I didn't have a bad time; my crew and I acquired a fair amount of respect by the time we reached senior year due to involvement in theatre and the literary magazine. But I wasn't out, and when I got to college I had no idea why contemporaries considered high school so awesome.

I absolutely loved high school, and I was no Heather.

Because it wasn't junior high school.

It was still possible to have a great time in H.S. without being out, too, btw.

That said, I wish I had been a little more out then, because I would've gotten a lot more ass.

I went to boys Catholic school. Ass was everywhere: pimply, swollen, lanky, you name it.

Swollen ass = a consequence of puberty.

9th = was still in junior high, but it wasn't quite as bad as 7th/8th
10th = I finally feel like I fit in
11th = don't remember much
12th = HS ROOLZ

Swollen ass = a consequence of puberty.

In Catholic boys schools, I guess.

omg, you WERE one of the Heathers!

Lots of filched unconsecrated communion wafers.

high school was the best

J0rdan S., Monday, 10 May 2010 23:32 (fourteen years ago) link

there's something about the innocence & mild rebellion & rush of initial independence of high school that can't be replicated

J0rdan S., Monday, 10 May 2010 23:33 (fourteen years ago) link

i knew you'd understand

Oh I get that part, but it pales beside what succeeded it, and the sexual discoveries were forced and not, er, gay.

cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:41 (fourteen years ago) link

i'm okay with having only masturbated all thru high school tbh -- sex in college has only been marginally better anyhow \(o_O)/

REALLY

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:47 (fourteen years ago) link

hs is the worst and I still look at anyone who says they like it funny

jagger edge (The Reverend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:50 (fourteen years ago) link

then again I never developed anything remotely resembling social skills until I was about 19

jagger edge (The Reverend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:51 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah that might have something to do with it...

J0rdan S., Monday, 10 May 2010 23:54 (fourteen years ago) link

Rev, were you nineteen when we met? You were totally cool!

cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:54 (fourteen years ago) link

20, I think? I was a v different person than I had been 2-3 years earlier at that point.

jagger edge (The Reverend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:56 (fourteen years ago) link

Yeah, definitely 20, cause I was just a couple months shy of my 21st when I got kicked out of the EMP bar.

jagger edge (The Reverend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:56 (fourteen years ago) link

I was v. much an angry, awkward, frustrated, nerdy teenager.

jagger edge (The Reverend), Monday, 10 May 2010 23:58 (fourteen years ago) link

hs was a "best of times, worst of times" situation for me:

on the surface I was rocking: class president, had a diff. girlfriend every year, lotsa friends, in a band, doing a zine, part of the punk scene, plenty of fun shit going on

inside / in secret: closeted, doing lots of risky promiscuous stuff in public with strangers, lying to everyone, painful unrequited love for str8 friends and bandmates, clingy n depressive, homicidal/suicidal, a mess.

I'm glad I survived.

wow

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:05 (fourteen years ago) link

i'm glad u survived, too. highschool you sounds like a very interesting person

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:06 (fourteen years ago) link

i was def v much in the closet and was scared of being outed but that didn't really hinder my experience in high school -- most of my straight guy friends weren't doing shit w/ girls until late in senior year anyway, so i didn't really have much pressure on me

i had tons of unrequited love for str8 friends, and even had subtle moves subtly rebutted, but in a weird way it kind of gave my life purpose -- like in a perverse way it was fun knowing that after we went swimming, i got to go home and masturbate to the thought of a circle jerk -- i kind of took the position of "i'll figure this out in college" & was cool w/ it

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:08 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah the closet is awful but it also animates every interaction with this pressurized power that lends an unmistakeable, big erotic charge to mundane stuff.

I don't miss it, but I've been thinking about hs a lot because tomorrow I fly home to Louisville, KY to see all my old posse, and my highschool band is reforming to play a benefit concert for our friend who has bone cancer. It's going to be a major headfuck to sing those songs I wrote at 17 (love songs about other people in the band, mind you) after all those years. Weird! Awkward!

twice boiled cabbage is death, Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:21 (fourteen years ago) link

awesome, amazing. u'll learn a lot about yourself

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:28 (fourteen years ago) link

i was not "in the closet" but i was not like OUT either

i fake it so real, i am beyonce (surm), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:28 (fourteen years ago) link

You woulda loved my locker room after PE, surm. I can swear that I was too young to feel urges. I didn't kiss a boy until I was twenty-two.

i was 20

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:32 (fourteen years ago) link

i first kissed a girl when i was 13

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:32 (fourteen years ago) link

It was so romantic. We sat on the dirt. A rat the size of a tabby scurried over the pine needles.

cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:33 (fourteen years ago) link

i felt real pressure to kiss a girl just to say that i had kissed someone, but i never felt enough pressure to go any further just to say that i had

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:34 (fourteen years ago) link

Well, with your looks you could have been.

cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:34 (fourteen years ago) link

which resulted in me being quite the heartbreaker in HS -- i feel like i should track these girls down so i can do the whole "no really, it really WAS me, not you" routine

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:34 (fourteen years ago) link

ha!

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:35 (fourteen years ago) link

Oh, attention all NYC gays: I might be in town the weekend after Memorial Day (first week of June). I'd love a FAP.

cool and remote like dancing girls (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 00:35 (fourteen years ago) link

i used to kiss girls in like elementary school, bc i was really popular with them and i kind of figured why not. the other girls would tease me cuz i had a crush on this one girl, elizabeth ann ferree. she would write me letters about how much she liked me. my grandmother thought it was funny.

first kissed a girl at 15, first kissed a guy at 21

jagger edge (The Reverend), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 01:13 (fourteen years ago) link

My social skills were cultivated in drama club, sr year by getting riproaring drunk at the parties. Also, I wd chase girls when I was blasted.

kind of shrill and very self-righteous (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 01:20 (fourteen years ago) link

I never even drank until I was 18

jagger edge (The Reverend), Tuesday, 11 May 2010 01:25 (fourteen years ago) link

first kissed a girl at 13, first hookup with a guy at 16 (no kissin'), but I was straight-edge in hs
