Class of 1986

My 20 year class reunion is this weekend.

Where in the hell did the time go?

It's been 20 years?

Naw, it couldn't be!

That would make me close to pushing 40, and that is just not possible.

Is it?

One day you're finally turning 21, the next you are two steps closer to 40!

Oh, all right! It's true, there's no use in trying to deny it. I just can't believe that it has been that long since high school.

I was thinking of going, since I didn't quite make it to graduation, having dropped out in '84, my sophomore year. Then just said 'eff it, why in the hell bother. I just couldn't see spending $99 to see a whole bunch of people who most likely wouldn't even remember me.

Our sophomore year was the year that all of us Pacific High Vikings had to now attend our rival, San Leandro High. The city, or who-the-hell-ever, decided to close our high school. I hardly knew any of the SLH kids from that year. Plus I was hardly ever at school as it was. Not to mention the fact that they want $99 a ticket to attend the reunion!

For some reason Romy and Michele's Class Reunion is now flashing through my head. I think I'd prefer Grosse Pointe Blank.
