Wanna Feel really old....?

Recommended Posts

OK so I get talked into joining facebook. Being told its more for finding and catching up with old friends unlike myspace which is more for current friends.
Big mistake, I didnt really feel old til I searched up my old graduating class and saw the pictures. I have found myself very depressed knowing I am "that" old. I really wanted to remember those folks as they were. ouch

My high school class had a Facebook group for our 20th reunion (which I didn't attend). Looking at the photos, I maintain that only *they* are 20 years older than when we graduated, not me. :D

I only recently found a few classmates from my high school class of '86 on Facebook, and I feel the same way you do. I've aged slowly and am still in fairly good physical shape. At my 10 year reunion, I found a lot of the popular girls fat and ugly, the jocks bald and pot bellied, and some of the less popular crowd had turned out pretty good! Man I wish I hadn't missed my 20th reunion a couple years ago. Could have had some fun... :D

Understand that if I could, like some sort of vampire kill 38 year olds to regain that age, I would do it in a heartbeat.

No offense.

I've still got another 15 years till I'm up for a 20 year anniversary

And my next "zeroes" HS reunion will be my 40th :)

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Erin attended my 20th with me last year, and really did make me feel younger than the rest of those people. :D

Mine too! Ah, class of '72...

In a coincidence, I ended up teaching in the same high school as my prom date, and she retired last year after a 30 year teaching career. That makes me feel older, somehow.

We went to my 20th a couple of years ago and I literally went into the room, looked around and left to go find the right room. Now I know I'm not young looking anymore but damn some of those people looked OOOOld.



Here's clue on my 40th. I was the youngest looking one there with one notable exception...the head cheerleader I dated for (unfortunately) a very short time.

I'm in the pic of the 1967 people, she is in the zebra stripes in the 1968 pic.

:D:D
Yes, "youngest looking one there" was a looooong stretch.

My first love is in the 1967 pic, first standing row, third from the right with the grey (gasp!) hair
My reality and yours are quite different.
