Two More Months...

And its officially my high school 10-year reunion. I can't believe how time has flown by. It still feels like I just graduated. Its amazing how much my life has changed just within the past decade. Back in 2001, I was an 18 year old single college student working at a department store, shopping and going to the movies weekly with friends, not really caring about anything, just living in the moment. Now, flash forward to ten years later, I'm now 28 years old, married with 2 kids as a stay at home mom and wife, trying to save as much money as possible to move out of my parents house and buy another house since ours was foreclosed 3 years ago, and caring about my family.

There's a lot of little things in between those years, good and bad. I can't wait to go, see some of my old classmates. Plus, I hope its a lot fun and I can't also wait to take pictures. Plus its good thing I signed up for paypal because that's where we have to order our tickets :)

Did you go to any high school reunions and did you enjoy it?

Thanks for posting to Point Taken. Have a great day!

My 10 year reunion was last year. Many of the members of my high school are still in the area and we're all very active with local sports so I've seen a few of them at different running events over the past 2 years. It was fun to see everyone-I went to private school so it was a small class. With only 76 in my graduating class, we all knew each other.

Wow, your graduating class was basically the size of a regular English class at my school lol. We had over 600 in our graduating class. I've only seen maybe, 4 students (and 4, out of the 2 our my closest friends lol) since then :)

Nope never went to one, not sure we had on at 10 years. I hope you have a good time.

Thank you, DarkBeauty. I still have a few more months to plan a few things for the event :)

I graduated in 2002. I don't think it would really matter about my high school reunion. I had to transfer through 10 different schools and finished my last one within 3 months worth. But I wouldn't mind seeing my old friends again.

Audrey A. Jul 25, 2011, 8:27pm UTC

Wow, that's a lot of schools. I guess you can always have mini reunions with friends :)

I choose not to go to reunions.

Audrey A. Jul 25, 2011, 10:11pm UTC

Reunions aren't for everyone :)

No I have never gone to one and I have been out of high school for 35 years, the people I want to see I still do.

Audrey A. Jul 25, 2011, 10:13pm UTC

Maybe someday you'll meet up with some of your old classmates :)

Wow... I graduated in 2001 as well. I have 2 kids and am also a stay at home mom. I graduated June 9th 2001 and our 10 year reunion is going to be August 20th 2011. My husband and I graduated together. I was dreading going knowing he would be there and bug me. But now that hes dead I dont really even want to go because its just a reminder how much has changed since how school. My friend Lisa is going with me to my reunion. I'm just not really looking forward to going at all.

Another 2001 graduate! I graduated May 15, 2001 and my reunion is September 13-14 (its a 2-day event with Friday being a family day at the homecoming game and Saturday is at a restaurant with just the classmates). Even though I didn't have many friends back then, I still would like to see a few of them. I know if I don't go, I'm going to regret it. I know it must be hard to go to yours due to your husband's death. But think of all the good times you've shared with him and your friends during those years. You have your friend for support when you go to yours :)
