Continuing Down Memory Lane

So now that I'm beginning to reconnect with fellow high school alumni through Facebook, I have been pouring over my yearbook reliving people and events from the past. One of the most repeated lines written to me by friends is ~ "don't ever forget ..." Sadly, I have forgotten most of what they admonished me not to forget. I wish they had been more specific. It would help trigger memories.

And after not even thinking about some of these people in a gazillion years, I actually had dreams about a few of the "boys" last night. Oh yeah, I finally got to first base with some of the hot guys who thought of me as their "friend" in high school when I certainly wanted to be more than that.

What is it with high school? Why does that short span of time continue to evoke both positive and negative emotions after all these years?
