Me going to a high school rerun is a waste of time. Not because reruns are, but because I'm forever stuck with, "which one?" I went to three different high schools in three different states, and even for the one I went to for two whole years, they were my freshman and junior year, so might as well consider it four high schools.
And college was big enough that even if they divided up reunions by majors, there were 7000 students in my major for my year. Add to that, my friends didn't have the same major, nor were they the same year I was, so that would be visiting a bunch of people I don't know.
Would like to know what became of Danny though. Only guy in the Communications class who got an A on that grammar test, (Communications and half of us failed it -- twice! lol) We dated for a couple of months, but he was the guy who got along with everyone, and ran the student events, so had dinner with everyone from Timothy Leary, to Vincent Bugliosi, to Kool, AND the Gang. lol What did be become after college? Struck me as the guy who would end up running Madison Square Garden or being a CEO of a Blue Chip company. Unfortunately, I can't remember his last name.
That said, I have "reunioned" with old classmates and roommates.
Still, I think it might do you good to go, OR if not go, look up old classmates and have a mini-reunion. First of all, the biggest change of personality takes place between 18-25. It really is. At 18 we are cock-sure we have everything figured out, and we are the smartest people in the world. Everyone should learn from us how to live. There is an old joke that is funny because it is true. "At 18, I couldn't believe how naive and stupid my parents were. How had they survived all these years? At 22, I couldn't believe how smart and wise they'd become." Your classmates aren't as stuck on themselves as you remember. You probably remember accurately, but they changed, just like you have.
Second, I was in your shoes. When I went to high school, being perpetual new-girl made each year become the same thing. No friends the beginning of the year, and only 2-3 by end of year. Plus, you know my personality still. I don't make a great first impression, so it took me half a year to make a friend. We weren't good friends until springtime. High school was hell until spring. Not really a confidence builder in that sentence. BUT those who became friends are worth seeing again. (Really fun at my age, because we're the grannies laughing at how the grandkids are making the same goofs we made and they don't even know they are goofing. lol)
You had a couple of friends in high school. Contact them to see if they're going. If they are, go together. It's great catching up. And, if they're not? Well, then set up a get-together with just them. Life goes by fast. It's good to find out you're not the only one who is surviving it, out of all the people you ever knew. And, they tend to be a lot of fun, because you have one thing in common -- you liked each other.
