How did you get through the average day of High School?

Yes, sometimes I forget how amazing it is. But I remember hopping up and down and dancing around the room back in the very late 80s when I sent an email message to a professor in Ireland and got a response from him in fewer than fifteen minutes. It was so exciting to me because I used to have an Irish pen friend and it would take WEEKS to get a letter back from her and here I had just exchanged letters with someone in Ireland in mere minutes!

Ditto. I think this might be why I got so good at drawing made-up faces. I doodled or I daydreamed.

I learned to pass the time, ( to make whole days and weeks pass ), "invisibly", without moving, in school. I've never really lost the habit.
.

Doing my school work, reading, sleeping, pacing, playing my video games or listening to music. Being on the computer.

But in my senior year I had to bring ear plugs with me because the freshman in my class get loud in Spanish and I didn't like sitting with my ears covered and I didn't like standing in the hall and the floor was too dirty for me to sit so I started bringing ear plugs to use for that class. Plus they also chat with me in that class.

I also remember having violent thoughts because kids piss me off because of how they treat me and how they act.

I also got extra help in school and I was always taken back to the resource room when I act up in class.

I did my work and avoided socialising whenever possible. I do pretty much the same thing in college.

Well after finding work very difficult as I have learning difficulties, I just stoped caring, focused on my fitness and boxing then did 5 years in the Army.

So all I did at school was, be a complete neusance, Day-Dream alot, and lots of staying behind after school.
I also got bullied all the way through school aswel so that didn't help. (thats why I started boxing etc.)

My day in HS? Come, stay quiet and wait for the end. I used to sleep (people thought I had Narcolepsy and I didn't correct them; I still fall asleep during classes), draw, read, write songs lyrics or hatebook (diary) and be absentminded. I was horribly bored and tired at school. I had severe depression.
It was special school for gifted kids, but NT kids. Too many lessons, too many words and too much stress.

Yup.

Zone out. Shut down. That was my life for high school.

I got through with some difficulty.
