Your Crazy Teenage Experience

[Katrina]

Tell us a crazy story from your teenage years?

When I was 15, I went to spend the night at a friend's house and in the middle of the night we decided to get in her car (still wearing our pajamas) and drive to Chicago. I have no idea what we were thinking but we took her small, white dog with us. The dog got car sick so she was not much protection. Then we got lost and couldn't find our way back to the toll road and we risked our lives in a bad neighborhood to stop at a gas mart to ask for directions. Once we got to the toll road we had to pull over and look all over the floor of the car for coins to pay the toll. We were fortunate enough to find what we needed because a ticket for not having the money would have been outrageous and there is really no way off the toll road once you get on. The toll must be paid.

OH and this was all before toll transponders were ever thought up.

Wow, you were a badass. I was a keener concentrating on my schoolwork at 15. The worst I ever did was when I was 17 and indulged in a little underage drinking, made myself sick and got a right telling off from my dad who was a policeman.

I spent my teenage years getting up at 5am to get ready for school (lived 50 minutes from school so had to catch a bus with a friend on the county border), going to said friend's house in afternoon for an hour until 4 when my mother would pick me up and take me to work until 11 before picking me up again. On days I didn't work (Monday-Wednesday), I caught up on homework and largely slept.

haha no, I was a follower of someone who was a bad influence on me 😀 She's still my best friend today and we recently had a conversation about her being a bad influence...as she was telling me we should go swim in the pond that said No Swimming.

I had a friend that was spontaneous like that. I used to hang out with him all of the time since we'd been friends since the 3rd grade. He wanted to drive 2 hours to another town so we could visit a strip club and we were barely 19 at the time and he used to plan out trips for me and him. So we'd go to bars even though we couldn't drink. It got boring pretty quick. I think the best time I had with him was when we went to a wrestling match and then stayed at his sisters. Unfortunately a year later he became too wild and out of control and ended up sleeping with a girlfriend that I was with. To make things worse, she wanted me out of the picture and convinced him that I wasn't to be trusted. So we had to part ways because he betrayed my trust in him and 5 years later he came and apologized. But we still didn't hang out after that. I had moved on.
