In high school I was very "individualistic". At first I was very emo/scene. In retrospect, I looked fairly ridiculous.. One could say I had a mullet! I was very social for a few months, I had a decent amount of friends. But I very quickly narrowed my friends down to just 2 girls who I kept by my side for the rest of high school. I had a few acquaintances, but I wouldn't talk to them unless they talked to me first.
When I was around my two real friends I would be very loud and obnoxious. I didn't care about what other people thought of me (except for the people close to me), so I think a lot of people disliked me because I was so care-free and loud. When I was alone, in classes without my two friends, I would be very quiet and wouldn't talk to anyone.
Since I was always exceptionally smart compared to my peers, I always was the person to raise her hand in class. I felt bad for the teachers when no one would try to answer, so I got used to answering all the questions. My feelings would really get hurt in some classes where the teachers would intentionally not pick me to answer, trying to let other students have a chance at answering.
I feel kind of bad for my friends now, because every few weeks I would have a "break down" and brood over all the bad things about myself. During these times, I wouldn't talk to anyone at all and I would just sit by myself and think. My friends were both fairly shy, so they would just sit beside me in silence. I feel really bad about this in retrospect, because it probably made them very uncomfortable. They both think I'm bipolar, I don't though.
I also went through a phase where I was smoking lots of weed and I started wearing the same clothes to school that I slept in. I stopped brushing my hair and developed dreadlocks and I NEVER wore makeup(at all throughout highschool). Apparently, lots of people talked behind my back and called me weird.
