HighSchool Memories - Friday Five

1. Football Games and Wrestling Tournaments

Here's the juice..  I dated a football player..  I was the idiot freezing, alone, in the stands, at all games.. dressed in school colors, of course.  Then I dated a wrestler, from Clairemont High School (Barry McKnight has fallen off the face of the earth, tho!).  Our school sponsored a big tourney and well, I sat with his school, in our school colors and was a living traitor. LOL  Then one of my bestest friends got hurt, from our school.. so I went and did "ice on hot guys neck" therapy. It was my public service to Anthony Patton.  I should call him and ask him if he remembers this. He probably doesn't. I was quite invisible in that capacity, to him.

2. Seminary - San Diego 5th and 11th Ward

We had a ward boundary between our apartment, with my mom, and my grandparent's house.  When we lived with mom, we lived in 11th ward. When we moved back to grandma's 18 trillian times, we were back in 5th ward.  5th and 11th ward combined many youth activities, including seminary, until my senior year.. I had the best of BOTH worlds.

I miss Sam Edge, the most.  He knew me in BOTH worlds.

3. ASB. Associated Student Body - I was the VP.

The VP is the dirt job. really. You do whatver the Prez doesn't want to do or won't do.  I broke my foot the last weekend of my junior year. I had to plan and coordinate the Home Coming Dance, that summer, for October of the next school year.  It was MY function.  I survived a whole semester, as the VP.  Then the change in the attendance laws dropped my grades and made me ineligible for student council.  'nuff said.

4. MYAC - Mayor's Youth Advisory Council with Maureen O'Connor

I worked with a bunch of other geeks for a democrat! *sigh*

5. SADD - Student's Against Drunk Driving - #1 Home Coming Float 1986

I was the arm hanging off the back of the tow truck.  We had a grim reaper and a homecoming couple..  that's it.  We just towed a wreck around..   we rocked!

YES, I've always been a geek!  I resisted the urge to say "IT ENDED!"  Because that was memorable, in itself!
