--Newspaper jr. and sr. year. Sr. year I was editor-in-chief.
--Piccolo in marching band all 4 years, I was also a squad leader, meaning I taught the section drill and whatnot. Marching band is actually quite big where I went to high school (Marietta, GA).
--Symphonic band.
--Winterguard, sr. year
--And some other crap like Jr. Civitans and honor societies and 'Who's Who' and stuff. Who cares? I was mostly just into my boyfriend.
--Oh and I forgot, I was a head cashier at Media Play as well. bleh.

...and I was also awarded the Religion, History, Forensics, and Aymer Awards at graduation. The Aymer Award is voted on by the faculty and staff of my all-girls' Catholic school, so it's kind of a big deal. That and my graduation photo still hangs in the admin hallway along with the other Aymer winners.

By junior year I was also suspended for 3 days and senior year I was the resident boyfriend stealer. Those were great days.

I was not a band geek...the band was established a year before I graduated HS, and by that time I was too busy with other stuff. I'm not sure if it's still the case, but my alma mater boasts the only all-girls marching band in the country. :)

Don't I wish!!

I was a twirler/majorette from the time I was three, and in drama school from the age of four, so those weren't in the school itself (well, except the Junior & Senior Class plays). My high school was, at the time, referred to as "the last of the Taj Mahals", since the state quit funding high schools with planetariums, etc - and as a Student Leader, I got to be a guide. A lot of the stuff that I listed just lead into another. I find so much of it ironic now, like the SUN bit.

Oh, I worked as a lifeguard, too - but that was in the summers.

I got drunk and got laid.

--Also ironic: my resume for college was better than all of yours . . .
