I didn't have a car in high school. But we lived right next door to the school so I didn't need one.
4. It's Friday night...where are you?
Out with my friends, or on a date, usually. Maybe babysitting.
5. Were you a party animal?
I went to parties, yes, but I wasn't particularly wild.
6. Were you considered a flirt?
Probably not. I socialized comfortably in my own circle, but I've never gotten the hang of flirting.
7. Were you in band, orchestra, or choir?
Nope. I thought band was totally dorky, and the Folk Club was full of very straight girls I had no interest in hanging out with. (By "straight" I mean conventional, mainstream. I was still straight in the orientation sense.)
I did take guitar lessons outside of school, though.
8. Were you a nerd?
I wasn't what we would now call a "geek", but some kids probably thought I was nerdy. I wasn't "cool". In my later high school years, I got into the hippie/freak crowd, after seeing the Woodstock movie. :)
9. Did you get suspended/expelled?
Nope, I didn't get into trouble.
10. Can you sing the fight song?
What the hell is a "fight song"?
11. Who were your favorite teachers?
My 10th grade biology teacher - he changed my life. Totally inspired me.
12. Where did you sit during lunch?
Either in the cafeteria with friends, or in the classroom of above-mentioned biology teacher. He was very popular and his classroom had become a hangout.
13. What was your school's full name?
<mbfffmmmbvvvft> (That's me muffling my answer. Because I've probably got it on file at a bank somewhere as a security question!)
14. School mascot?
Bulldogs. Eh...
15. Homecoming court?
I don't follow the question. Did we have a homecoming court? Probably. I didn't pay attention to these things.
16. If you could go back and do it again, would you?
Only if I could do it differently. :)
17. What do you remember most about graduation?
That it poured buckets on our ceremony and we had to run inside and finish it in the auditorium.
18. Where did you go senior skip day?
I had a whole lot of senior skip days... I didn't even know there was an official one.
19. Have you gained some weight since then?
Yep, I've pretty much doubled in size.
20. Who was your Senior prom date?
I didn't go to either senior or junior prom. Remember, I was a hippie/freak. :) We looked down on such things.
21. Are you planning on going to your 10-year reunion?
So, time travel has been invented after all? (See question 16.) I just skipped my 35th reunion in 2007, never went to any of the others, either.
22. Who was your home room teacher?
I had a different one every year. Home room was not a memorable part of the day, though, so I don't remember who they were.
23. Who will repost?
What does this mean?
24. Did you play any sports?
Nope. I'm terrible at all sports requiring coordination. I rode my bike a whole lot, though, does that count?
25. Do you still talk to people from school?
Not any more. I did keep in touch with several high school friends for about 20 years, but after I moved 3000 miles away, I lost touch with them.
