Alright, so... I've got lots of free time (supposed to be sleeping) and energy (thus why I can't sleep), which can only mean IT'S QUIZ TIME! This will be the first in a series of meme posts, so if you don't like reading shit about my life, move on. Although if you don't care, why are you reading in the first place? Silly kids.
Ganked from
desilyna (Bonnye):
Graduation Year: 2005
School: Baldwin School of Puerto Rico
1. Who was your best friend? God, that's a loaded question. My core group, however, were probably Pepe, Danny, Migue, Frodo, P-dro, and Bill. But there were lots of others who I hung out with pretty consistently, the guys from Cirio, band kids, etc...
2. What sports did you play? ULTIMATE!
3. What kind of car did you drive? My mom's Toyota Rav4 (What a piece, hehehe. Sorry Meg.)
4. It's Friday night, where were you? En Viejo San Juan drinkin' with buddies, at a party drinking with buddies, playing music then drinking with buddies/bandmates... or maybe playing videogames at someone or another's house.
5. Were you a party animal? Not compared to a lot of kids at my school, but compared to most kids in the States... yeah.
6. Were you in the "In Crowd"? We didn't really have one that much, there were a lot of different "in" crowds, but when you go to a school with 40 kids per grade, there's not much room for cliques.
7. Ever skip school? Only for La Fuga (Senior Skip... Long Weekend, hehe), otherwise my ass would've been kicked.
8. Ever smoke? Nope, not 'til college on that one.
9. Were you a nerd? I mean, sorta, but I maintained my cool factor with music and friends just enough to be somewhat acceptable.
10. Did you get suspended/expelled? Psssh... I probably should've been a bunch of times, but I'm not into getting caught.
11. Can you sing the alma mater? We didn't really have one. I can sing La Borinquena, though, kinda...
12. Who was your favorite teacher? Hands down, Bill. But he was more of a friend, so let's see... Sammy, Mrs. Wale, Barea, and Greg.
13. Favorite class? C'mon... Band, of course. Then Physics, then English.
14. What was the full name of your high school? Baldwin School of Puerto Rico
15. School mascot? Bull (we literally copied the Chicago Bulls like... exactly)
16. Did you go to Prom? Yeah, but ours was weird as hell. After graduation, real formal, went with parents... wtf? But then partied all night, literally. I arrived home at 10am.
17. If you could go back and do it over, would you? I would've been a helluva lot better at music... and that's about it. Being a slacker then has taught me NOT to be one now (though you wouldn't know it by last semester's grades...)
18. What do you remember most about graduation? Lots of hugs, good speeches, and many friends crying.
19. Favorite memory of your Senior Year? MusicFest, or just sitting around with buddies, whether at Miguel's house, Danny's, or in Bill's room at school. I loved that place, I miss it every day.
20. Were you ever posted up on the senior wall? Didn't have one, and I didn't do my senior page... so nope.
21. Did you have a job your senior year? Hehehehehehehe.... no.
22. Who did you date? Nobody. Not one the entire time I was in PR. Well, Niemi, yeah, but it was short-lived, long-distance, and impossibly hard. So I count that one out.
23. Where did you go most often for lunch? Lunch room. And after school to WILLY'S PINCHOS!
24. Have you gained weight since then? I've lost a couple pounds, actually. I drank exponentially more senior year of high school than I did freshmen year of college.
25. What did you do after graduation? Went out with the family for lunch, then partied like crazy for the remainder of the summer.

Wow, I'm a lot more tired than I thought. But this will be continued, I swear it. Good night, ye princes and dames, 'til it be morrow.
