So I was out and about today getting some last minute stuff for dinner and I ran into my friend from high school. We chatted for a while and we mentioned not wanting to go to bars here in Hollister because we run into people from high school. While I walked through the store I thought about the people we don't like running into from high school. I don't like them/to see them because of my memory of them from high school. Should I really be judging these people from how I remember them being in high school? Have they changed? How would I feel if someone still judged me from the way I acted in high school?
The answer I came to, I don't know. The person I was in high school is actually a lot better than the me now so I wouldn't mind being judged as the high school me. The real question is do douche bags grow out from being douche bags or do they just become larger, smellier, doucheier douche bags?
I think the next time I see someone I went to school with but never hung out with (because of their douchie nature) I'll smile and see what happens. If I get a smile in return I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they are not has douchie as previously thought.
Oh Hollister, how are you still so small?
