Updaaaaaate!I promise this will be just about it for wedding-references. An event that is so incredibly huge and magical and awesome kind of loses the magic and awesome after a month of writing thank-you cards and exchanging broken dishes and scanning photographs and fixing rings ( Read more... )

Personally, mine was 5th grade: I left really hardcore academic private school and went to an incredibly low-expectation public school where I was educationally about a year ahead of everyone else, and suddenly became the huge nerd.

I didn't know anybody, I was socially awkward, I was relatively smart, I was a spaz, and I'd just started wearing glasses (which I now know I don't need).

An actual quote from my introduction to my new class:

"Class, this is Stephen. He's new to this school, so try and be nice to him."
Me - "Hi."
Some kid - "You're weird!"
Me - (attempting to roll with it) "Heh, I suppose I am a little queer..."
Everyone - "OH MY GOD HAHAHAA"

I SERIOUSLY DIDN'T KNOW QUEER MEANT GAY IN THE FIFTH GRADE.

Backwards ponytails.
Coming out from the forehead like a tiny horn made of hair.

... I have to say that my fashion sense hasn't improved much since then.

Once or twice in infants school i wore pegs in my hair. i do have to say the goth thing was a bit iffy, though.

I was also a victim of the glasses, those awesome ones that cover half your face. I was pretty awkward from 8 to 14, in every manner of speaking.

I think the project wonderful would be a good idea:

A. Because i am thinking of starting my own site and wouldn't mind at least knowing a place where I could begin advertising at some point.
and
B. I'm always looking for new and interesting happenings on the cyberweb
and also
c. Because it could make you rich.

Think about it, sir... think of the wealth.

In my younger and more vulnerable years, I would take those little orthodontic rubber bands and tie my hair with them so that i would have about 20 little dreadlock nubs poking out all over the place. Which was awesome.
