I brought everyone together to reminisce over memories and yearbook photographs. We learned where some people went off to and that a couple died, did drugs, became strippers, et cetera. lol It really did feel like we were in high school again, except we were of drinking age. I talked to people that I actually didn’t talk to in high school and felt appreciated. I did have three sips of a drink which was stronger than I had thought it would be and I currently still feel a bit woozy, but it was definitely worth it.

    was this your 10- year reunion? I’m gen-x and graduated with a class of 100. we have not had any reunions at all. I feel like I’m missing out on this American experience.

      I was class pres during senior year so technically I’m supposed to organize our reunions but I got the vibe that everyone was either going somewhere they didn’t want to come back from or the people who stayed would’ve just kept in touch if they were interested in the first place.

        I bet you didn’t notice that clause in the fine print when you were class president, did you?

          Most certainly did not, government teacher tricked me into it after saying we wouldn’t have a class pres at all. It’ll be easy they said! You won’t have to do a thing they said!

        I feel that

        When I reached out to some of my old classmates the general consensus was that the we only wanted to forget out highschool years.

        2008 - 2012

        Yeah those were some hard years for a lot of us.

        So it was basically decided that were weren’t going to do it
