I think it's really cool though when you have a great feeling about HS and want to go back to visit old friends Come to think of it, DH and I and all our kids graduated from the same HS and none of us have an interest in the reunions. Must be something about the HS or maybe it's the DNA
Originally Posted By Mr X Well, I'm not going to my reunion unless they decide to move it to Asia somewhere. I doubt anyone would remember me anyway, I was definitely NOT interested in high school and my mind was on other things (music, mostly...and of course the usual ). I had a tiny circle of fellow slacker friends, but we weren't all that close. A college reunion would be fun though. I've caught up with a TON of those folks on Facebook (if I'm ever in the neighborhood, I wouldn't mind that at all!). As for "class of 75" (seems to keep popping up), I belong to that class. Why, you ask? Why, because I am in the DISNEY class of 75..as in I first visited WDW back in good old 1975!

Sorry Mr. X, but I love being the age I am and I'll love the next year too. And yes I have been accused of channeling Pollyanna.
Originally Posted By RockyMtnMinnie Hmmmmm Even more depressing. I didn't even realize that I graduated from high school 20 years ago this month as well, until I read this topic.

Originally Posted By piperlynne Yeah, I just had the "OMG, my 20 year reunion is next year" moment a few days ago. LOL. No particular plans to go. The way I look at it. I talk to the people I would want to talk to. I don't know. I had a great time in HS. But even being on facebook, people popping up that I vaguely remember, but can't really recall saying more than a handful of words to, wanting to add me. Reunions and that type of thing seem rather spurious. Geez, I'm cynical. Well not really. I get the concept. But really, I lost touch with these people because they weren't important enough to me to keep contact with them.

Originally Posted By A Happy Haunt I never went to a reunion either! Why bother, anyone I was really close with a still stay in touch with. Class of '86! Which is also a big hair & mullet fest! I even drove a red Camaro!
Originally Posted By KCCHIEF class of 76.......no reunions for me. I have some close friends still.....but, not into reunions. I did like high school.......but, only the socializing part.
Originally Posted By Disney_Binky I just went to my 10 year reunion, it was interesting. I was friends with a lot of people in HS but only a few REALLY good friends. It was interesting that some of the mean, cruel people turned into bad individuals. There was even a teacher I disliked through HS actually came as well. That teacher told me, my freshman year, that I would never amount to anything... It really hurt my feelings, OH but look at me now, I'm a Nurse! Will I help that so called Teacher when he's on his Death bed.... Nope!
Originally Posted By beamerdog Class of '66 here. We've only had one reunion early on. I suspect that everyone was too stoned out at the time to know who the heck was in their class. Actually, I'd like a reunion now to see all the cute guys who are now, well, over the hill and on the 2nd or 3rd marriage to some gorgeous young thang. I always had a crush on the prez of the class. Wondering what he's doing now...

Originally Posted By alexbook Class of 78 here. I've thought about going to the reunions, but I always wimp out. Part of it's money: Our reunion committee always rents a hotel ballroom and charges admission, and I'm too cheap to pay. (Plus I don't own a suit, and they don't seem like come-as-you-are events.)
