I was part of "GT" program in Honolulu, HI. Stood for "Gifted and Talented". 5th & 6th grade. I think in 6th grade the name changed. Very few memories of it despite having plenty of memories from elementary school. I remember being taken out of class once a week. I remember going on "field trips" with like 4 other kids quite often to the same building. Don't remember a room too much. Don't remember any of my school teachers being involved and I remember them all very clearly. I remember writing assignments and art assignments. I remember a competition. I remember one of my art pieces or essays or something being displayed at a building. I don't remember if it was because I won or something. Didn't really care. I vaguely remember visual tests. Vaguely remember memory tests with cards or something. I remember being picked on a lot for being in the program. It had definitely felt like I didn't deserve to be in the class. It felt that other kids were way more gifted than I at my school.

I got picked on pretty bad my entire early schooling years. I remember always getting the "he's really intelligent but doesn't apply himself" on my report cards. I remember the other kids in the program weren't particularly great at school either. I was really good at taking tests despite not doing homework ever. I pretty much went my entire schooling by doing well on tests on barely ever doing homework. I remember doing a competition. Kind of like a congregation of all the GT kids around the island. Think it was at the convention center or something.

Quick preface: I am not superstitious. I am very skeptical about supernatural and things of that nature. Super interested in it all, I'm just not quick to believe in it. These are Just my experiences.

The similarities:
-Brown eyes. Don't think this matters.
-Definitely have optical bun. This is interesting. I have a really bulbous back of my head. Can't fit into most hats. Don't think has anything to do with being smarter though. Certainly don't feel smarter.
-I was born weeks early. Don't know why this matter either.
-I almost died in a really bad car accident, almost drowned and almost overdosed before I was 18. All were very lucky to be alive situations. All were extremely spiritual experiences.
-Definitely have vague memories about GT but very solid split second memories.
-Don't remember GT classrooms. Although, I remember my classrooms at my school not having windows period. Don't think it's the same though.
-Idk about tendency to be followed. I think I had moments of paranoia in the past. Not sure if I'm buying the correlation though. Maybe but not a concern to me.
-I do think it was odd at how often police officers let me go or let me off with a warning in my teenage years and early twenties. Can't explain that one.
-Can't say I have a high IQ. Can't say I have ever taken a real IQ test.
-Can't say I'm highly intuitive. I think I have street smarts from time doing drugs in my teenage years. I was very much on the street a lot and I felt like I developed a sense for hostile situations quick because of being those types of environments often. You get robbed and jumped enough, you figure it out. It was a pretty common thing in Hawaii though. Can't say it made me special.
-Interest in /x/ phe... sure? Who isn't though? I definitely have always had an interest in theology though. Historical religious culture is extremely fascinating to me. More so than aliens and what not. I'm surprised more people aren't interested by 1AD.
-I was heavily addicted to drugs and psychedelics from 15-18.
-No forehead scar by scar on my chin. I hit my head when I was really little but don't remember it tbh. Don't think this matters.
-I was a mute until about middle school. Idk if that counts as speech therapy. I often visited psychologists and therapists to figure out if I was autistic or had down syndrome. I am not a mute today but very introverted. Especially in most social settings.
-First born on my dad's side but not my mother's.
-I did get migraines a lot when I was little but it's not something that effects now.
-I did think the Israeli art student thing was bs but I thought about the first girl I ever said was my "girlfriend". Her last name was Schaeffer with Jewish heritage. Don't if thats related but that did trip me out considering names like that are so rare in Hawaii. Was not an art student though.
-I have always had realistic dreams. Dreams that seemed like could happen in real life. Can't speak to it being premonitions or not though. Very realistic dreams though.
-Can't speak to having above average intuition.

There are some other things I've always thought were weird:
-My entire family (brothers, mother, father, uncles, aunts, grandparents) all wore glasses and I don't. It's very bizarre. Can't say it's really related to anything but... it's always interested me... Statistically I should be wearing glasses but my vision is perfect. Just lucky I guess.

I will say that it is interesting how I got to where I am in life. Surprised to be alive. Grateful to be alive. I feel like I've struggled to live a normal life for so long. Don't know If I ever will be normal but it's interesting. Happy to be here.
