I mean... do you guys want to hear about how my friends and I made "The Power Team" when I was in grade school of which I was the "Team Scientist"? Or how about when in a desperate bid to be "popular" or at least "liked and not bullied" I ran every year for the student council in middle school, the whole while I had to wear a "binator" (think full MOUTH retainer WITH headgear at school. I could also go into how, once I hit my growth spurt I hit six feet well before anyone else in high school and the basketball coach had greed in his eyes. He convinced me to go out for the team (though I had no interest in sports and didn't know a damn thing about basketball). The lasted half way through my first season during my freshman year where he took me aside after my second game and asked me if I would like to be the student who recorded the games. I was led to believe that "lettering" in sports would benefit me in applying to colleges. So not only did I record the basketball games, but I was the student manager (a.k.a. "water boy") for the football team. It was a job I hated with every fiber of my being, but I did it because I thought I was investing in my future. Eventually, I quit that, only to have the football coach offer me my own number if I came back because no one else was willing to do the job. Thankfully, I refused. I was too busy doing other manly things, like Swing Choir, Choir, Band, Marching Band, Jazz Band and a half-dozen other musical activities. Also, I'm the reason that my high-school had to put in a "maximum page count" on the yearly short story assignment because I've never written a short story that didn't turn into a novel.
