Somedays I really wish I knew what goes on in my own skull.
See, today we had yet another speaker, this one was somewhat secretly doing a sex ed thing, because you don't get this sort of information from Health class. The first little thing was about sexualy transmitted dieases. Luckly, even though I was sitting in the front row, I was able ot be unoticed. So the class survives the first one.
Then the skit is a gay man coming out to his cousin and everyone gets stupid. (They were presenting issues as skits)
It wasn't that they were being homophobic bastards, it was them not acknolwing that quite a few people in that room we're homophobic. They were forced to later on, though. One of the questions the moderator asked was if it was safe to come out in my highschool, or even be realated to someone who had come out, and it got really quiet until someone muttered a no. Then several other people agreed with the speaker.
So as soon as class was dissmised, I bolted to computer programing because in the last ten minutes I was a complte nervous wreck. But I have no idea WHY I was a in such a state.
In a more amusing note We were talking about trandisentlistism, more specificaly Henry David Theou in English, I was the one of the two people who descirbed myself of having "free time." Which is really, really obvious by the amount time I spend here. And I broke another preconception about myself, when I said I didn't relfex. Reflexing kinda sucks, mostly because I always wander to either the topic of religion or poltics, and then it just breacks down to "CAN't WE ALL JUST GET ALONG!"

They hate other people for no good reason.
Odds are someone out there hates me too.
Therefore, I will keep existing to ANNOY THE CRAP OUTTA THEM.
'Tis what keeps me going. One of my friends just "came out" and finds this outlook on life rather amusing. It comes from my issues with the amount of hate between religious groups, but can be applied to other things.
As for why you reacted that way without a clue, me thinks it's a coming of age thing. I was really skittish from grades 9 to 11 because I didn't feel strong enough to support my personal beliefs and outlook, nor did I fully understand myself or why I acted the way I did. Have you ever taken a Myers-Briggs personality test before? The test isn't 100% accurate, since it can change and all theories are questionable, but it will give you some ensight into how your brain is working at this point in time. Right now I'm ENFP, which means I'm sorta an intellectual, but also a total spaz. My F is borderline, so I can switch into ENTP mode. Just don't feel limited by what the test lists you as.

Yeah, I think I did take one of those Myers-Briggs tests. I remember that I got a "Hacker" personality on that. Now I'm INTP/INTJ.
