I've decided to go to my high school reunion in a few weeks because I am no longer ashamed of who I am and what I've experienced. I have gained immeasurable strength from my past and am so proud of who I've become!

Katiebell ~ please, when you've been to the reunion I'd like to hear how it went and how you did.
A great big one for me - 50 years! - is coming in 2012 and I don't think I have the courage to go

Hope it goes well. Just remember that not everyone will have grown as you have. I went to one so long ago. I don't think any of us had grown up enough to really get it. I found it weird. Felt like hiding in the hallway most of the time I was so scared and geez I had a life. It's just that everyone looked and acted so strangely. Where were those beautiful people that I admired so much when I was 17? I was always a bit of a nerd. Not in the "social set" of the 17 year-olds back in my year.
Hope I haven't scared you out of it. It was worth going to, just was a bit like revisiting a house where one grew up... it's always so much more magnificent in our memories than if we go back 10 or 20 years later to revisit. Especially if you had a boy that you thought devine. Weird seeing them all grown-up and balding with a wife and three children. LOL A 50th? Wow, that's amazing and by then maybe we've really got it. Hope you find the courage to go there, wren. Maybe I might then too! |

Have a wonderful time Katiebell. I missed my school reunion. I can't remember what the occasion was.... 20 years I think. I don't know if I'd go now if they had another one. I'd really have to think about it.
Wow Wren.... 50 years? I guess you're wondering where all that time has gone to. I know I do every time I work out how long my BFF and I have known each other. Soon that will be 50 years as well.
