Poll question: Freak or Geek?
Which were/are you in high school?



Me: Geek. If there was ever any doubt, definitely Geek.

3. I was in the following clubs...you decide
Radio club
Speech club
Spanish club
Z club (a service organization)



I took AP classes and liked Star Trek....

It shouldn't be hard to know where I fell on the high school food chain.

5. Total freak.
No clubs, unless you want to call rolling weed and dropping acid a "club."

7. 50/ 50 I know it sounds impossible, but i really had a double life
for a while there. i used to get straight A;s and be all quiet and arty and then go to after hours clubs dolled up like siouxsie and sit in the sinks in the mens room looking for trouble. most of my classmates had no clue, i looked pretty innocent at 15!

9. Geek
I was a nerd who semi-effectively convinced people I was a freak by making lower grades by not trying (really stupid thing to do), growing my hair long, and wearing lots of seventies band shirts. But my friend group was about half-geeks, half-band nerds who fit in with the preps. So I guess I was a little of many things.

Oh yeah, and Freaks and Geeks is my favorite show of all-time...
