And I Will Be Wearing Your Lacy Lingerie (Freddy I'm Yours)

I think I've kind of been avoiding updating about the dance because... oh, I don't know, really. I've had a weird last few days. Everything's turned upside down again ( Read more... )

Oh how I love finding new JL'ers and remembering what a different world high school was.

Sorry for the random comment, I just saw you go to JL. It's very bittersweet to read others' high school experiences :P

Haha, that's okay. When did you graduate?

June 2005. It was very bittersweet. Needless to say, JL has changed so much in the last year that I'm probably a little happy I'm in univeristy now :P I do miss how things used to be though. When life was easy...Haha.

Oh yeah I'm sure it has, but it's still a good school. It's just... well, it's high school, haha. :P

JL was/is an awesome school, I agree. My sister is in grade 10 there this year and I guess she likes it? I don't know, she doesn't talk about it much. But I really loved it & the teachers. It's sort of too bad you don't get Mr. D, he was a lunatic who ran out on his chemistry class last year and didn't come back. Ms. Caulfield was left to teach it and realized he taught everyone all wrong :P I do miss Mr. Myers and Ms. Skinner and Mr. Harris and Mr. Figg...man, it really makes you realize how different university is. You really do go from knowing all of your teachers and having them know pretty much everything about you...to being in lectures with 500 other kids your age and being nothing but a number to the registrar.

I guess the moral of the story is to enjoy high school while you're there because it will be the three greatest years of your life.

Yeah, I really like it. What's her name? I agree, the teachers are amazing. Mr. Dr sounds cool. I know Ms. Skinner (never had her, but friends have) and I don't have Mr. Harris but I've had his wife Ms. Curran and I know him pretty well, he's amazing. I love how home-y it is... everyone really does know each other even though it's a big school, and it really just is a comfortable safe place. Even though these years can be hell, JL really makes it easier. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else.

my sister's name is Michele. maybe you know her. and I agree. J. L. is a very close-knit school and it's so wonderful that way! I've always disliked (especially now that I'm out and meeting so many university studetns that aren't from/have never been to Spryfield or J. L.) when people ask, "Oh my goodness, and you've never been shot?", and things like, "Yeah, I heard J. L. wasn't a very good school, you know, with all the violence and things." and I was just like...uh, yeah. I love(d) J. L. and never experienced or heard of any sort of real "violence" while I was there! Stereotyping really sucks.

I know! Honestly, I know a lot of the people around here are like that but a lot of us aren't, too. Sure, I know a lot of violent people. And drug dealers. But I'm friends with a lot of them! Besides, there's people like that everywhere. Ugh... I'm so sick of people looking at me and saying, "You don't look like a Spryfield girl..." It's like, what is a Spryfield girl supposed to look like?! I agree, stereotyping really does suck.
