And I've just started reading this book which I have been told is very good but very depressing. I'm worried I'm going to find too many parallels to myself in it ermm

Ohhhhh. Yeah my current standardized test scores are from the FCAT, which are only in Florida.
I can't remember exactly what that looks like. But mine is geekier. 131
Skimmed over the plot summary, looks interesting.
