Lets play a game...
And take a trip down memory lane. (Inspired from my cousin talking about his high school reunion)
Class of '94
Mascot: Big Blue
Colors: Blue and Gold
Best memory was Junior year English class. I sat behind a guy, with bright blue eyes and a mullet of curly brown hair, that I was too shy to talk to. I had no idea that I would run into him 5 years later and that he would become the love of my life.
I graduated in 2012 and I don't remember the mascot or colors, I was only at the school I graduated at for my senior year. The school I was at the first three years was the Viking and purple and white colors.
I think the memory I loved the most about my senior year was prom. A couple months prior to it I had some really hard times that sent me to the mental hospital twice. Some good friends helped me get out of my slump. We rented a hotel, when to a Japanese restaurant to eat where they cook for food in front of you, and I danced for the first time in public at the prom. I also looked pretty hot lol
Graduated in 1997
Mascot: Indian
School colors: blue and grey
Saddest memory was when I was walking to school with friends in the morning we found out by another friend that one of my close friends got hit and killed by a train that night. He was supposedly on his way to my house to see my brother and I. He was also wearing one of my sweat shirts. Still don't know if it was freak accident or suicide. I'm pushing twords suicide, he had some issue with drugs and what not. Everytime I see or hear a train here it still gives me chills
1999
We didn't have colors or a mascot as I went to a continuation school (basically the "bad kids" school. We weren't allowed to use the restroom without an escort)
I wasn't a bad kid, regular highschool made my life hell. I was duct taped to a flag pole and beat up for supposedly being a lesbian.
2003.
Indians.
Kelly green & white.
Best memory from senior year was our senior breakfast. Just sitting together with all 200+ of my classmates, congratulating each other, and co-mingling instead of sticking to our usual groups was pretty cool. A close second is when we got together as a class and guarded our high school all night before our crosstown rivalry game! We played pranks on our rivals, half of us drove around town and TP'd the houses of the starters on their team, and it was great! Ahhhh youth.
2002, Rams, navy, light blue and white. I can't pinpoint a best memory. Swim team was my favorite part of high school. Spanish camp was interesting and I had something silly happen. I tripped while we were doing a scavenger hunt and tore up my knee. Problem was we were only allowed to speak Spanish and I was awful at it so I had a very difficult time explaining what happened.
I have two schools I consider my graduating school. I lived 10 years in Minnesota.
Graduated 2008
Mascot: Sabers
Colors: Black, white, and red
Memories: Doing the Diversity Talent Show
Only I ended up moving down south to Oklahoma (which is where I'm from) a month before I was supposed to graduate with them. Btw it was really hard because Minnesota graduates in June and Oklahoma graduates in May. So I had to get my Minnesota school to hurry (they moving so slow) and send my transcripts down to my current school. After having to call them myself after a few days has gone by and tell them I refuse to do summer school because they want to lolligag around with my paperwork, they finally sent it and I graduated within 5 days!!
Graduation still May 2008
Mascot: Bears
Colors: Red, White, and Blue
Memories: Didn't really have any, but I pretty much skipped the last few days of school and went to the mall with the other students in my class. Lol graduation class of 67 students and half of them were my cousins. So yes I'll probably be going to both 10 year class reunions next year because I have been invited to both. ?
Reading the beginning of this I was thinking I'd sound too young having graduated in 2013 to be reminiscing about high school already lmao but it seems like a lot of us are around the same age! I don't remember mascot I think it was an owl I dunno and green and white were the colors.
2006
Cobras (orange & black)
Embarrassing Memory: skipping school one day to hang out with my loser boyfriend only to find out his ass was cheating!! Apparently another girl skipped school too that day and was knocking on the window for him to let her in. She didn't know his "main chick" (me) was inside ???? So glad I dumped that bum!
2003 and we were th Bulldogs. Our colors were blue and white. My best memory was performing solo at the university seniors and graduate student recital. I was a high school junior and my voice teacher (a professor) invited me. I was the only performer there not an upper class man at the university. I was a little intimidated but it went well.
I graduated in 2010, top 5% of my class. Mascot was the wildcat, red and black! I was a cheerleader. Probably the most embarrassing high school event was when I was cheering and as captain, I call out the cheers. One time I completely changed the mascot name of the other team and didn't realize until we were done. So, I said beat the Knights, when it should have been shamrocks. ? I laughed it off but so embarrassing. Then, one time I called out a chant and did the motions for a completely different one, while saying the words for the chant I called. My girls were so confused. ? I didn't realize until I looked over and my friend was like wtf you doing. ??? I loved cheering, but I'm glad it's behind me now.
I went to an online high school. So there was no mascot.
I can say my middle school one?
My mascot was the Sun Devil's.
Our colors were red white and black.
But I graduated highschool in 2016.
(I'm only 19! I'm young!)
My most embarrassing moment was choking on a chicken nugget in middle school during lunch, and having to have my vice principal use the Heimlich maneuver on me. And then get taken away in an ambulance.
Another thing happened in 8th grade that was embarrassing. Little back story, I use to wear huge jackets constantly (even in 100° weather in California.) I did it to hide my boobs. I had triple Es at 14 years old. (No one but a few of my girl friends knew I had huge tits) Well one day in gym class it was like 105° and I passed out from heat stroke. My guy gym teacher had to take my jacket off in front of everyone and my boob slipped out of my tank top... ?
I skipped school for like a week afterwards....
Class of 2008
Eagles
Blue, white, silver, and black (yeah we had 4 colors, a little excessive)
My best memory was winning a national track & field title with my teammates who were also my best friends. ✊? We got so many gifts and everyone was so excited when we got back home. Our school pulled us out of class one day afterwards because they had set up a catered luncheon for us with the principles where we got even more awards. It was awesome
