Question: Mine's finally being planned...for August...
Answers: Mine's finally being planned...for August...
Go, Mood Indigo, you have too much to offer to deprive them by not going. There just might be that one person you have a "divine appointment" to see and to help.
I didn't even go. That was 2 years ago. $80 tickets!! Goddamn!!!
I looked forward to not going. Turns out, only 10 people showed up anyway.
If you've done something with your life or are curious to see what others have done with theirs, then you can look forward to it.
If not, then no.
Seeing as I did all I could to graduate early, I think it goes without saying that I will not make an appearance.
I think they're pretty outdated, anyway.
It depends on how popular you were in school and how well you've done in life since.
If both are positive then you're good to go.
But if not, I suggest staying away.
something to dread
I enjoyed my 10-year because it seemed at that point the clique-ish behavior had finally gone by the wayside and it was more about really caring what people you weren't friendly with had done with their lives.
The 20 was my favorite to date and I'm hitting 25 this yr. Have fun!
I didn't go to mine, as it turned out the only people who went where the ones who still leave in the same small town.
No one who had moved away bothered to go.
Lucky me, I saved the money and can see any of those people anytime I go visit my parents
Only if you can rub in everyone's face how good you look and how happy you are with your life. Otherwise, skip the reunion and treat yourself to a "me" day.
mine is next year, I don't know if I'm going. I didn't really enjoy drinking and carrying on with those guys when I was in HS, and many haven't moved on from those days. the whole thing holds little fascination for me.
Look forward to it! You'll be surprised at how different the lives are of many people you knew. At mine many were still in college/grad school, some owned companies, some had many children, some were married, some already divorced, some still looked young, some looked really old, quite a few hooked up. One clown showed up with a rent-a-date (not recommended!)
Personally, I wouldn't even go. It wouldn't be worth it to me. In high school I was an outcast and didn't really have any friends so I see no point in going.
Depends on what you did since high school. If you peaked in high school and haven't really accomplished much since, I would not be looking forward to it. But if you want to catch up with people that you maybe haven't seen in a while, it could be fun. I hear there are some schools that do 5-year reunions...that seems a little pointless. It's been 5 years since I graduated high school and I still have almost my whole graduating class in my cell phone! So yeah, I pretty much know what everyone's been up to. But 10 years should be fun, especially if you've moved away from your hometown and really haven't seen anyone in a while. I think they have open bars too, which is pretty much a good reason to go to anything.
I wouldn't dread it, but I wouldn't go anyway.
High school was great for me but I've only talked to three of my mates in 10 years. I really don't want to see all those people again.
my former class is too spread all over the country or even abroad... we don't keep in touch. but I don't think I'd go... I didn't like high school too much and I have no idea if I have anything in common with those people anymore...
dreaded. can you believe they still have the cliques?
Main thing is there is no obligation to go. If you are attracted to it, then go for it. There are no rules that apply to you in this case.
no not really
