27. I was only in high school part time. Most of the day, I was in the gym

training as a gymnast. I went to school in the mornings only. My only friends were also my competitors.

I had a coach who would get an inch from my face and scream at me, "you are fat, lazy and uncoachable" in an effort to make me do things that even a stuntman would balk at.

At 4'11" and 97 pounds, I didn't get asked out on dates, except for by 12 year olds, but since I was sixteen, I thought that might be a bit much.

Yeah. That was me. Miss Popular. :eyes:
