Preppy? Oh, now I am insulted. I'm a left wing political junky feminist bisexual, and I'm not opinionated at all... A lot of my friends' parents thought I was a bad influence on their kids.
As a matter of fact, I'm anaphylactically allergic to alcohol, and having one's throat close kinda puts a damper on experimentation. I also have violent allergy induced seizures when exposed to products of combustion, so no weed or cigarettes as well. ctually, Amy former hippy mother is a little upset about the marijuana part. Mind, every time there's a big wildfire around, I need to take an impromptu vacation, but drugs are out of the question.
I took Russian in high school, and now I'm taking Russian and Arabic. I have plans to take Hebrew and Farsi. I'm a political science major and I hope to get my PhD in near eastern studies. I'm a dedicated student by my own steam and ridiculous ambition, but you wouldn't know that from my attendance records, (thank God most professors don't take it) because I have a set of immune and autoimmune disorders that regularly keep me stuck in bed.
I dropped out of high school because every time the science classes dissected anything, I couldn't go to school for four weeks, and in between, the girls soaked themselves in perfume and the boys in aftershave, and the janitors smoked on the roof, which the classes all vented to, and the maintenance people would touch op the latex paint without telling anyone. I took my GED as soon as I dropped out and became a college student at the start of the next semester with a full ride scholarship.
I spent my high school years (both of them) mostly in twice exceptional classes, for students who qualify for special ed funding and disability funding, because gifted is funded through special education. Once a substitute teacher came in, and we didn't know it, but he had only been told that we were a special ed class. He wrote a letter to the teacher asking what were the rest of the students at the school were like if two students of ours were discussing quantum physics, and I was discussing the intricacies of the Israeli Palestinian conflict. The Next time he came in, we gave him a very hard time about it.
I have to live at home where I can control my environment better, but the multiple buildings at the university means that the ventilation system doesn't circulate allergens to the whole campus. Mind, there's still my circulatory system, which doesn't work well, and my suppressed immune system, but I can't have everything.
