Is it normal not to remember any details about when you were in school? This past week I've been looking at the scrapbook that I made a long time ago - apparently I won a lot of things back then like science fairs, poster contests, and young author contests. I don't remember this stuff. In middle school I received awards for being the top student in three of my classes, I don't remember that either. I only remember bits and pieces of my junior and senior yrs. of high school - I mostly just remember I was miserable. I looked at my college transcripts and realized I had more credits than I remembered plus there was a bunch of classes that I can't remember anything about. It's so weird, if I didn't have the proof I would never have believed it. Is everybody like this?

Aahh, the night is calling, and it whispers to me softly,

I'm the only one to blame.

I'm safe, up high, nothing can touch me, but why do I feel
this party's over?
