Did any of you look back at your high school yearbook after many years?

And read all the stuff from people who wrote lengthy treatises signing it? And realize you don't even remember who some of those people are?

1. I just saw my senior book yesterday,

no one signed it. I have never gone to a reunion, and the 25th is coming up in a couple of years.

I would not recognize anyone from my school if they kicked me in the ass.

7. my 25th was this year

but we did not have one as far as I know. I am 500 miles and two states away from my hometown. The other day I was working on my job and this girl walks by. I look at her and think "that looks like X" a girl I went to high school with. Sure enough, it was. Of course, she was someone I only knew by name and by sight. It was not like we had ever spoken before. Ironically enough, I had gone to graduate school with her much older brother too. So that is for the small world file.

2. Nobody who signed my yearbook wrote lengthy treatises

Most of them, I think, were pretty much "pity signatures". :rofl:

6. I would not even know how to post them!!

They are from the boring 1980s anyway- I love looking at the asthetics in 50's, 60's & 70's photos.

8. I believe it was Stephen King who wrote

that people come in and out of our lives like busboys at a restaraunt.

As for me, I skipped my 10th reunion when I realized there were only three people I cared to see, and they were on the "no contact info" list.

But I guess that's better than being Al "I scored four touchdowns in one game" Bundy.

11. I recently pulled mine out...

Looking at the pictures of my school, the kids that went there with me and the events that went on that year really brought back a bunch of memories. I'd do it all over again, let me tell ya! Seems like it was just yesterday when I was walking the halls of Hillcrest High in Springfield! Oh, to be 18 again! (I graduated in 1985)

I bet they were hilarious at the time.
