High School Memories

I thought this would be fun. I've listed a few things about me from high school. I loved going to school, it was my sanctuary. I was a sponge, I still am. I loved learning!
 
I'm hoping you will list a few things you remember from high school too.
Okay here goes....

 I didn't belong to any one particular group of friends. I was friends with everyone. The brains, the jocks, the parking lot crew, the quiet ones, the loud ones, the artists and the theater crowd.

 I took college courses while in high school.

 I created artwork for the school magazine.

 I never bought lunch from the cafeteria.

 I used to speak French, Spanish and Turkish

 I loved classic films and jazz music


I  took extra credit courses during the summer. One year I spent three weeks recording deer droppings for the wildlife resources department!



Yes that's my high school graduation photo! Okay now its your turn!

Beautiful photo and see, I was right, you ARE clever. Unfortunately, I don't look back on my school days so fondly, and find that I have learnt much more since leaving school than I ever did in it!!

High school was okay for me. I was mostly a wallflower.

Fun post! I enjoyed learning more about you! There would be NO WAY I would post my high school picture. Yours is lovely though!

Nice photo. It looks familiar. I graduated around the same time! I was on the basketball team, in the honor society, and took nursing. I also was in with the popular crowd, even though I didn't do a lot of the things, or go a lot of the places they did. I 'had it like that'....personality! LOL Although the first part of High School I spent looking at my shoes...deathly shy!...Great post!

Guess this means you've "always" had it "goin' on". I'm not the least bit familiar with that. LOL!

What a cute photo! My high school pics aren't nearly so gorgeous!

No doubt why the popular guys were asking you out Katie. You were and still are a beautiful woman with a very lucky husband. I also enjoyed the post from back in 09.
Like Thisisme my desire for knowledge came after high school & I love watching documentaries and game shows that challenge my mind like Jeopard & Wheel of Fortune. I was very quiet in school & didn't even start dating until my junior year and then only because my best friend pushed me into it and even found me the blind date. I rode my bicycle into town which was about 1 mile to see my first movie at a walk in theater. Cost me 50 cents to see Yul Brenner in The Magnificent Seven. I still love that movie.

Well..first of all, I certainly didn't even come close to looking like that in high school..nor did I accomplish all that much. I spent it daydreaming of when I could get out and start my life.
My Senior picture was hidious!
High school was not my days of glory..I guess you could say mine came later. :)
This was just the cutest post...and..I love the button you made for Desiree! Simply beautiful!!

Congratulations on your 1500 followers! That's fantastic! :)

Oh..wait...there is something. I had the cutest, best looking guy in school and that's the honest truth. I had him for 43 years. This was the best thing about high school. Meeting him.

Your photo is beautiful! I didn't belong to any particular group either and had a lot of friends from all "crowds". I loved school and learning and wish there was a way I could make a living by taking classes now. Of course they'd have to only be what I am interested in. ;-)

Lovely picture, and that's very interesting about not being a part of any particular crowd. I prided myself on the same thing, still do. I like being friends with a variety of people with different interests.

I think bloggers tend to do that, or at least the ones I know do.
