My brother graduated

My brother graduated

My brother graduated from high school on Saturday! He's the oldest.

Do any of you guys have older siblings that are, um, very "teenagerish"??? If you know what I mean. :) He didn't really even want to go to the ceremony, but he did! I don't see him much though because he does a lot of plays (he's a wizzzzzzzz with lighting!!!!) I haven't seen him for at least 24 hours.

I know what you mean about "teenagerish", thankfully though, my brother never really has been like that.  :)  (most of the time)  :D

Tell him congrats!  He must be about the same age as my brother, because he's graduating too.  :)

No, I'm the oldest. I wonder if my siblings think I'm "teenagerish" sometimes? (I hope not!)

My brother just graduated from high school last year, but he isn't exactally "teenagerish." Now my sister on the other hand is REALLY ok, maybe not that much but enough to be noticeable, (by me at least). She likes clothes, hair, shoping, makeup... ok, maybe she is.

Neither my brother nor I are the steriotypical teenager. My brother's very self-motivated; he pours his time into graphic design and filmaking, which he believes will be his life's work. He, correctly, sees this time in his life, when he has most free time, as the time to prepare for his life more than any other time that has been or will be. I'm really proud ofh him. It does mean he hogs the computer a lot, though. :D

Yeah, I don't THINK I'm "teenagerish". But yes, I know what you mean.

My siblings and I refer to "teenagerish" as Weird Teenager syndrome, and I hope never to catch it. Innocent 

By the way, Admin, is there supposed to be a limit on the characters I can type in the age slot, or it that a bug? I was trying to type "Soon to be 14," but it was too long.

Yes, there is a character limit on the age field.

We used to have about 30 WEIRD TEENAGERS IN YOUTH GROUP! Luckily, they're moving up to senior high. I'm kinda happy I stayed back in Sunday school a year until my friends could move up, otherwise, I might have caught weird teenager syndrome! *Gulp!*

There wasn't anyone there who wasn't a weird teenager. Except me, and a couple of other girls.

Let's start a list:

Jordan

Skateboard nubs. (Even my older sister thinks being a skateboarder is dumb.)

The weird girlygirls. (One waved in the window in the middle of our class. >:()

A bunch of kids whose names I don't know. (This covers most people there.)

 

And no, Emily, you're not a weird teenager, you just said so in your last post! :D

My olders sister is extremely "teenagerish" 99% of the time. I pray that I will never be like that. Everyone says it's normal for kids to be like that but (hello!) I guess I'm not normal!

Yeah, I'm weird, and, to tell the truth, I pride myself on it. :D
