Everyone seemed exactly the same. I mean alot of them had heard rumors about what happened to me in Iraq, but it was bothersome that that was the first thing everyone asked me. I had to tell the same old un-detailed story over and over again. But after that was over it was a great time. We played some beer pong, sat around and caught up. Me and all my close friends from high school then left and headed to my buddies place. I had to drive so I didn't really drink to much, but we all watched old high school football films and what not. Then we talked some more, and talked and talked and talked.
It was a pretty special thing for me. I never knew I missed the simple times of high school so much. Once you have bills, marriages, ect. life gets more complicated and you really realize that even though you thought it was a hard and stressful time growing up, you had it made. Being and adult sucks compared to high school.
Another thing I must admit is this. While in highschool I thought I knew it all, and that I had all the answers. The moment I knew I was growing up, and really becoming wise, was when I realized I have hardly any answers and I definitely didn't know shit.
Just a little insight for the youngins. Adults may be wrong about a lot, but the one thing they are not wrong about is how little all you young whippersnappers know. I am telling you. The moment you realize you don't know shit is the moment you start to grow up. At least that is how it was with me.
Any other high school graduates have "reunions"?
