Nope won't attend unless I'm in town. Don't know how old you are but most of us have Facebook anyways so it's not like I don't know what they look like or know what's going on in their life. When I visit home I visit the people I miss, I don't miss everyone from college.
I went to my twentieth a long time ago and practically the only ones there were people who never left the town after graduation. Since I was in the military and had travelled around the world they asked a lot of questions about different places as they got drunk. After a while too many of them were melancholy about having never left home and were drowning their regrets in more alcohol. It was really pathetic. Maybe I'll go back next summer for the 40th, but I doubt it.
Went to my 5 year last year. There was only a fraction of us there and every one of them I see weekly anyways. Keeping in mind my graduating class was 42.
^^^this ... I was friends with everyone in school...I kind of protected the ones that got picked on and I made one or two solid enemies because of it ..if I saw them at a reunion and they started crap, I would be in jail ...I do not need that headache...and like others said ...what is the point?
Never officialy been to one of mine and graduated in 88. I was at the venue when we had the 5th but I was with a friend in the bar but never went to the reception area. Hated high school and to be honest, most of my close friends were in a different school. There were a few I hung out with but not that many. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk
Went to the 5 year it was just a big drunk fest. Never went to anymore after that, I don't see the point with facebook.
I haven't and probably won't. It's a far drive during our busy summers and I already keep in touch with those I wish to see.
I went to my 10th last year. It was a blast. There were several people that I hadn't really seen since graduation that I was excited about catching up with. Yeah...I guess I could just talk to them on FB, but it is always more enjoyable to do it in person. Never understood why people hate on HS reunions.
I went to my 20 year last year. It was nice to catch up with a few people I hadn't seen since high school. Other than that, it was a lot of standing around, drinking and socializing with people I barely know
My ten year past already and I didnt hear of any info on it at all so f em Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
Skipped the 5, 10 and 20 year reunions. I'll also be skipping 30 or whatever other year they're planning. Think the 20th a few years ago would have been like $250 to attend. No thanks, I keep up with most I feel like seeing through the year
Haven't been to any of mine. Like many have said I know all I need to know and communicate with who is worth talking to on Facebook.
Yeah, I wouldn't have paid $250 either. We met at a winery for dinner then had a BYOB at a classmates cabin. Sometimes it pays to be redneck.
Because I have SOOO many people that are important in my life now .... those from High school that are, I still see ...those that aren't, I could give a flip about their lives just like they could give a flip about mine.. time is precious ...and most reunions are gossip fests..."Did you see how fat so and so got?" "Did you see how bald so and so got" "Did you hear so and so cheated on so nad so with so and so?" No thanks
the last one I was able to watch the list of evites who was attending and not attending. I was seriously debating going but as I watch the list I realized it wasn't my crowd that was attending. Had a pretty big graduating class, probably near 250'ish and I didn't attend the school system through my entire schooling. There were a lot of people I never met, some I never wanted to and quite a few that I did but weren't attending. 200-250 per head to stand around in an awkward environment wasn't my cup of tea.
I still live in the same town that I graduated high school from.. I go to every other one just to catch up with friends who moved away...
It's 1 night. Mine wasn't like that at all. Most of my old friends are pretty spread out and it is quite rare for all of us to get together, especially now that we all have kids. I'm kinda hoping we have a 15 year just so we can get everyone together back home again. I guess I could see someone not going if they never left home and live in a small town where they see everyone all the time.
