During Years 4-9 (Grades 9 -14 I believe, for you Americans) I was a main part of the popular kids. During the later years I fragmented and settled into a more tight-knit group of people who weren't really considered so cool by the 'mainstream'. We were the Metal/Rock/Grunge crowd. However, this development offered me the status of being able to delve into any group I wanted at any time. I was at home in either group I chose to be a part of because both sides knew me well. University was obviously a bit different because it's so vast that there's not really crowds where everybody knows who they are. However, again I shied away from all the sports lads and big societies and just found my own bunch of about 6/7 people. Outside of my course, there was probably only about 25 people max who knew me well enough to call me a friend.
