[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 86404, member: 2211"] Jane, I can totally relate! I have the worst memories of HS and have absolutely no desire to revisit that time in my life AT ALL. I've been contacted over the years for the reunions and while it was nice to play catch up with the few I actually do have fond memories of, I still didn't find myself interested in attending, especially at $100/couple, $75/single. And I would have made H join me only to hide behind him, so what would be the point? I would, however, love to go as a fly on the wall...just to see what happened to some of the snooty snobs I went to school with! I grew up in a divided town and, you guessed it, I was on the middle class side of town and our school was in the heart of Snob Hill (lots of new money). It was hard growing up in the 70's, early 80's when everything designer (read: Gucci, Jordache, Gloria Vanderbilt, ugh) was just going crazy, yet our side of town were more Levi's and T-shirt people, you know? I graduated in 81 and the last reunion was the 20 year (they tried for a 25 but didn't get a big response) and I was able to reconnect with an old friend and we've kept in contact. She sent me her copy of the yearbook because mine was damaged in an accident. It was great to see the old photos. What struck me as ironic is that all the kids who were in your face and the 'it' people were the same ones planning the reunions. That can't be coincidence! Sorry your experience was so crummy. Now you know. Hugs~ [/QUOTE]
