Were you a weirdo when you was 13?

[maarowak]

Everyone is. I just finished my hebiatrics classes this semester, and I can assure all of you that a) everything about teenagehood is awkward and terrible and everyone is lost and confused b) it's also 100% normal and expected.
But no one tells teenagers or parents that, so everyone thinks it's weird and there is so much fighting.

So, if you are on your teenagehood, buddy, it's ok. You're trying to figure out a lot of things. Just remember to be kind to others and have some empathy. And carry that to adulthood.

(and adults, be kind to teenagers)

I found my old Facebook account from when I was 13 and I would fight my younger self if I could

My whole existence revolved around kickball and trying to get my MySpace page perfectly centered with stupid codes

Hooray, we have something in common. I do amazing on tests and things of the sort and yet I have no common sense.

my parents say that about me: 'all brains, but no common sense.'

Literally everyone is a weirdo at thirteen years old. Everyone looks back on their younger self and is at least a little embarrassed, or can admit that they're way different as an adult. I can look back on myself from two or three years ago even and feel the same way. You grow a LOT during your teenage years, but you never really stop - at least I don't think you should. It's part of life

When I was thirteen I mostly tried to keep my embarrassing behavior off the internet, like it was all dumb drama between friends (the things kids fight over... good lord, it's so silly).

I was a perky/mall goth back then. People are always so surprised to hear that part, which is interesting to me, since over 10 years later I still dye my hair bright colors and dress in darker colors, and the connection is a little more obvious to me. But I suppose now that I'm older I just look like a typical young adult with weird hair. Despite my clothes always being dark, they're more sophisticated in terms of cut and style, so it doesn't evoke the sort of image I had as a teenager, thank god.

i'm still trying to forget

I think we're all kind of weird when we're in our adolescence, and it makes sense when you think about it because at that time everything around us begins to change.

Me personally, I went through an emo phase when I was 13. It's really cringy looking back on it, but I can really see why I was like that: I was super depressed and was very desperate to fit in at the time, so when the rest of my friends started leaning towards that scene, I joined in with them because otherwise I felt like they wouldn't like me anymore.

What 13 year old isn't weird? LOL

I was dressing in Hot Topic skinny jeans and shirts from my favorite "scene" bands. I was obsessed with "skater boys" and eyeliner. MySpace was also really cool when I was 13 so I was always on MySpace and all that stuff.

So yeah, I was weird and embarrassing but some good things came out of being weird so I'm not stressed over my old self.

 

[Spongebob]

Oh god i just found some of my firsts posts on bell tree and am cringing beyond belief.

 

[Mairmalade]

At 13 I think I tried too hard to be liked. I've always had a fear of being around others and how I'm perceived. I wound up embarrassing myself most of the time.

ah how things never change

 

[himeki]

INSANE WEEB

 

[epona]

to be honest i was alright at 13, i was kinda cool actually and rather similar to how i am now, it's the ages 14-16 that make me cringe just because i was so stupid

 

[Bowie]

I was stupid when I was 10.
