A Week With Christian Chandler
A school project Chris did to document one week in his high school life. The report itself and the information within provides valuable insight into Chris in his early years, including the development of some hobbies, mannerisms, habits, etc. The report was done in April 2000, during Chris and his family's return to Ruckersville.
Chris openly admits falling asleep in class on a regular basis, a behavior some believe went unchecked, and might have influenced his present laziness, indolence, and the like.
Chris seemed to have undergone basic behavioral adjustment classes, including a "coping class/study hall" (pages 8-9). During these classes however, he like to spend his time reading R. L. Stine books, rather than pay attention. In his years on the internet, that has become evident.
Chris disparagingly refers to some of the other students on his schoolbus as "slow-in-the-minds" on page 6. It's not fully spelled out whether these are bullies or other special needs students, but the fact that he dreads the bus on page 8 and the reference to "immature teenage boys" on page 14 suggests the former. Either way, his high school life was not as pleasant as he would portray it later.
Christian mentions winning a Pokemon costume contest, despite the fact that his Ash costume was the same one that he wore every week.

Saturday, 4/29/2000:
On our 1st day of following Christian, we followed him as he was getting ready to go to the Pokemon Trading Card Game League at Books-A-Million. All ready to go, Christian and his mother leave for the League. On the way, they stop at B.P. gas station, so Christian could fill his sports bottle with some refreshing soda pop. After Christian enters Books-A-Million for the League, he sees someone with a rare, holographic "Team Rocket" Dark Raichu card. So he offers all his tradable holo rare cards and non-holo rare cards, but the boy did not want to trade his Dark Raichu card. After signing in with Marc, the Gym Leader, he trades a few cards, then he plays many card games. Much later, because of the release of the Team Rocket cards, now available in stores, a party was held with games and prizes. We watched as League members played a Musical Poke Ball game. A costume contest was also held; 5 people came dressed as Team Rocket members. But Christian was wearing his Ash get-up, like he usually wears every Saturday; it was originally a Halloween costume, but he thought of it as also a formal item to wear for the League. So, he entered and won 1st prize, a cool T-shirt. After receiving the T-shirt, he left for home so he could go to Ruckersville before it became dark.
