QotD: It Set Me Apart
What set you apart from the rest of the kids at school?
Submitted by jks.
seeing how this question is set in the past tense, i shall answer according to the past. at school, i was pretty loud. out of my batch of friends, i was pretty loud. there are multiple times when people tell me, "anna, i heard you from across the hall" or "i heard your yelling my name from across the quad." mmm yah, i am a loud person. then again, meet my cousin, elaine, and then compare me to her ... and you will see where it comes from (:
i wasnt really a prissy girl. i didnt really dress up, seeing that i went to an all girl school, i found no real reason to impress anyone. actually, i dont even really dress up in college.. no point in impressing anyone, and anyone who was really my friend, would still love me the same. (: i could go to school with unkempt hair, and look like the preppiest girl ever. which rbings me to my second point -- i always wore a black skirt, polo, and my ASB sweater. yah, the one embroidered with "Anna Ibarra, ASB Treasurer." i loved my uniform. yah, so i wore it without breaking the rules, and basically being the model uniform wearer. most ladies wore their uniform, without following the rules. so i guess, i was unique in that respect.
i guess you can say that i was the nerd / total dork, in the volleyball team. again, out of my group of friends, i was the only one who played sports. i was far from the "jock." i wore glasses during my first three years. hehe. yah, there are stories about that (:
