This weekend is my 10-year high school reunion. I can't beleive ten years has gone by. Am I really that old??? I feel like it was just yesterday.
I am going to this reunion, this is probably the only one I'll go to. Its not like I've kept in touch with anyone since graduation. There were not a lot of people who were nice to me in high school. But I am going to show that people can change, and that physical appearance does NOT make the person. Because while most of them are going to show up heavier and balder and wearier looking than ten years ago, I am showing up looking better that ever!!! Far from perfect, but 160 lbs lighter than the last time any of them saw me. I bought a new dress and new shoes (my SIL Sally, would appreciate them- they have 3 inch heels!! :-) At times I feel bitter about my high school days and the way I was treated, and at times I look forward to seeing a very few of the people who are going to be there. I pray my attitude stays away from the bitter, and that maybe some of these people have grown up and maybe we can just have a good time. But to keep my hopes from getting too high, I keep telling my husband, "We're just going on a date, and some of the people I went to high school with are just going to happen to be there." And he's the one I'd rather be with anyway!!! :-)

I'm going to my ten year reunion in September... I wasn't unpopular in HS, but I wasn't part of "the crowd." I went to a small school, and about 20 of us went all the way through school together - K-12. I've already gotten back in touch with a few people over the past year and they've all been incredibly nice and friendly - much nicer than they were ten years ago. I hope the same happens for you :-D
Oh, and three inch heels are tons of fun! I have several pair :-D
