Would You Go to Your High School Class Reunion?
Not just no, but H E L L NO!

The one person I would want to see from back then I still see. I spent Christmas with her family.

I didn't care much for the rest of them back then. I doubt I'd care about them now. My high school years are a huge coal black dark time in my life. We had daily riots my junior and senior years. I was a socially awkward outcast. Let's not forget I was the daughter of the town drunk and all the demeaning shyte that went with that. I didn't even go to my high school graduation. By then I was working and just wanted to get out of the f'ing place.

I do have one post-graduation story that's sort of funny in a bitter way. I took all sorts of deridement in high school over the fact that I planned to attend a state school. I knew I was going to have to pay for it myself and state school was what I could afford. The others looked down on me because they were going to attend Ivy league or Big Ten schools or the naval academy. A few years later, while busting my hump to get through state college I found out the snobs either flunked out or got kicked out of the big name schools. I'm wicked enough that I got a chuckle out of it.

For those of you who have gone and enjoyed it. Good for you. My not wanting to go isn't about holding grudges. It's that I didn't like those people back then. Why would I like them now?

@ the OP. Regardless, what the rest of us say, if you want to go, then go. If you don't want to, stay home and do something you enjoy.
