My middle school was twice the size (at least) of my high school. Massachusetts really is better than Fuck Hampshire in every way, shape, and form.
Because a lot of people spend the rest of their freakin life trying to recreate or maintain the wonderful life they had in high school. And a lot of people spend the rest of their life drinking and in therapy trying to forget the horrors they went thru during puberty and high school. Its an important time in our lives. And its fun to know where people came from and a way to connect with them over the faceless internet that we are all hooked up to.
WoW! I don't have 1 bad memory of HS! I had a blast. Sorry you guys had such a bad experience. It was guys like me that shoved you in a locker and hooked up with the cheerleaders under the bleachers!
You should have gone to college. If you want good social structure, alcoholism, and to know where people really became who they are, nothing beats it.
I don't know how true this is, but people said a lot of the types that were the jocks/popular kids in high school ended up being like gas station attendants and shit like that. I was in the middle of the pact sort i guess.
btw, how many people from high school do you actually keep REGULAR contact with? I mean someone you call, and they have your number in their cell phone? Me? Probably 5 or 6...same small crew I kicked it with in high school.....we're all geographically separated, but when I'm in their city or they're in mine, we meetup and grab drinks and remininsce
I was very popular and played sports and consider myself quite successful. I hate blanket statements.
I just heard a lot of that at the 10 year reunion....most of the people that attended ended up being pretty looserish...which is funny because it was Jesuit. hah
nah, just what people said. also some crazy stories about the smart kids in school turning psycho and shit during college
My 10 year HS reunion was awesome. The funniest part was seeing people who always wanted to hook up during HS finally getting together. I was very lucky in the sense that I went to HS with a group of great people from stem to stern. Of the 276 people in my class, I can think of only a few with whom I wouldn't want to have a beer.
