June 18th 2007
What was/is the size of your school?
around 3000. My graduating class was around 900.
Where did/do you attend to school? Did you attend multiple schools due to moving or other occurrences?
My highschool was in Manahawkin, NJ. I only attended this highschool as I did not move during the time that I was there
What was/is your favorite class? least favorite?
Favorite class is a tie between AP chemistry, which I took in 11th grade, and Pottery 4 IS which I took in 12th grade. Least favorite class was US History 2 which I took in 11th grade also. I did liked it because the teacher was a classic ESTP and it annoyed the hell out of me. The class was a joke.
Did you fit a particular stereotype if so which one,or where you pretty much a rebel?
Nope, I didn't fit any sterotype. I was a typical science nerd, but I didn't get along with that group. All my friends were the japenese/anime kids, and I hate anime, it bores me. I was also in with the Art nerds cause of my ceramics class. Because of all this. I was just my own breed.
Best book you read during high school?
A Brave New World. Read it for english in 12th grade.
Favorite teacher? describe him/her!
Tie between my Pottery teacher who I had for all four years, and my AP Chemistry teacher (who also helped me when I did an independent study in organic chemistry).
My pottery teacher was an ISFJ I am pretty sure. She was very much a loud mouthed itallian woman with a moody temper. She was strict and has favorites. However, she was exceedingly kind and caring to everyone (well, almost everyone). Me and her had a rather interesting relationship. She was constantly yelling at me for dropping/breaking things, and hoarding all the sponges and glazes in my cabinet. Our constant fighting and yelling was a play game though, we never hurt each others feelings. I love her.
My chemistry teacher I am pretty certain is an INTJ. She is brillant. She was one of the people on the research team that decoded the protien structure of insulin way back when. She saw potential in be far before I saw it in myself, and went out of her way to help me. She did it in the most effective way possible though. I was not aware that she was helping me. She was quietly observing me, and when the time was right, she started to open up. She also really looks out for my well being. She knew if I was upset or something was bothering me. Mentally we are on the exact same page and could talk about anything for what seemed like hours. We were intellectual equals if you will, able to understand each other with no effort at all. Which we both said is rare for us.
Did you recognize any MBTI in your classmates/teachers?
I wasn't well versed on MBTI when I was in highschool, and I was very poor at typing people. I can look back and type them now, but only a handful with confidence.
School Mascots?
Ram
Graduation song?
I don't think we had one. I don't remember hearing one at our ceremony. If we did I don't remember.
Any particular trends?
Yeah. My highschool is on the jersey shore (yes... I am from the jersey shore). As such, there was shore culture there. Lots of surfer/pot smokers. That split into two camps. The dumb camp which did poorly in school and skipped all the time, and the smart crew who could smoke pot then take a test and get an A (I kid you not, I have seen it happen first hand many times). Sports got a disproportionate amount of attention so there were a lot of jocks, but they weren't bullies from what I seen, albeit it not very nice. The ones I knew though liked me. I was very well liked and very well known in my highschool for a number of reasons
