This is Kelcey. If anyone reads this, seeing as I'm commenting a month or two later.
1. Who was your best friend? Zef
2. What sports did you play? I was on a private swim team freshman year and did Hap Ki Do throughout, but didn't ever do any sports through the school.
3. What kind of car did you drive? My parents' Dodge Caravan and Dodge Colt.
4. It's Friday night, where were you? Glow-in-the-dark bowling (with Geoff and Kristine, who both apparently forgot) or Perkins.
5. Were you a party animal? Not so much.
6. Were you considered a flirt? Probably. I didn't talk to people about me very much.
7. Ever skip school? No. I couldn't figure out what I'd do with myself if I did, so I didn't.
8. Were you a nerd? I took Latin at ISU my senior year.
10. Did you get suspended/expelled? No.
11. Can you sing the fight song? Yes, as Mrs. Kautzky taught us.
12. Who was your favorite teacher? Mr. Daddow, our communist AP Western Civilization teacher; Mrs. Campbell, whose grammar lessons are still working for me
13. Favorite class? Honors American Lit and AP Western Civ
14. What was your school's full name? Ames Senior High School
15. High school mascot? The Little Cyclones
16. Did you go to Prom? Yes, both junior and senior. Junior with the guy I was dating at the time (poor fellow, he didn't deserve how I dumped him) and senior with my best friend at the time (and a sprained ankle).
17. If you could go back and do it over, would you? Rather go forward, thanks.
18. What do you remember most about graduation? Oddly, I also remember becoming aware of those twins Kristine mentioned being twins, although I had never actually interacted with either of them. Also feeling silly about how they had us walk. And Mr. Achter managing to use the word "class" 7 times in one sentence. I know it involved the phrase, "You're a classy class with class" and went downhill from there.
19. Did you smell bad? I don't think so.
20. Where were you on senior skip day? At ISU going to class.
21. Did you have a job your senior year? No.
22. Where did you go most often for lunch? The courtyard. Unless it was cold, in which case it was the balcony behind the bleachers in the gym. I didn't drive to school and there wasn't much within walking distance.
23. Have you gained weight since then? I had a baby. 'Nuff said.
24. What did you do after graduation? Went home and had some cake and took some pictures. I think I might have gone to a movie after that, not sure.
25. When did you graduate? Class of 2000.
26. Who was your senior homecoming date? I don't think I went, but I'm not sure. If I had a date, the poor sap wasn't very memorable.
27. Are you going to your ten year reunion? I don't know. I might not get invited, if it's held the way the 5-year was.
28. Who was your home room teacher? Mrs. Kautzky the gym teacher, then the band directors, Mr. and Mrs. Ewan, then just Mr. Ewan. (They didn't know what to do with us.)
29. Who will repost this after you? In all likelihood, no one, given no one will notice a new comment two months after the original post. (I'm SO good at checking people's blogs. Clearly.)
