High School Stories
from LOVIN' LIFE by Sadie Love
I am not tagging anyone but just answering for my own entertainment.
1. Did you date someone from your high school: Yes
2. What kind of car did you drive? : My mom & dad let me drive the blue Ford Bronco but not to school very often (ever?).
3. What is your most embarrassing moment in high school?: Being totally crazy about Jim & wanting to go to homecoming with him but getting asked by Kenny before I had asked Jim. I asked Jim & he said, "Didn't Kenny ask you?" I went with Kenny but was miserable seeing the guy that I really liked dancing with another girl.
4. Were you a party animal?: No. Never a drop.
5. Were you considered a flirt?: I don't think so. I always had a boyfriend though, unfortunately.
6. Were you in band, orchestra, or choir?: No
7. Were you a nerd?: Definitely. I kept tabs on the drop-out numbers to see if I could graduate in the top 10%. Missed it.
8. Were you on any varsity teams?: No. I ran track & worked on the yearbook & the literary magazine.
9. Did you get suspended/expelled? : Not even close.
10. Can you still sing the fight song? : 23 years later? No. The last phrase was "rolling hills".
11. Who were your favorite teachers?: I have lots - Mr. Maxwell and Mrs. Clark come to mind. I loved my seminary teachers most - Sister Fronk & Brother Allison.
12. Where did you sit during lunch?: McDonald & Grinders.
13. School Mascot?: Husky. My best friend was the mascot.
14. Did you go to homecoming and with who?: Yes. See embarassing moment above.
15. If you could go back and do it again, would you?: I echo Sadie in saying, "You could NOT pay me all the money in the world to go back to (high) school."
16. What do you remember most about graduation?: I broke up with my steady boyfriend on the day of graduation. I missed all of the fun of the day & wasted the whole night crying over a dumb guy.
17. Where did you go senior skip day?: I probably just hung out with We-o, Penni & Beth but I don't really remember.
18. Have you gained weight since then?: Yes. Are there many who haven't?
19. Who was your prom date?: Erick Scheen - tried attacking me on the porch. Scott Boatright. Regie?
20. Are you planning on going to your 10 year reunion?: My class doesn't really plan ahead for reunions. I did go to my 10-year & loved seeing everyone. My 20-year didnt' get announced or advertised. I would have loved to go see everyone older & wiser & less clickier.
21. Looking back, what advice would you give yourself?: High school isn't the end-all-be-all of your life. Don't have a steady boyfriend - enjoy the whole high school experience.
I feel really ancient doing this...

I hated high school. People were so mean to me. Loved the comment about being attacked on the porch. I can just see you slapping the guy!
Too funny! I guess we all had about the same experience. You gave me a good laugh!
I didn't much like High School. There is absolutely no one that I cared enough about to keep in touch with. But it was fun to read about your adventures!!
Thanks for the memories! I forgot about your homecoming drama - or maybe you just didn't share it with your little sisters.
I wouldn't go back to High School and especially middle school for anything. I even passed on my 20 year reunion. Paying $100 to go see the few people that I hung out with wasn't worth it to me.
