Going off Bunny's Teen Tunes thread 
I was obsessed with Rocky Horror and Stephen King novels and, slightly later on, James Herbert, Dean Koontz & Richard Laymon novels.
I was also quite punky from the age of 15, when I really discovered bands like Greenday & the Ramones, and lived in pink Converse, black jeans, either a red and black or pink and white striped Ramones t shirt, and a black and pink striped hoodie and Jack Skellington bags... so an alternative bisexual teenage girl.  |

I was a complete knobhead.
I thought I knew everything, that I was better than everyone and that the world was stupid and only I could fix it.
I like to think I've changed. Now I'm just somewhat of a knobhead. |

We were both in to our motorbikes, being rebels and partying.
Today, we are both in to our motorbikes, being rebels and partying.
The only difference being it takes a bit longer to recover from partying all weekend. |

Bit of a shit tbh street fighter and bully that led a gang that ruled my neighbourhood.
Was going to end up a loser probably in jail by 20 but something happened that changed all that for me and now i've made something of myself and can look in the mirror and be proud of the man i have become. |

I was older than my years, not really interested in music, fashion or being in with the in crowd. Went to clubs every weekend with my sister and our friends. Married with two children aged 19. Always happy. |

I lived in black as a teenager. .. think thd only other colour was blue jeans.
I went our with mates but for company and to dance not to get d*unk. Yes I had thd odd row with me mum but what teenager doesn't.
Think having to help out at home as a teenager made a difference to my outlook. My mum was a carer for her mum and my terminally ill aunt lived with us a lot.
My sister is nearly 5 years younger than me and was a nightmare teenager

"Shy, sexually frustrated, falling for the wrong people, raged against the world and never true to myself.
I'd like to go back and tell myself some things."
If I did that, I'd probably end up slapping myself, for telling me to fuck off and mind my own business.

Well done. Be proud of yourself and for realising before you ended up in prison. |

The problem is, I quite like myself most of the time, and if I hadn't done some things, and other things hadn't happened to me, including really bad things, I wouldn't be what I am now.  |

I was pretty good really. My rebellious side was a heavy rocker, but my hair wasn't very long and my jacket was a bit too well embroidered (by my own fair hand). I was however deceitful in a number of ways and a secret smoker. I had a good heart though and did voluntary work with those 'less advantaged' than me. I had a reputation as a bit of a Lothario but that was more malicious rumour than fact because as a result I didn't have much luck with girls until I left school. I never really explored my sexuality properly (good Catholic upbringing) and still suffer remnants of the 'guilt' that plagued me then. |

I had loads of mates, We played football rode are bikes and done some stuff I wouldn't recommend to others but I never hurt anyone or done anything serious, Oh and I was never arrested or have a criminal record either, Didn't really start drinking until my mid to late teens,
I was the quiet one if you asked my parents 
They was/are always shocked when I reveal some of the stuff I done and got away with 
I didn't really do the girlfriends thing as I spent way to much time with my mates then chasing the girls |

There's a lot I'd change if I could do it again. A lot of bad decisions that lead me down some wrong paths.
But some of those bad experiences do make up who I am now, so who knows what the outcome would be. |

As an early teen I was quite bookish and a rather good girl. Once 15 hit...different story. Big hair, bigger earrings, baby doll dresses and boots. Music mad and I went to every gig I could get to. Happy days. |

I was a rebel without applause....a plause I mean,well both really!
I was crap at chatting lasses up n rarely even managed to ask for as much as a kiss on the cheek....even though I had sex on the brain 24/7!
I'm still an under-applauded rebel without a plause...still crap at chatting up the lasses,although now I'm not quite as painfully shy so will ask for that kiss.....n with tongues too,whooty whoo! |

12-15 really academic, head in a book constantly and really really good at physics.
Then stuff happened and I fell into a tough crowd when I moved away so I turned into a rebel. I regret that so much, I could have done a whole lot better than I did but falling into a crowd and not getting the shit kicked out of me took over, rather sad really and I am ashamed of that.
I wish I could have been innocent and naive for longer |

Bit of a twat. Underachiever, to the annoyance of my mother. Too much of a know-it-all who didn't actually know all that much really. Lacking in any real identity. Awful fashion sense. Jealous of my big sister for various reasons. Bit of a loner. Geeky. Bit overweight except in summer when I lived at the local outdoor swimming pool. Desperate to grow up to the extent that I probably wished away too much of my youth. Stupid haircut. |

I did my homework
I read books
I listened to music
I ran regularly
I went to the gym to get stronger for playing rugby
I didn't smoke
I wasn't out getting d*unk
I ended up being Deputy Head boy and bullied
I was an introvert even then but in those days they called it 'shy' |
