In just over a week, I have a high school reunion coming up.

Since my class has never been a group to do anythingn quite the normal way, it’s a 16 year reunion. (We really did try for the typical 5, 10 and 15 year ones, but never quite pulled it all together-- ( Read more... )

video, nostalgia, high school, friendship

OK, I need to see that movie - mostly because the school she went to is in the town next to my hometown.

Neat! I think it's going to be kind of interesting no matter what.

Not sure it's the most ethical thing for a person to do... but it's bound to be funny and somewhat insightful. :)

I'm with you on reunions; I enjoy catching up with people. In fact there is one guy I used to think was a total prick but when I talked to him last year I found he had matured a lot. He is a doctor but he decided to practice medicine in a rural area because he likes the lifestyle better. With my new Rock Hall home, I could really relate.

Winter doesn't want to go to his reunion but he reluctantly came with me to mine, even though it was the same high school.

I love seeing the evolution of people. I can honestly say that some of the people from high school have really impressed and surprised me--I didn't expect a few to survive their 20s, let alone end up successful with families.

Sometimes, it restores just a little bit of faith in humanity to see stuff like that.
