This was a response to a thread here, but liked it enough to post it as my new blog......
I'm so different now, yet some traits are still the same.
1984--18 years old. I was such a geek,///////still am, lol!
******* I was very shy, and afraid of the world.////Now I love to talk, still feel awkward when trying to meet new people. I LOVE to explore the world around me. Love to take day trips, wish I had money to travel places I want to go.
*******Was a loner. Sat around reading books.//////// I'm still a loner. Blame my computer for not letting me go outside and meet people!
*********Procrastinated like hell. Never planned for the future.//////Still procrastinate like hell. Never planning for the future.
********Was in the closet, though I liked being gay. My first kiss (or any sexual experience) was two years off in the future./////Totally out, though I do not brag about it. Went through a slut phase before, then after, a four year relationship (but not during). Now I rarely date at all.
******Hated myself (but not for being gay), and had NO self esteem, thought I was really stupid. Thought I was very ugly. Had a tough time making friends./////Love myself for being a gay, funny, nerd, who is NOT stupid, but does think/see life, outside the box. I no longer think I'm ugly, but still take ten pictures of myself to find two good ones. Cuss myself out for being ugly when I can't find even one! LOL
******** Did not drink, never felt the peer pressure that I "had to"./////Still do not drink, never have felt the peer pressure that I "had to."
******Saw the world in black and white. People were either good or bad. Believed everything I was told, or heard, from adults. Very naive./////Love to debate. Many times trying to see things from the view of the underdog. Still try to see the good in everyone. Overlook peoples bad qualities. Had a friend for a while who I met right after he had gotten out of prison!
Fell out of touch with him years ago, still miss him very much. Still very gullible sometimes. (o.k....most of the time....
)
