I'm not sure if it is the KSCS on in the background, the weather, or just the mood I'm in, but I feel very reminiscent right now. I was/am cleaning the office and I came across a stack of pictures that I used to carry in my high school purse. There were lots of pictures of homecomings and proms and best friends from that time. On the plus side, I'm still friends with a lot of those people. There were quite a few of the acquaintances that I never talk to or see anymore, but most of them I at least know where they are or know someone who still talks to them. Looking at the pictures made me want to talk to everyone and see how they are doing now. I was having memories of dances, hanging out after school, organization functions, football games, football players, mums so heavy you would fall forward or have to wear one on the back to balance you out, tennis matches, dates, skating, making out, wearing jeans every day (I miss that one a lot more than I ever realized I would), living at home, etc. It's times like this that I want to go back to high school and relive some of that. Most of the time, I don't want to do that. Generally speaking, if I am going to go back to a time in my life - it would be college. I think I have more college regrets than high school regrets. There are things I would do differently, but only because I know better now that I'm older. As far as college goes, there were things I knew better about then that I still didn't do and I regret now. I don't realize how much older everyone is getting and it's kind of scary.
Back to cleaning.
