I used to be an IA addicted a few years ago. While at work, all I could think about was getting home to catch up on the gossip I had missed lol. I can say I have made a lot of friends in real life from this forum. As far as high school goes, I was the nerdy/gothic/kept to myself type for most of my school years until 10th grade. That's when I started coming into my own little thing I guess you could say. Then especially the last half of 11th grade and my senior year. Shit was nothing but a big ass party it seemed like all through 12th grade lol. But as far as being friends with the "cool kids" or the "in crowd", I always knew them. And I guess it helped that two of my cousins, that were sisters, where like the two most popular kids at my high school lol.
