My High School Reunion justed past.. Yup...it's been 10 years since I've graduated from high school. And sadly enough I feel like I have nothing to show for it. Sometimes I think that a high school reunion is just to show off what you've accomplished in life so far; not to remenis over old stories or see how things are going. I mean, I still have fun hanging out with friends and I'll even admit that I can still have fun at work. Unfortunately, I've been at the same job since I graduated high school and I have a Culinary Arts degree that I have yet to put to use. No hot girlfriend to show off, no lovely wife and bueatiful children (I'll admit I'm not mature enough to have them anyways), no $250,000 salary to brag about...And not to mention it was $75 to go. It would definately suck if I'd pay $75 for a crappy night. I felt that my true friends didn't show up in my life until after high school. Don't get me wrong...there are some people, but I don't talk to them anymore and vice versa. We lost touch. I still keep in touch with people from 9-10 years ago, but they're after high school. If I went back to see old people from high school, I was afraid of my old high school persona would resurface. There are few people I'd like to see again and a whole lot of people I could give a rat's ass about. It may sound harsh, but I'm sure the feelings are mutual. I don't know...what do you think? Should I have gone?

Wealth is what you make of it. Being successfuly does not mean you have to have the 6 figure income nor trophy wife and hot car. Life is what you make of it man. As long as you are alive and breathing than you have nothing to complain about. There are always people out there who has it worst. I value my wealth from the love of my family. I'm comfortable with what life has given me so far. Remember, your in a position in life by the choices you made. Your decisions. Everytime you point the your finger check to see the three fingers pointing back at you. It starts with you...

Don't get me wrong...I know I have it good. I mean my parents gave me a house! I'm very happy and grateful for that! It's a bit tough to keep up with the bills and loans, but it's all good. It's just I can't help but think, I'll be the outcast again, or people rubbing in how much nicer their life is (which will probably make me want to :nutkick: ), or simply put...I'm just not going to enjoy myself. $75 is a good chunk of change to me. It's funny...I got a myspace request the day after. This guy I used to hang with in HS started a page because he had such a great time and realized how much he misses everyone. So I guess that's cool. I was actually curious if he was going to be there. He was someone I would've like to see again. But like I said, there was probably a lot more people that I couldn't care less about and I'm pretty sure the feelings are mutual.
 
I graduated from high school in 2005. I live in one of those towns where no one leaves.

I got out. I spent nine months in New Orleans. Then my fiancee and I came home because she was worried about our not being able to afford Tulane and Loyola even with our scholarships.

God, it's like a high school reunion every time I go out. I don't think I'll go to mine anyway...My fiancee and I were really good friends with a group of about 8 people. Some have gone on to screw us over and the rest of them never make any effort to get in touch and I'm sick of always being the one to initiate the conversation. The rest of the people from high school were idiots, sluts, ***holes, etc...

People always said "oh these are the best years of your life and when you get older, you'll look back and miss it..."
If high school was the best years of my life, I'm going to end up living a pretty lousy life.

So basically what it boils down to is that I'm only 19 and I've decided not to go to my high school reunion.
 
any former homecoming king/queens here lol?

i actually like seeing alumni at work or around the city to catch up. funny the places you'll run into a familiar face sometimes. but an organised get together (next year for me) sounds kinda weak. my egos fine as is.
 
i have never been to any reunions for school i think i have missed 2 maybe 3 now and to tell you the truth i can't even remember half the peoples names in my class.
i am not really that bothered about it i have my own friends and dont need to show what i have got to anyone.
 
Wow, I didn't expect such a negative response. Get over yourselves. Just Go.
 
this is my senior year in high school, and i know im not going. its not like i was teased or bullied or anything, i just dont like anyone. There are 2 people i care about in my school. I know i will always keep in touch with them. I talk to other people and we call it each other "friends" but i honestly dont give 2 ****s and a **** about them. Id rather spend my nights playing with my fish.
