There's nothing like a high school reunion to remind you of all the akward years of growing up. Unfortunately, I won't be able to attend the Kitsilano Grad '96 10 year high school reunion (Go Blue Demons!).....I would have really liked to see everybody and relive high school if only for one night.
Just reading the guest list brings back so many memories. There really isn't another period in your life where you have so many memories than those years where you're trying to figure everything out. Or maybe, it's only me. Maybe everybody else had everything figured out all along? Geez. Then I must have really stood out as the geeky awkward one. I sure did feel like one. I don't ever remember feeling as self-concious as I did when I was in Kits. It's also funny how there are different moments that flash into my memory about different people. I'll spare you all the details but there are certainly moments in high school that I dwell on for reasons unknown even to myself.
It's funny how we're now supposedly grown up but I really do feel like the same person I was when I was 16...we just now have more responsibilities. Mortgage, job, husband, kid....
What would you have done differently if you were to relive your high school years all over again?
