[quote=Anonymous]I wasn’t really any of these.

I was fairly reserved, had my set friend group of drama geeks and academics.  I have a learning disability (dyslexia, ADHD, SPD) so struggled in school as a child but did really well (thanks medication) in HS and ended up competing in academic competitions and graduated with honors.  Still wasn’t considered one of the smart kids, not geeky either.  Never bullied, got along with most of the other groups except for the popular kids but I never cared that much. Average looking, average grade, kind of forgettable but happy.  I liked HS so much better when I stopped caring about the totem poll and just found my people.

Now I’m a PA, wife and mother of three.  I’m happy.  I have a good job that pays well.  I keep up with a handful of friends from HS through social media and 90% of the popular kids ended up back in our small town working mid-range jobs like me (accounting, nursing, teaching, first responders).

The most popular girl ended up being a pediatrician at the one doctors office in town.  She was one of those girls that was popular, beautiful, nice and intelligent.  She did end up marrying her HS boyfriend who was a massive jerk, he’s a cop now. [/quote]
