When I was in high school I had several students try to buy term papers from me. I was always an exceptional student when it came to English, as I had a love for books at a very young age. I was not the most social person, but I had the vocabulary of an adult by third grade. This is due to the fact that I was very well read and could always be found with my nose in a book.

When I entered high school, my social life got even worse. Rather than try to make friends, I would spend all of my spare time in the library. I knew my high school library inside and out. I would read novel after novel and I would write book reports on them just for fun. I guess I was more than a little bit of a geek, but I was not sure how to be anything else.

One of the popular girls in my class offered to be my friend if I would give her a custom written essay for a big English assignment. I declined and was shunned even further. But, even then, I knew that this was not the type of friend that I wanted to have. Thankfully, things were very different in college. I did not turn into a social butterfly, but I did make some friends and the few that I had were all that I needed.
