I noticed elementary school seems to be overlooked a bit on this board even though there are multiple high school threads every day.
What was your experience at elementary school like? Do you wish you could go back?

I was a chad in elementary school.
It was the severe weight gain in jr high that damaged my social ability.
Even if I did lose the weight and play some sports in high school
I don't remember much from those days, but I do remember normies finding certain things important that I couldn't figure out. Destiny's Child and sports and shit.
>tfw 9/11 happens
>tfw I find it funny like every other time adults make a big deal out of some stupid bullshit
>tfw it's still funny
>>28505682
It was awful. I would not go back.
I was actually somewhat of a normie in elementary school. I hung out with grills and had a group of friends. But it eventually started to crumble away near the end, and I was a shell of my former self by the time high school arrived. It sucks when friends drift apart in high school. But that's how it is; since there are more kids and thus more opportunities to meet different kids, HS is basically a filter that filters out the real friends from the fake ones that get left behind. I was one of them.
Those normie years in elementary school was the last time I was legit happy t b h

you.. you can stop lying. its ok to not be edgy.
>>28505827
It's OK to be edgy - that's what's great about the innocence of childhood, there's none of that cuntventional wisdom running your mind.
Girls actually liked me in elementary. Everyone thought I was smart/gifted.
Things are different now.
Started out awful but eventually I made friends with a kid when we started talking about video games and then I wound up hanging out with him and his clique. We'd talk about Star Wars and shit all the time, pretty much the only period of my life where I had a few really good friends who I'd hang out with. Don't know what happened to those guys, wound up switching schools and have been basically friendless since.
elementary school is the true golden years

overage b&
Elementary school was the shit, what are you complaining about. I though the world was a beautiful place back then
It was alright.
There were sick ass dinosaur erasers in the office for 50 cents each, used to get those and play with them instead of using them.
Made up a little secret world and everything on the playground, played with them on my own and sometimes with other people.
Of course I had crushes too, and despite my best measures to not let them get out, they did and I ended up with my heart getting dashed against the rocks, over and over.
But the times were fun, I remember starting a huge uprising over one word from fucking Jimmy Neutron of all things.It still happens guy s please put me out of my misery
I was literally a chad in elementary, it all fell apart in middle school though

>tfw all the boys in the neighborhood go to the kid who's brother has GTA Vice City or San Andreas
>tfw your turn for the rampage
>who can get six stars without dying?
>print the code list off the internets
Way worse then high school.
Constantly picked on by other kids from age 5 to 11. Was too pussy to fight the other boys even when they physically hurt me. Girls actively mocked me to my face and behind my back as someone they were repulsed by. Every now and then about once a year a teacher would tell them to leave me alone but it was temporary.
At least in high school they mostly ignored me.
>School bus dropped me off at 3:55-4:00
>Dragon Ball Z started at 4:00
>fucking SPRINTED home from the bus stop everyday to catch the beginning.
>>28505682
Every day we'd start by sitting in a circle and discussing some stuff. I was always sent away by normies who wanted someone else to sit there. Obviously, the popular normies had multiple seats reserved for them, so there was no seat for me. The teacher would then get angry at me for not having found a seat yet.
I always spent recess hiding under a bench in the playground, I can't remember why I did that, but the teacher only told my parents after two years because she "didn't want them to worry"
The rest of elementary school was fine
>>28505977
is that the guy who does food reviews and talks like a 1930s gangster?
Grade 4 and 6 were shit because of the teacher and class
Everything else was okay/good
Still ended up dropping out in grade 9/10

I want to go back and experience the absolute love and obsession I had with pokemon from 1998-2001. Those were the peak years of the Pokemon craze, everyone in my school traded cards and played the games. I drew pictures of pokemon with my friend every day in class.
Now looking through my cards hits me with a huge nostalgia wave, but it's not even close to capturing that same feeling.
Hell, I wish I could care about ANYTHING these days as much as I cared about pokemon back when I was 8.

My mom sold all my pokemon cards at a garage sale and I still resent her for it.
>>28505682
Elementary was great
>pokemon obsession
>sleepovers with friends
>nintendo games
>building huts in the bushes and shit
>getting into trouble with bullies and older kids
Thats the period of my life i remember as genuinely happy. I woke up and the only worry on my mind was how i was gonna have fun that day.
>skip a few years later
>outcast with no friends, lonely and bitter
>it only got worse from there on
>>28506310
I'd give up a lot to be able to go back and live years 7 through 12 over again. Sleepovers with friends was the fucking best thing ever.
>play basketball until it got dark
>go inside, eat pizza, drink Gatorade
>go down to cool basement and play pokemon, crash team racing, and watch toonami until 2am.
>get in those huge late night talks about heavy life topics because every idea is so new and unexplored for us still.
>wake up next morning
>eat pancakes, play pokemon while watching cartoons
Yeah now I'm an adult and can do whatever I want, but that shit was all I ever wanted.
I don't remember early elementary, but here's this
>4th grade
>had to move and change schools because parents temporarily split
>was genuinely depressed when I started new school
>wasn't doing my work
>had no friends
>teacher had no sympathy
>she addressed me in front of the class several times a week
>making my name and face known to the class
>other kids would comment on what a loser I was
>felt horrible and couldn't talk to my parents or anybody
>the year finally ended
>moved back home
>still not looking forward to school
>still ended up being a loner but 5th grade teacher was super mommy-core
>she helped me and I did well that year
There were 2 other outcasts in my 5th grade class. This insane black kid who always had some animal in his jacket like a mouse or a lizard. Then there was this Vietnamese kid who tried to impress me and black kid by bringing an airsoft gun to school. The cops came and the school was on lock down, and he got handcuffed. Poor kid didn't realize what he had done. He pulled it out of his backpack as if it was a pencil.
Vietnamese kid also openly tried to bribe the teacher with some weird Asian candy. In front of the class he presented this box of candy and said specifically that it was for better grades
If you think about elementary school as an adult you are a serious fucking retard. Get on with your life.
>>28505977
circle right circle right left square triangle up
yeah, i was pretty cool back then
I wasn't a proto-Chad in elementary school but I had yet to blossom into the sperg I was in my adolescence. I was your run of the mill kid who had a few close friends and occasionally even played some sports.
Then puberty and my parents constantly fighting JUST fucked me up at the beginning of middle school
>>28505682
I barely remember anything from HS, ES is a total blur. I remember three things:
>paired up the girls and the guys in my mind who should kiss who
>I found a tall (probably) gypsy girl really beautiful
>when we finished school the homeroom teacher had a speech and bot her and my mom cried and I didn't understood why (still don't)
>>28506579
I have to mention though that even from a young age I was terrified of girls.
Maybe I was just broken from birth
>>28506538
I took the bait off of your line but you didn't catch me yet.
From grades 3-5 it was nothing but pure bliss. It was literally like one of those corny 80s movies where all the kids rode around on scooters and bikes through wacky adventures hitting baseballs into the neighbors windows and shit. There was virtually no difference between a weekend day and weekday, it was just stupid shit and pure happiness day after day. it all collapsed when my parents made me go to the opposite middle school of my friends and at the same time i discovered 4chan. we drifted apart, and by the time i talked to them again in highschool i was some weird autist who got everyone confused by how i was once their friend
Elementery was pretty bad
never spoke to any girls until the very end, was bullied (not physically and not a whole lot tho) and only had 5 friends
Buy you know what? highschool came and i stopped giving a fuck, became social, and it was amazing,
and to top it all off, i still regularly hang out and play vidya with the same 5 guys i met in elementary (22 now)
Out of all the bad things that happened during elementary, i met the people who pretty much make my day everyday. maybe i'm not chad, but 5 friendships of 16+years are hard to come by. even for chads
>playing with legos
>pokemon games/cards
>ps2
>lived far from school so never saw friends outside of school
>watched cartoons
It was good. Middle school was hell though.
I was so fucking Chad in the first 4 years or so, then I become friends with the Stargate nerd, then we got more Stargate nerds, and then we all started watching anime.
It all went downhill from there, only one who made it out was the guy who started doing crack.
>>28505682
I still stalk my elementary school crushes on Facebook. I doubt they remember me, if they do it's probably because I was acting creepy towards them.
>>28506256
Fuck man, I know this feel so well. 1999-2000 I was in 3rd grade. I was such a Pokemon nerd the other kids called me Professor for funsies.
Then my parents got a divorce and the next year I was in a different school. EVERYONE made fun of me for liking Pokemon. Elementary school was shit from there on out.
I'm a few generations behind, but I'll whip out the Pokemon Red or Crystal sometimes. But there was definitely that special feels in those years in particular.
>>28505682
>tfw spent 4th and 5th grade playing cod2
pretty much my only real interesting memories from elementary school
so much fun to use bolt action rifles. pretty much no one used automatics on most of the maps
>>28506834
kek people made fun of you for liking it? At my school you'd be left out if you didn't like it.
>>28506834
>Pokemon Crystal
My first Pokemon game desu. I used to watch the anime but I didn't have a gameboy until the gameboy advance came out.
My friend lent me her copy of Crystal and I played the shit out of it.

Yeah my new school was in a much wealthier area. My mom could afford it but not all the fancy stuff my peers had. When I started at the new school, the first person who I asked if they liked Pokemon gave me a weird look. I remember them saying "Uhm...no offense but that's for kids". Like fuck I was a kid. I was 10 at that point.
My old school Shit was cash though. I used to fantasize what would have happened if I stayed at my first school and my parents never divorced. The separation and the shitty kids fucked me for a while. It wasn't until I got out of school and an okay job that I realized none of that shit mattered.
Went to 3 different elementary schools (all within the same state). Hung out with some mates who lived on the same block I did. We threw stink bombs inside the apartments and played ding dong ditch every week. This kid who got held back 3 times egged a few houses one time on halloween.
I struggled with it because I was sort of an annoying little faggot back then.
You know how some younger boys act sort of fruity a lot of the time? Screaming and giggling and jumping around half the time, and the other half being weak and emotional under pressure? That was me.
I attribute it to my lack of a strong male role model. My Dad worked nights and I barely saw him.
My family would have you believe he sacrificed by working those nights to provide for us, but have come to the understanding now he did it because he simply didn't want to be around the kids or take any responsibility. By working nights he could come in at 2 am and watch TV until 6 am without being bothered. When he got up in the afternoons we weren't home from school yet. He saw us about 2 hours out of the weekdays for over a decade. And that's how he liked it.
>I was happy in Elementary School.
>Had Friends and most importantly a best friend.
>poor area school with lots of ghetto kids while me and my friends were upper middle class so my confidence was up
>I wasn't super popular but I had my niche.
>Collected Pokemon and Yu-G-iOh cards
>Got my mom to buy me all the popular toys/ collectables
>Was the smartest kid in class without putting in any effort.
Everything went to shit when I entered secondary school (grades 5 - 12 in Germany). None of my friends went to my next school so I was all alone. Other Kids already had friends and whenever I got along with someone, the rest of their group would bully me out. Had no idea that fashion suddenly played such a big deal and I had a hard time catching up. School suddenly got more difficult.
Fuck I wish I never left elementary school - the years in secondary school fucked up my life with bullying and being alone so I have no confidence now and think everyone is out to get me.
It was pretty dank. Had the biggest crush on a beautiful quiet redhead throughout all of elementary who I'm pretty sure liked me too. Now she's a whore, dating some wigga in Ohio. Fuck musty dudes like that.

THANKS.
>>28505682
it was great. people were nice to me. everything was simple. then i went to public school.
I was homeschooled until 7th grade and we moved states a lot, so I never got to experience elementary.
>>28506490
>I'd give up a lot to be able to go back and live years 7 through 12 over again.
For me, it's ages 8-12 and maybe the first few months of 13.
>Pokemon
>Nintendo and epic '90s PC games
>cartoons on Saturday and Sunday mornings
>playing "war" (like team deathmatch irl with toy guns) and football (not American) with neighbourhood kids
>riding our bicycles and exploring neighbourhoods with friends
>establishing a "secret club" with friends and building huts for the club
>travelling with family almost every summer
Of course, those years weren't perfect and had their own downsides (bullying, rejection, hated by teachers, friendships not lasting, loneliness, etc.), but looking back on those times, I was still maybe happier on average then than now and everything was more exciting in a good way.
>elementary school
my life was all downhill from 3rd grade onward
but it was when i was most competitive with classwork, i wish I had that drive to be successful again. now I'm just a loser
i had an okay time in primary school, i think. did really dumb stuff with my friends
>we started whittling by rubbing bits of wood on the edge of a concrete step, until it got confiscated
>we tried making perfume by picking flowers and plants and shit and shoving them into a hole in a wall and mushing it up with a stick
>started digging and found a washer buried. we thought it was one of those old chinese coins so we went to the only asian girl in our class and asked her if it was real
it was alright. then again
>fell over on the field after spraining my ankle, i couldnt get up at all
>was lying there for 15 minutes before a teacher came to help
>another time a few years later friends find a bamboo plant and start whipping me with it, ran away and fell over and they kept hitting me on the floor.
it was fucked but we made up afterwards
idk. primary school was weird
Only really remember the end of elementary school when I was playing COD4 all day erryday. I want to go back.

I was extremely sensitive, so I just kept my head down. Had this one friend that just stuck with me the whole time, and I was happy. Also, me and my friend were unique. Extremely intelligent and creative
I was extremely autistic until around my second year of middle school but at the same time I wasn't self-aware so I didn't care.
I was bullied horribly. I don't I was ever not depressed.
Elementary school was the last time I remember being somewhat happy. Yes, I was just an ugly autistic fuck, but I had some friends and was unaware of my horrifying future.
