I could read and I was a bit of a know-it-all. The teacher was caught off guard -- there were three of us in the class who could read, and she wasn't expecting to have to form a reading group.

I got so tired all through my school career of everyone telling me how smart I was. Later on in life I discovered being smart is not really such a big deal after all.

Between the ages of 1-10, I was very ill and often homebound. I was so freaked out by school (mainly because I was there for a few weeks out of each semester) that I would refuse to go unless I was allowed to wear a felt bunny mask. Nobody talked to me, including teachers, because I freaked them out a bit, too, I think! This made it very easy to become totally goth a few years later--it was a logical extension of my personality.

I was really looking forward to Kindergarten until I discovered they didn't mean to actually teach us anything. Mainly, they just had us playing games that were supposed to prepare us for real learning. Or something. Most of what I remember involves wandering around the classroom looking for something to do.

25. The kid that thought sexism was dumb |
|
Not only did I think that self segregation and being ostracized for playing with the worng toys was dumb, I told everyone that the whole "Boys have cooties." and "Girls have cooties" was plain ridiculous and that I refused to play that game. Everyone thought that I was weird.

26. I skipped Kindergarten..... |
|
After 8 days I skipped Kindergarten and went to 1st grade. The biggest drawback was waiting until my Junior year to get a driver's lisence. I moved away to college at 17 and had a great time, lol!

28. I flunked kindergarten |

I was the kid who sat in the corner and played with a firetruck and refused to socialize. I also spent my "nap" staring at the ceiling.

30. I was the kid who asked too many questions |
|
And was never quite satisfied with the answers. I was also the kid preferring to look out the window.
