So  apparently today is "Celebration Day' at school, which basically means I only have half a class today. Which screws over my lesson plans and leaves me with nothing to do. So I kill time by reading LJs. Got the sudden inspiration to read some old high school friends' journals.  Ran across Dan Aikin's old journal.....oh how much we've changed since then.  Him maybe not really, I dont know, as we haven't spoken in a very long time. Me,  definitely a different girl then high school.  Not in a "holy cow, she's done a complete 180" sort of way, but different. Hopefully more mature. It was funny reading through the progression of our 'friendship' (for lack of a more accurate term)...i was at one time (probably still am) included in the list of people who hate him, although I dont remember ever hating him. I remember we got in a big fight after homecoming 10th grade because I didn't want to date him (mostly because I wasn't allowed, but also because I like someone else) but there wasn't any hate. Maybe minor annoyances, (especially after some of the rumors he started) but hate is a little strong. Then a few entries later, in a conversation with Mr. Moore, apparently I'm the girl who broke his heart (include Italian accent). Gosh. Didn't know he cared that much.

It's always interesting to look back and see what used to be important to you, the things you used to fuss over, who was involved in your life. I think it would be interesting to sit down and have coffee with Dan now, see how he's doing, where he's at in his life. We're different people now...maybe we could be friends again.  High school was such a fleeting time, and yet it shaped so much of our lives.

I think I'll go visit the ol' Starfarm when I get home....see my old teachers, reminisce. It'll be good for the soul.
