Not great when I was teenage if you mean school .. but I think I have done well in life ..so is aight' I was just listen this song when I read your Q. It reminds me when I realized I needed take an alternative route in life... I gotta stop typing now cos I'm rambly mood :)
I read the lyrics ...one line which caught my eye...when temptation calls we just look away....Jamie I've done that all my life....again great song Jamie....like you said...nothing matters if you are doing well in life;))
Well. I was always a straight-A, high GPA student. I struggled more with math and science toward the end of high school, but still pulled off the good grades.
I was bored. I cut school a lot, I flunked Trigonometry, and I rarely studied. Yet, I graduated with honors. I think someone really screwed up at that school. Or, the others were just a lot worse than me. I dunno.
OMG I was not a good student....struggled a lot thru school, esp. high school......this was back in the late 1950's........I hated math, but loved history and English classes.........really hated gym class......to this day I don't understand why we had to go thru that nonsense.......but it was required.........required? then why not have accounting or art classes be a requirement? oh well.....
glad those days are gone!! but I did have many good friends, and as a young gay guy, not out to anyone at all........had the fun/thrill of always being able to check out other students' and teachers bodies!! i had a gym teacher whose butt was incredible......same for my HS guidance counselor!!! oooooooo what fun fantacising!!
