Other "cons":
– High school/hometown over 1,200 miles away (really the main reason I haven't gone)
– I went to 4 dift high schools (one only for a week so that barely counts), obv I would go to reunion of one I graduated from but I would like to see a few people from each, it's weird how fragmented my life was back then when I think about it

Other "pros":
– Would be nice to apologize to some people
– Would be cool to see who else quit being Mormon

I would defs go to a reunion of my grad program in 5-10 years if/when one happens though, no matter the travel expense, they are all The Best and it's small enough I know everyone.

a lot of people that were awful in high school grow up a lot afterward and turn out to be pretty cool

yeah but now i can use facebook to find out, e.g., that the token super-conservative from my first high school is now a liberal who supports occupy wall street—i still wouldn't really want to talk to her

Went to my 30th in July -- not traumatic or anything, but nowhere near fun enough to ever do again.

here's the thing. i am doing thanksgiving at my boyfriend's which is roughly 3 hours away from the reunion (like 3 trains). and the reunion is the day after thanksgiving.

so it's like do i make all the effort to get there? it's one thing when you're going WITH people.

i feel like i will soooo not want to move the morning after thanksgiving, let alone take 3 trains.

solve my life, please. thanks!

I only ever went to my 20th. I'm not sure my classmates ever got organized enough to do more than that one anyway. My graduating class was ~500 kids.

Holy shit! Next year would be my 40th reunion! If anyone cares enough to make it happen, that is.

seven months pass...

My 20th is set for September. I just looked at the facebook page for it and found out they don't even have my correct name on the student list, so wtf. I'm still in touch with most of the people from high school I want to be in touch with anyway, so I don't have a burning desire to go back and socialize with people I've forgotten. (Was sad to find out that at least three people had died—one of whom was murdered.)

one year passes...

god help me ive been thinking about my 10th hs reunion coming this year A LOT more than i thought i would. i think it would be a genuine surprise for me since ive been off facebook for a few years and legit lost touch with nearly everyone i went to hs with (graduating class of~700).

or maybe i am a glutton for punishment.
