This is wrong on umteen different levels. Yes, I was a creative kid. I also liked math and science, always did my homework, and had very few friends. I was picked mostly last in sports--not because I was bad at them, but because I was unpopular. I was actually on the basketball team, played league softball, took piano, was on student council, was in choir and was in gymnastics. I was the teacher's pet and was hated for it. People wanted to copy my homework and I refused to let them.
Was I well adjusted? Hell no. It probably had a huge influence on my personality today. I am nice to everyone and always offer a smile. I'm not a very outgoing person, but if I see someone in the corner not talking to anyone, I will engage that person in conversation somehow. However, I still detest being the center of attention.
Would I have wanted to be the popular kid? No. I'm glad I was maladjusted and picked on relentlessly. I hated it at the time, but it did make me grow a back bone and it is the reason I exude self-confidence today. I really don't give a damn what anyone thinks. And years later, I have the confidence to tell them to go fuck off if they can't play nicely.
You Were a Creative Kid
When you were a kid, you always had to be doing something with your hands.
Whether you were painting a picture or just doodling, you had to be creating something.
You were too busy thinking about your future creations to listen in school.
It's likely that every part of school was a challenge for you, except for art class.
