I was a determined teenager, willing to do whatever it takes to get the opportunity to go to one of the best colleges through athletic scholarships. I think private school culture sort of made me feel like that was what I wanted, but I learned it wasn't. I was a big risk taker, too, to the point where I almost got in a lot of trouble.
My friends thought I was crazy, fun, wild, social, and that go-getter that they wanted to be. A lot of times they would often sit and talk about doing things, and I'd always say "well, get in the car, let's do it! We're going now." And they would act all hesitant, but it wasn't stopping me.
I can't think of any trends I started, because there were a lot of them that came and went. I just did my own thing most of the time, but people thought it was cool to try what I would do too.
I was a bitch when I was unhappy, it was probably the worst side of my personality at the time, but I've really grown to get over myself and not worry about silly stuff. I wouldn't express how I felt, but many times I would find myself to be very angry, and couldn't really find anyone to blame but others and never myself for a while. At some point I blamed myself too much, but when I look back I see how silly I was to really care what other people did, even though it logically didn't make sense to me. If it doesn't affect you, who cares?
