>>6580431i suppose another interesting note is that the elementary and junior high are on the same road so basically all the people in my class are the same people
on that note i try to reconnect with old 'friends', can't because we have nothing in common other than where we came from, basically get pushed along the current
crave meeting new people that i can relate to but dont realize it just yet, all of junior high basically goes like this
graduate and go to the high school that also happens to be on the exact same road lmao
after 10th grade there i realize that my life really fucking sucks but i wasn't depressed just bitter
attend a tedx event in my city as i was enrolled in a leadership class, met a girl from a high school for academic elite in city that needed to write an exam to get in (very atypical, only one that i know of i think), thought she was cute, but i'm socially awkward as fuck so i try to talk to her and it's extremely awkward because it turns out she's just as much of an introvert as i am except she goes to a school full of them
interested in the school (i could have applied in 9th grade but didnt), i apply over to this school for 11th grade, my built up facade starting to crack under the pressure of many long years
write the entrance exam and get in, academics being kind of trivial because school was real easy, although i was real concerned that i wouldn't get in and would have to face my old 'friends'
at this time i also coin a term or more likely read it somewhere on the internet which is 'friends by proximity'; ie friends that you can only call friends because of some physical association, like a school. might have some things in common like a video game or a music taste but other than that you could die and they'd shake their head and say 'for shame', at best
back on topic (ironic for the board i guess) i get into the school. pace of the story will slow down immensely henceforth, since i still go here. continued;
