    I didn't really even start having an actual experience of hanging out with people and doing what I imagine is "normal teenage things" regularly until I was basically already done with high school

hmm sometimes i stay away from my phone / keep my laptop on dnd so feels slightly more like having a desktop pre-smartphone era .... ?
i also treat my messages/texts like email (pre-smartphone) sometimes - like i'll check it whenever i feel like sitting down to check it all, as opposed to checking notifs

    Yeah I did lol, it was a long string of events that started with me thinking "huh yknow this is all kinda a waste of time, I'm not going to be a mathematician so why should I bother going on with my advanced math classes screw this" in middle school

    Kinda glad thought they changed the laws in my state to make dropout age 18 rather than 16, I tried to dropout at 16 using my epilepsy as a medical excuse, and if I wasn't told I couldn't do that, I would have grown as much as a person and made my closest friends

    The funniest part about that thought process that started it all in middle school: I now waste my time making unnecessary math problems to solve myself, like the time I figured out how long it would take five people perfectly timing each post in the undercurrent to complete a 1 million page thread

being around people you like who love and support you truly makes all the difference

i became disillusioned with school somewhere around grade 11 and learning functions
i sucked at it LMFAO
pride as a stereotypical asian kid who liked math, shattered

    I'm really good at math, but I had an intense hatred for math class since the way it's taught isn't super great?

    I was only able to enjoy it once I was able to do what I do best: take my decently-developed skills and use it for the dumbest and most useless purposes possible
