Hey, I am weird and stand out. At least I can have pride in both of those features :P

High school is basically like elementary here, there is no real entry exam. We spend more years of the same. My high school was in less of an urban environment, more sub-urban, so I didn't get in physical fights like I did in elementary. Instead I was able to focus on my schoolwork, though it was a pain due to the whole "expecting you to have friends thing". Miss a lesson? You are expected to get the information from someone else, which is near impossible when other people hate you and aren't required by the teacher to give you anything. You learn quickly not to miss a day of school. Funny people called me devoted, I just say it was a necessary thing to ensure get bad grades due to a warped expectation by the teacher. Field trips? I almost always turned them down for similar reasons, it was not worth the stress and complications.

Of course, teachers would have to talk to me because I stared too much at another student or they feared I was going to destroy the school or they were worried about where I was going after school so they had the police following me. Parents calling because they were afraid of me being in the same classroom as their children. For some reason everyone thought me some messed up individual, perhaps because I was open with my individuality and wasn't afraid to do what I wanted. I would headbang when I felt like it, shout and fire imaginary blow darts at people, and restock my pencil shaving army to the sound of trumpet fanfare. There was also of course my openness for my love for violent games and metal music, neither of which could I relate to anybody else. Usually when you are an outsider you tend to be shy, know your place, and remain isolated. You don't choose a random table at lunch, not caring if there are people there, because you know the people will move away from you. You don't start yelling in high pitched gibberish and giggling uncontrollably for no reason whatsoever. Freedom is seen as dangerous, thus me being one of the most free souls there meant I was seen as one of the most dangerous. I didn't threaten anybody, I never played with weapons or anything stupid, yet I was seen as a maniac. I don't regret it at all with the students, I just am frustrated with the teachers for making my life so difficult and giving me extra hoops to jump through.

Read the above paragraph, then tell me I am mature. I can be very serious if it is needed, even when I joke around I ensure my work never suffers, but I heavily enjoy just being myself and doing whatever I feel like doing. Even if that means freaking everybody else around me out. Hey, I set records! No matter what, I stand out where I go! Living in infamy as a monstrosity is only a negative thing if you see it as such, at least I don't get annoying phone calls and can become entirely cut off from the world at a moment's notice.

Yeah... not an accountant. Ugh, I forget the name of your job, I know you are the technical person and maintain the records. It is something simple, but my brain can't think at the moment for some reason, perhaps due to an overwhelming amount of technical difficulties in the last few days. Hey, it was a fair assumption to think you were a teacher if you work in a school and are loved by a lot of the students, xD.
