I was a pretty big perfectionist in high school; I did all my work, studied hard, respected my teachers, and listened well in class. Apart from being nerdy, I was also seen as the "innocent fat girl", and had few friends. I also tended to do group projects alone, and kept to myself. Let's just say university knocked me down several pegs...
After taking a health-related break, I went to college, and I mellowed out somewhat. Grades and school-work were still super important to me, and I continued to be a hard worker. At the same time, I became comfortable socializing, and as the program ran along, I was able to assume leadership roles in various situations. I guess I can say I was a nerdy leader, haha
