Not that it matters now, but I'm curious. I don't know if I was popular. I had a lot of friends in middle school and I would say I did in high school too, but a lot less people knew me as the middle school I went to was smaller.

It's weird because at the time I remember feeling like a big loser and like I was really wasting my youth, but looking back yeah. I had a ton of friends, was often out doin drugs with my bros, lost my virginity to both sexes, had the lead role in our theater club, had a kickass job as a lifeguard... kinda the stereotypical "cool kid" high school life.

Kinda a damn shame looking back because I was so depressed and abused by my parents that I couldn't enjoy it.
