That One Kid

<p>I’m that guy in my school lol. And for governor of virginia? OH HELL NO. I will make sure of that.</p>

<p>No person like that at my school. Closest thing is some kids who are competitive in a variety of ways with the best people in the school. In terms of everyone I’ve met, the people that would come close to being considered perfect still have some large, apparent character flaw.</p>

<p>Hmmm I admire “perfect” people…</p>

<p>They have natural talent. Its better than the people who work hard.</p>

<p>Haha, even if that kid saw this thread, and knew that it described him to the tee, he would never admit it.</p>

<p>I guess that’s what so endearing about him, he’s so damn humble. I get one 100 and I think I’m the boss, but this kid’s been doing that for 11 years, and it hasn’t gotten to him haha.</p>

<p>I know That One Kid. He has A+ in every class, literally, he is a top basketball player, (starting on Varsity on a really good team), he’s a talented violinist, does hours and hours of community service every WEEK, not because he thinks it looks good but because he’s really altruistic and apparently has that kind of time. what else… oh yes, president of the science club (took the USABO and did really well) and the table tennis club (apparently plays tournaments). He’s in all the highest level classes possible and has never gotten below an A+ in high school. And yet he still manages to have an extensive social life.</p>

<p>Yeah, everyone knows a version or two of That One Kid. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you. (In other words, the more tempted you are to envy or hate That One Kid, the more you should try to learn from him/her. A friendship with That One Kid is one of the best ways to become more excellent.)</p>

<p>The worst part is that that perfect kid will eventually apply to Stanford and get rejected. His spot will be taken by someone who will make you wonder “how the hell did he get in?”</p>

<p>Ah yes. There is a girl at my school like that. Freshman and sophomore years we had almost all of the same high level classes. She always had her homework done, projects were impeccable, handwriting perfect. Every Friday she would bring in cookies for the class without fail. Her hair was always straightened, make-up impeccable, wore a different outfit every day, etc. She is also a varsity cheerleader and is one of the most popular girls in school.</p>

<p>As the years went on, though, she opted out of the AP classes for honors instead. I ended up with a higher rank and a better GPA and going to a better school. But man that girl is still perfect. She made a countdown for the seniors with navy blue polka dot numbers and each one was laminated. </p>

<p>I couldn’t hate her, either. She is sickeningly nice. She always included EVERYONE with EVERYTHING and she genuinely cared about you. She knew everyone by name and would always be willing to help you if you needed it. I’m kind of going to miss her. She is a great girl.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Oh and how could I forget… he’s been elected class president this year and last year (and for next year), and I have no doubt he’ll be elected school president senior year.</p>

<p>If <em>any</em> college rejects him, that would be crazy. He’s a perfect applicant in any way (never had any disciplinary actions taken against him - not even in preschool,kindergarten, elementary, or middle school… )
He took the SAT in 3rd grade and got a 2400.
And, just icing on the cake as far as colleges go… he’s a full-blooded Native American.</p>

<p>I know a girl like that. Pretty, smart, popular, athletic, always knows the right things to say, can get along with just about anyone, basically no flaws whatsoever.</p>

<p>I got to know her better and I saw that it’s not that she’s perfect… she just tries REALLY hard to show us that her life is perfect since that she’s developed such a reputation. But I can tell it’s hard work. She’s stressed out like 99.9% of the time, as much as she tries to hide it.</p>

<p>EDIT: She’s basically like the girl that rupee2 described. They may as well be the same person.</p>

<p>bobtheboy, I call bluff.</p>

<p>3rd grade…2400…native american?</p>

<p>YEAH RIGHT!</p>

<p>hahaha</p>

<p>I am That One Kid, or my school’s version - I don’t make cookies or play sports, but then again, no one does. Being That One Kid can actually really suck. I know there was a very bright girl who, in the ninth grade, had come from a middle school that doesn’t feed many students into our high school. She was on the district line and got sent to our high school. Well, she was very bright and very used to being at the top of her class. That first week in math class we were working on problems from the book and the twins came up and asked me for help with a problem. I helped them and it wasn’t a big deal. Well, later I found out that Other Middle School Girl was crying because everyone came to me for help and not her! Well no one knew her! That kind of “rivalry” (me doing nothing and her crying) continued for two years and it was just annoying. Not to mention that when you are That One Kid and you do make that occasional mistake, it’s like you never live it down.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Are you being racist or joking? Anyway, it’s true, I don’t know why I didn’t originally mention that but it is. However, I know smarter people than him… for instance, this guy I know that’s soon to get his PhD… and he’s only 20. He learned to read at the age of 1. And there are still more… for instance some Korean physicist who could do Laplace transforms at 5 years of age…</p>

<p>I’m not being racist.</p>

<p>3rd grade and a 2400? That’s basically impossible. If that student had done so, I’d imagine he’d graduated WAY earlier than he had.</p>

<p>And usually the child progidies that graduate college at like age 13 have no social life:p</p>

<p>He/his parents decided not to skip because it would socially ■■■■■■ him. He’s 15, 16 sometime this year, so he’s a regular age for a sophomore. Although, he probably could have graduated at this age, I wouldn’t know though. edit btw: the guy soon to get is PhD is 17, not 20.</p>

<p>

No, I was just asking.</p>

<p>I never me that One Kid. Because that One Kid has always been me.</p>

<p>I’m lovin’ how humble CC’ers are haha.</p>

<p>And I would expect someone who got a 2400 in 3rd GRADE to be a little socially ■■■■■■■■.</p>

<p>Kid: Dad I want to go play
Dad: NO STUDY FOR SAT!</p>

<p>ahha</p>

<p>^Who knows? If he was that much of a genius, maybe the roles were reversed. Lol.</p>

<p>Dad: Son, I want you to go play outside. You spend way too much time in the house.
Son: S T F U. MUST STUDY!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I hope you aren’t talking about me, because I’m not boasting, simply telling people about That one Kid I know.</p>

<p>And for the record, I don’t think he even studies. He’s pretty much a genius. Although BryDeeC’s post kinda describes me a few years ago.</p>
