    Post Growing up differently

    What are some of the things you grew up with that sets you apart from how the typical person grows up with wherever you are? (were?).


    -Instead of gaming consoles and systems, I grew up with computers and emulation for games.

    -I didn't do stuff like soccer, basketball, baseball, or lacrosse. I practiced martial arts.

    -I never ate dinner at a table with my parents. I would always take my plate to my room.

    -I didn't receive my first cell phone until after I graduated high school.

    -Instead of shorts for gym class, I was always the guy with the sweat pants.

    -Unlike your typical kid, I always ate the vegetables on my plate.

    -I've never had a date with a girl, or been in a real relationship.

    I was picked last in gym class only because the leaders picked their friends first. I guess what set me apart from others that were picked last is that I was excited to just play a sport despite being picked last.

    - In high school, I stayed home and studied rather than going out.
    - I stayed at school from 7.30am-5pm just to work on music. @w@;
    - I've never been in a relationship or kissed someone.
    - Even though I don't train, I'm naturally good at sports; even though I don't practise, I'm naturally good at music; even though I study, I'm not that good at academics. x___x That's just how my brain works.
    - I travelled around the world a lot so I saw more than the average kids.
    Set by me.

    What made me grow up different?

    - I got bullied hard so I developped Atychiphobia. I got back my confidence, twice as strong.
    - I smoked at age 12, stopped after half a year again, due sensitive lungs
    - I started drinking heavily at age 14, had to stop completely at age 17, rarely drank anything after that.
    - I used to wish I was dead, now all I wish for is to live and stay healthy.
    - Got used by several guys on a row, lost all hope at a serious relationship.
    - Got used by a so called best friend, twice actually, lost all hope at having honest friends.

    Maybe my thoughts are in doom-land yes, but this is me growing into being adult.
    I just want it all to happen and things will change if this lifestyle is bad for me. I'll adjust.

    I honestly have a huge list, but I feel embarrassed posting them. ._.;

    -bullied a lot until I went to middle school
    -avoided being around boys because my dad told me they're bad influence
    -before I moved out and I was still 18, I still ask things from my parents only because I live with them

    -Was spoiled to death. (So spoiled we actually almost bought me a limousine and a carousel at one point)
    -Caught my best friend stealing from me red handed (really makes you think about stealing on any level)
    -Raised by my grandfather and grandmother (So one wanted me to be a dancer/girl like the other wanted me to be tomboyish)
    -Received my first cellphone in 5th grade. Yeah I was the coolest kid ever. They all hovered around it ;p
    -Took dance lessons 4 days a week until I received my first F in school from being driven too much
    -Learned how to drive a ATV at age 4. -which is why you probably don't want to cruise around with me as the driver. I scare people hitting turning lanes at 45mph.
    -Had a game nerd for an older brother.
    -Once thought that kagome from inuyasha was Sailor Mars in Sailor Jupiters Clothing. Then discovered adult swim and everything beyond it.
    -Go by my own beliefs.
    -Being spoiled as a kid led me to have a horrible diet now. :| kids eat your veggies.
    -By age 17 I had 3 cars in my name.
    -I was friends with everyone. Gay black dudes. Stoners with no future. Preppy girls with silly relationship problems. idc who you are but if you're cool I'll chill with ya.
    -Lived in doctors offices. There's hardly a month that goes by where I don't have to visit a doctor. Changes your output of life.
    -Met my best friend online Via youtube the summer before entering 9th grade. We met up at an anime convention. Best friends since. Similar story to my BF.

    -While every one else was talking about their type of music and songs I stayed quiet and listened because I have very different taste in music.

    -I don't care what people say about me or even if they stare at me. I dress the way I want to dress.

    -I've learned a lot of life lessons from my favorite singers/actors that I don't learn from my family or friends.

    -I love all kinds of technology so I try to fix or figure things out myself.

    -Had a millionaire suitor at the age of 11. (One of the weirdest and funniest experience I have had.)
    -Has always been pressured to do great academically, even till now. (I think this applies for every Asian out there. >_<)
    -Never been bullied, seriously never! (I don't know why but it just never happened to me, is it because China's safer? Doubt that. XD)

    I heard China's worse. Could be wrong, though.

    Okay so ... I can't remember much from my childhood that's relevant to the discussion, but I'll try:

    1) My household didn't have Internet (at least what I knew of) until I was at COLLEGE ... when I was 17. o_o
    2) I probably spent more time getting told off for adventuring in the local woods as I did playing Sega Genesis. So, back then video games weren't a big thing for me >_>
    3) I could actually sleep straight from 9pm until 7am, though I usually got up at 6.30am to watch Swat Cats. >_> Now I can't sleep properly at all ... sucks.
    4) Bullying sucks. A lot.
    5) I could NOT eat meat. I couldn't get it down for some reason :|
    6) I didn't have a cell phone until I was like .... 14 ... and even then I didn't really get into using it until I was at college.
    7) I always wore what I wanted to wear, but when I was a kid I HATED jeans. Now I HATE tracksuits. o_o; puberty, huh.
    8) The first video game I bought out of my own money (and not bought as something such as a christmas/birthday present or such) was Rollcage for the Playstation.
    9) That Playstation, ironically, was my mum's.


    That's a lot more than I expected to think up o_o
    : The Game. You just lost it. :

    My signature was so old it broke. RIP signature.

    Default Re: Growing up differently

    Ok where do i start:
    -Instead of having many friends, I had various pets. Dogs, fish, Guinea pigs, and rabbits. I don't like cats because i'm allergic to them.
    -I was bullied and outcasted ever since elementary school, to high school. The bullying ended after i left The D.P.S.S., but i was still rejected by most people.
    -Out of the few friends i had as a kid, most were other nerdy guys who people disliked. I only had 4 female friends that were black but i had more female friends in middle school who were asian or latin american. My dad also introduced me to some other kinds of people as a kid, to show me that "There are good people in all races."
    -For a while when i was a kid people thought i had ADHD and i was on ritalin in elementary school and had to take Adderal in middle school. I was even put on Zoloft when i was taken to a shrink. I never helped me at all. At one pint i wanted to kill myself. My dad took me off the meds since he believed it didn't work. I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome at age 14.
    -I was jumped by a street gang when i was 12 and put into a hospital for a month. A few old friends from the neighborhood saw what happened but did nothing to help me, so i stopped hanging with them. Friends don't let friends get beat up for no reason.
    -I was always interested in art as a kid. My dream is to be a comic book illustrator. I also took a interest into graffiti after seeing artwork done by local graff legends.


    That's all i can think of for now. I'll add more later.
    Man that is whack!

    • Food wasn't wasted in our house, I was taught to eat everything on my plate. Dad cooked full meals for us: steak, veggies, potatoes, yorkshire pudding, etc
    • I played with my brother and his friends most often, and my other neighbours, we were often outside having fun.
    • We were near the ocean, were we swam when we went to the cottage
    • Learned most things from my brother
    • Lived in a rural area
    • I was bullied
    • I always rode my bike, a common thing was "There's Mary riding her bike!"
    • Didn't swim till 6th grade
    • Played video games with brother
    • We loved wrestling and I've been to Raw and Smackdown
    • Used to watch horror films with mom all the time
    • Dad took us out to eat a lot
    • Mom was the more comforting and warm parent, dad was stricter

    Its really sadeading what life wasike for other people and relising that no matter where you are people can still be treated just as bad . and most people here all have things in commen when it comes to there life. For me i was the kid who would invite anyone to do anything but i wouldnt take s*** from anyone yet i was the one on the lossing side but never stopped me. i was always told i would die in a car and i would never make it to uni yet i have proven everyone wrong and i was bullied as well but i normally tryed to give it back and i had really good parents that helped me out more then i can ever return to them etc

    I had game consoles - NES, Genesis, Saturn...And computers. But it was an old 386. I could play Wolfenstein!

    I played outside more than I did with the games, till I was in high school.

    I never had a PS2 till last year. I just got a PS3 today. I never had the cutting edge, except when I build my computers, and I don't even care about that anymore.

    I never had a cell phone till I was driving and working, so about 16. I was never allowed to have a plan or minutes of my own till I was 18.

    I grew up with VHS tapes, and bought the first DVD player for my family at age 20.

    I never played sports, but I did Tae Kwon Do for several years till I moved. I was never good at sports. Still that way.

    I didn't have a girlfriend till I was 17, had my first kiss then too.

    I was friends with both jocks and nerds, and would drink beer with one and play D&D with the others.

    I had to buy my own car. This was a rarity among students in my school. Didn't bother me much.

    I was raised to have manners, and my parents would spank or slap me when I was out of line. I'm much more reserved in social situations than many of my peers.

    I was allowed to go to friends houses, but I was never allowed to have friends over. This continued till I moved out of my parents house. They never entertain guests, not in my 26 years have I ever seen a guest in the house.

    -I couldn't read until I was in second grade.
    -I didn't know anyone, but my family, until I attended a public school.
    -I couldn't (and still can't) talk to someone until they've talked to me first. Lead to some really bad group projects.
    -I didn't use a stapler until 7th grade. The sound it made scared me.
    -I was often sent to time-out for talking in class. Oddly, I wasn't talking to other people; I still don't understand how that works...
    -I couldn't listen to various genres of music, because my dad thought they encouraged drug use and laziness. -facepalm-
    -I cried when my pet cockroach died ;__; RIP Zinny
