My 50th High School Reunion: Reasons Not to Attend - Upon Further Review
I will not know anyone.
Response: There will be name tags that include your House (Azure, Green, Red, Yellow). You will probably remember more people than you think from a class of 1,200. We are in same boat – not knowing who will attend. Follow-up: Didn’t Matter - everyone was gracious and happy to see each other.I don’t look like I did in high school.
Response: Spoiler alert - no one does and no one cares. Follow-up: We were right. We have all changed.I just remember that everyone was in a clique, I wasn’t or didn’t like kids in cliques.
Response: That was 50 years ago. We were teenagers trying to figure things out. You probably have a lot more in common today than you think. Follow Up - We were right. Everyone wanted to know what you have been up to for 50 years, not who you hanged with in 12th grade. We all met new friends.I don’t want to share things about my life.
Response: Then don’t. We are getting together for a few hours to celebrate having gone to school together (many of us from elementary school to high school) and we are still here.Follow-up - Everyone wanted to know - Folks did share their journeys. We learned alot about our classmates.
