High School Quiz Meme
Here's a quiz about the High School years, you might find mildly interesting.

1991 to 1995
What were your three favorite bands (performers)?
Red Hot Chili Peppers, REM, Smashing Pumpkins
What was your favorite outfit?
i don't know about favorite, but i had this awesome mustardy rayon skirt from Ann Taylor that i wore with a long sweater and clogs. It was fantastic.

Freshman and sophomore year it was long and straight with long bangs, beginning of junior year it was long and jet black. Senior year it was blonde again and shoulder length.
Who were your best friends?
Francine, Holly, Larissa, April

Cheerleading, tennis & theatre.
Where did you work?
i worked at an awful pizza restaurant for a one month in my junior year, but that was it.
Did you take the bus?
Yes, but we lived far from the bus stop, so my dad had to drop me off. Often we'd time it wrong, and he'd have to chase after the bus, cut in front of it and drop me a couple of stops down the line. The bus driver hated us.
Who did you have a crush on?
A senior who's initials were D. M.!
Did you fight with your parents?
Yes, we had awful fights. Especially me and my mom. i thought that they were too strict and never let me go anywhere or do anything. Of course, now i think i'll be even more strict with my own kids.

i was in love with Johnny Depp before it was cool to be. i'm talking stalker type love.
Did you smoke cigarettes?
Not until i got to college.
Did you lug all of your books around in your backpack all day because you were too nervous to find your locker?
No. Why would anybody do that?
Did you have a ‘clique’?
Not really. i had trouble fitting into cliques, so i tried to be friendly with all of them, like the theatre clique, the goth clique, the football clique, the hippie clique. My closest friends were geeks though.
Did you have “The Max” like Zach, Kelly, and Slater?
Does McDonald's count?
Admit it, were you popular?
i didn't think so, not even after i got into theatre and started going out with boys.
Who did you want to be just like?
Tonya Harding
(lol, kidding)
What did you want to be when you grew up?
i wanted to be a psychotherapist.
Where did you think youÂ’d be at the age you are now?
27 sounded like old age to me back then. i had no concept of the future.
i found this at Amy's (who's got a great new blog design, btw.)

I never knew I was popular until the 5th high school reunion. I highly recommend these because reunions are fun and cosmicpayback is a bitch!

"What year was it?
1991 to 1995"
So you graduated ONLY 14 years after I did. Whipper-snapper.

And ten years after me...
I too went through a period of wanting to be a psycho-therapist. How interesting. (And then, I found out about all the science I would have to take.)

Nobody else is taking the quiz. Are we suppose to take the quiz? I'll take the quiz.
What year was it?
1985-89
What were your three favorite bands (performers)?
Iron Maiden, The Scorpions, Metallica
What was your favorite outfit?
Boys don't have "outfits." My favorite article of clothing was my bomber jacket, until I got my letter jacket. Then it became my favorite. I still have both, though they don't fit as well now.
What was up with your hair?
Short. Sophomore year it might have been three four or five inches long. (I thought I looked like a hippy.) Parted from the left, except sophomore year when I got bold and tried a down-the-middle part. Junior and senior years? Think Gunny Highway.
Who were your best friends?
Nate, Trevor, Scott, and Kevin (who went to a neighborhing HS) until he went off to Ball State my senior year.
What did you do after school?
Football, wrestling, lifting in the off season, homework.
Where did you work?
I poured concrete floors for commercial buildings one summer, and spent another summer cutting sheets of rubber into strips for use in the RV industry.
Did you take the bus?
No, I walked or rode my bike (it was maybe a mile) until I got a car. After the car broke down, Iwas back to walking and riding.
Who did you have a crush on?
Oh, God -- there were
so many . . . Marie and De*****, to name two.
Did you fight with your parents?
No, not really.
Who did you have a CELEBRITY crush on?
Cindy Crawford, of course.
Did you smoke cigarettes?
Nope.
Did you lug all of your books around in your backpack all day because you were too nervous to find your locker?
Yes, but with decreasing frequency. All the time freshman year, less sophomore year, and never as a junior or senior. I didn't use my backpack, though -- I just carried a huge armload of books. And no one f***ed with me, because I was the 6'1" freshman. (That may not seem unusual today, but I think kids are getting bigger. I was bigger than many of the seniors, then.)
Did you have a ‘clique’?
I was on the periphery of the jock and prep cliques, and got along well with most people in both of them but wasn't really a member of either. Nate was my connection to the preps, Scott and Trev to the jocks.
Did you have “The Max” like Zach, Kelly, and Slater?
No. A few fast food restaurants, but none that were consistent hangouts.
Admit it, were you popular?
Not particularly. I was big, and geeky, and precocious, and socially awkward, and you had to be pretty gregarious -- or just "get" me from the start -- to get past that. In retrospect, I think many people were a little intimidated by me. I came into my own a little more during my senior year.
Who did you want to be just like?
I don't think I had one particular role model. I was very impressed with Ollie North, though.
What did you want to be when you grew up?
A Marine officer.
Where did you think youÂ’d be at the age you are now?
A Marine officer. Unmarried, no kids. Perhaps doing something exciting in South or Central America.

Ollie North? Wasn't that back in the Iran Contra hearing days?

Damn straight! Annie, the Iran-Contra story broke in late 1986, at the beginning of my sophomore year in high school, and the hearings got underway in the spring of '87. Of course you were ten or elven then, so it seems like ancient history to you. I remember watching clips of Ollie in front of Congress on the evening news.
BTW, I'm no longer a big fan of Ollie, though I enjoyed his reports as an embedded reporter during the invasion of Iraq. At least he had a freaking clue, and no shortage of balls.

Hell yah. i remember Iran Contra. Watching the late Arthur Liman was the first time i ever saw what a tough cross-examination looked like in real life. He was amazing.
