High school poll

I shamelessly stole this from the spinster because 1) I have nothing else today and 2) thinking about my high school self cracks me up.

What year was it?
1989-1993

What were your three favorite bands (performers)?
Pantera
Jane's Addiction
Mucky Pup

What was your favorite outfit?
The Jane's Addiction T-shirt that Mrs. F bought me for my birthday with my long black see-through skirt (leggings underneath) and my combat boots

What was up with your hair?
For the first half of high school, it was big and blond. For the second half, it was long and wavy and purple and not at all big.

Who were your best friends?
Julie and Mrs. F

What did you do after school?
Either went to the mall or to work, which was at the mall

Where did you work?
Arby's

Did you take the bus?
I did until I turned 16 and Mom bought me a 1986 Pontiac 6000LE named Merv. Then I spent the rest of high school carting everyone else's asses around.

Who did you have a crush on?
Tony Siler. Jock, guido, popular guy. He had no idea I existed.

Did you fight with your parents?
Yes. Mostly about boys and grades.

Who did you have a CELEBRITY crush on?
Nikki Sixx. I had a whole wall devoted to him in my BEDROOM.

Did you smoke cigarettes?
Nope. I didn't start smoking cigarettes until I lived with a Texan named Robin freshman year in college. She smoked like a chimney, had the biggest breasts I'd ever seen and said "fixin'" a lot.

Did you lug all of your books around in your backpack all day because you were too nervous to find your locker?
No

Did you have a clique?
I suppose I was part of the burnout clique, but I was definitely on the fringe.

Did you have "The Max" like Zach, Kelly, and Slater?
Rollerama, baby. We'd go there on Friday and Saturday nights, rollerskate for a couple of hours and then hang out in the parking lot and the car wash next door drinking beer with the boys.

Admit it, were you popular?
If by popular you mean often the subject of ridiculous and cruel rumors, then sure!

Who did you want to be just like?
My cousin Lisa

What did you want to be when you grew up?
A poet

Where did you think you'd be at the age you are now?
Married with kids, living in New York City, famous. Hey, one out of three ain't bad.

UPDATE: Jake and Tanya went to high school, too.
