Mostly freak for me I guess.   I had a bit of geek mixed in there left over from the Catholic grade school I went to.   

Pretty much a rocker.   Plenty of trouble I was....

If you ask my wife now she would say I am a geek or dork depending on the day. :( My high school was small. K-12 was in one building. I had around 35 kids in my senior class so the clicks were pretty small.  Everybody pretty much got along.

Although I'm only 6 years out of High School I don't remember very much. I know I didn't fit into any specific cliques, I was just kind of "there." My High School was smaller so I knew most of the kids and would just a soon hang out with the sports guys as the nerdy computer kids. The former knew most of the girls and the latter had the expensive computers for playing Unreal Tournament, although I usually hung out with just my core group of a couple friends. We went to maybe 10 parties the entire 4 years of school. It was a good system for me but I only talk to 2 people from my class these days, it was cool and I had a lot of fun growing and stuff but I've moved away and don't really care too much anymore.

I still haven't aged enough for there to be any noticeable differences between my high school photos and a picture taken today.  :D

I'm thinking of selling that PDA and all it's assorted gizmos (weatherproof box included) on eBay... I wonder if I should include that photo in the auction? :D

Yeah, I was going to mention that I was all-state in Cross Country, but I didn't think that would help with my nerd status either.  :D

Hmmm, I sort of fit into Geek/Sporty. I've always liked techy things and was always messing with the PC's at college, the techies didn't particularly like me that much :D  But I was always in most of the sports team...  Football, Cricket, Table Tennis (but not Basketball, me too small for that really :D). So I was in between really, had geeky friends, had sporty popular friends, although a few of the sporty 'friends' weren't too pleased when I won Sportsman of the Year in college when a couple of them thought they had it in the bag :P  (I still to this day dont know how the hell I won that! :D)

I can relate to that, i can geek it up if i have to, but i can also run with the sporty people if i need. Think i was a bit of all 3 at school!
