Blast from the past...
Wow - a whole week without blogging! After feeling like garbage for over a week, I finally went to the doctor. Yup, bronchitis. Of course, I didn't even take a day off of work - left yesterday at around 12:30 to get some well-needed rest, but that's it.
Anyway... I don't know whether it's moving back to my old hometown, my upcoming 10-year high school reunion, or her post - but I have been thinking a lot about my high school years lately. So many people I know have fond memories of their high school years, maintain their friendships for years to come. Not me. Now, don't get me wrong - there are a couple of people that I still keep in touch with who are extremely nice people, someone from my high school years even did a reading at my wedding, but I don't have any of those close friendships or fond memories that people speak about.
I graduated with a class of almost 600 students and I never even had the chance to develop close relationships with even a small segment of my class. And I think that I graduated with a disproportionate number of b**chy girls - you know, the cliques where people would decide one day that they didn't like you and that was it - nobody liked you. Ugh - girls are the worst.
All of my closest relationships developed as a result of people I met in college or shortly thereafter. But I think that I am in the minority - hubby still stays in touch with many of his HS friends (including this one), two of my best friends married their high school boyfriends (or at least guys they went to high school with)...
So, am I the only one out there without a high school history?
