High school meme

I don't think I've done this one yet. Nothing resembling it in my meme tag.


1. Who was your best friend?
Pat, Pat, Dan, drama kids (no shock there), the Bitch Crew

2. What sports did you play?
Took a few tennis lessons

3. What kind of car did you drive?
'92 Toyota Camry, right into a creek

4. It's Friday night, where were you at?
Depended on the season. Football game, friend's house, home wishing my parents let me out

5. Were you a party animal?
Not

6. Were you considered a flirt?
Not really. My, how times have changed, yes no?!

7. Ever skip school?
Depends on your definition. Not in the strictest sense of the term. But I conveniently missed a few classes here & there. Once, I had to take a saxophone lesson during French class. I didn't play the saxophone. Mr Killian supported this move somehow.

8. Ever smoke?
Nope.

9. Were you a nerd?
Oh sweet mother of everything yes.

10. Did you get suspended/expelled?
Nope. But I lost the "privilege" to use school computers at the end of junior year. That's a story I should write sometime. It involves a Japanese boy, the Talking Heads, and the guidance office.

11. Can you sing the Alma Mater?
Yep. (For summerspirit73 it sounds a lot like Nearer My God To Thee which is played in Titanic by a string quartet as the ship sinks.)

12. Who was your favorite teacher?
Mr. Perry. I owe him a long letter of thanks, which I actually outlined once.

13. Favorite class?
Choristers or AP Bio.

14. What was your school's full name?
Corning-Painted Post East High School

15. School mascot?
Trojan man!

16. Did you go to the Prom?
My junior & senior, but no others.

17. If you could go back and do it over, would you?
Nope. I pretty much hated 9th-11th grade and was incredibly bitter and depressed.

18. What do you remember most about graduation?
Throwing caps

19. Favorite memory of your senior year?
Post-prom party at Marco's

20. Were you ever posted up on the senior wall?
The what?

21. Did you have a job your senior year?
No

22. Who did you date?
3 very different people in very different ways... Ashley (spring '99), Kristin (spring '00), and Rebecca (summer '99 Baltimore). Also a couple other minor things with various young ladies.

23. Where did you go most often for lunch?
The cafeteria.

24. Have you gained weight since then?
Thankfully, yes. Some good, some bad.

25. What did you do after graduation?
This question doesn't specify "the night of", or "that summer", or "with life"... So I'll say that that summer, I spent every weekend eating like crazy, because that's what was the fashion then. During the week, I had an unpaid internship at Corning, Inc that my parents tried to make fulltime, but really demanded about 1/4time. So I wasted lots of my hours at Sullivan Park, developing my affinity for coffee, learning about how the IT support works up there, and eating breakfast sandwiches.

26. When did you graduate?
2000 - 6 years ago this week. I think I missed the exact day. Meh.

One entry down, one to go!
