High School Tag

1. Did you date someone from your school? I dated a lot of guys back in the day. But never for very long! I got bored easily.

2. What kind of car did you drive? Silvia...my 94 Honda Accord!! This is the only car I actually cried when I got rid of it!

3. Were you a party animal? No. But we did have a lot of fun doing other crazy things like Mullet hunting and drive throughs. Dont ask...you dont want to know.

4. Were you considered a flirt? Probably.

5. Were you in band, orchestra or choir? I played band first semester of my freshman year but quit because the band room was like below zero degrees that I couldnt feel my fingers, and the fat band teacher was always sweating all over the front row...which was flutes. Food for thought...I played flute!! Nothing more needs to be said!

6. What was your most embarrassing moment in high school? Me and Marlee were just talking about this the other night! I ran track and when I was a sophmore I had to run first heat in a big regional meet because the top 300 meter hurdler was not there...and well I was doing great and in second place, on pace for qualifying for state....before I caught my trail foot on the hurdle (that weighed more than me) and I ate dirt, or rubber, right in front of the stands. When you hear the stands cheer...then go..."OWWW" never a good thing! I still finished with a PR for that season, even with a fall on the face and getting up again...I guess I matched whoever I was running against.

7. Were you a nerd? No. I played lots and lots of sports...do nerds play sports?

8. Were you on varsity teams? Basketball, Volleyball, and Track.

9. Did you ever get suspended/expelled? No way. My principal loved me and my dad worked there too, so if I was late I would make a trip by his office for a pass, and for him to get me snacks out of the vending machines in the teacher's lounge...and if he wasnt around I would have Mark or Carlos the security guards get me some. And they told me to hide under the table so the female security guards (which were NOT ever cool) wouldnt see me when they walked through the cafeteria. haha. They were the coolest, I never got caught in Tardy sweep...even though I should have....MULTIPLE times.

10. Can you still sing the fight song? ....ha...Did I ever even know the fight song?? Nope!

11. Who were your favorite teachers? The Mansours!! My senior year I had a bunch of empty classes so I filled them with elective classes such as Fashion & After the Tassel. Both taught by Mrs. Mansour, and then I had her husband for English. So half my day was spent with this couple! I loved them, and vice versa. They came to my wedding!

12. What was your school's full name? Buena High School

13. School mascot? Colt

14. Did you go to the Homecoming dance and with who? Junior year I went with Gregory Mitchell, he was just a friend, but always a hoot! And Senior year I went with David Partington, was dating him at the time.

15. If you could go back again, would you? Heck no. There were some fun times, but I like where I am now way better than in High School. I remember thinking in HS that this was the best time of my life and how could life go on after, and that I was going to remember EVERYONE...and now, I can hardly remember anyone, and it really wasnt very important at all. haha.

16. What do you remember most about graduation? it rained and all the staff was out wiping off all 600 grad chairs so we didnt get our gowns wet, and then a bunch of girls slipped on the wet ramp because they were wearing high heals....hilarious!!! (no I didnt fall, I walked very slowly) And getting sick at Grad night and I went home early!

17. Where did you go senior skip day? I dont even remember. I think Holly and I went to Taco Bell and then hung out at my house.

18. Were you in a club? Nope.

19. Have you gained some weight since then? Actually I have lost weight. I was solid muscle then...not so much now.

20. Who was your prom date? Nolan my junior year, and Nate my senior year...I was dating both at the time....told you I dated a lot in HS.

21. Are you planning on going to your 10 year reunion? Probably.

22. Looking back, what advice would you give yourself? The people that think they are all that now, will realize they are no one when they graduate and get into the real world. And to not care what people think...they dont matter in the long run anyway and they are still living with mommy and daddy still doing what they did in High School!
