My high school was one of those fancy all-girls boarding schools you see in the movies, complete with daughters of senators, diplomats and famous businessmen. There was an actual princess. But I was a day-student, meaning I didn't live there. I lived in a little factory town about twenty minutes away.
I was sort of popular by my junior year. I think the technical term was "weird but cool." It was a small school and I was the school clown, and somewhat of a daredevil. I played soccer and was on the school paper staff and did lots of activities, but most of my creativity went towards breaking rules.
My friends would dare me to do things, like go buy a "Playgirl" magazine or moon the opposing soccer team. I was always the one asking for cigarettes at the 7-11, cutting class, going up to guys, making jokes in class, writing an anonymous parody of the school newspaper. I snuck into school and stayed up all night with my friends.
