| Whew... That's certainly a lot of pictures. I didn't take as many this weekend though.. Went to a couple parties yesterday (Saturday), and got a couple pictures. Lisa had given me an invitation, so I anxiously went to her's, I wanted to see her so badly. Finally, I got a picture of her and I:   Me holding my graduation cake:  My Canadian friend Graham and I:  I went to Joel's party after mine, and got another picture with him:  Also took a bunch of pictures of myself in my cap and gown a couple hours befor ethe ceremony. (Good god, I look HORRIBLE in these pictures....) My mother and I:  My older sister and I:  Lacey and I again:  My beautiful Trixie and I:  Trixie and I again:  Pictures taken at the ceremony are quite large, so I'll just link 'em. My mother took these pictures, and she had never used a digital camera before, so some may look a bit bad. Picture of our graduating class. 261 students.... Our Senior speakers, Jordan Garcia, and Kristen Ec... The Senior Choir.... Our school principal, Mr. Hutchinson ("Hutch").... Dr. Robinson, our Superintendent. My principal al... My good buddy Ryan. The first person to befriend ... My dear, beloved Lindsay.... Graham recieving his.... One of my best friends, and Star Wars know-it-all,... A line of students waiting to get their diplomas. ... Me, getting ready to walk across stage.... Shaking hands with the School Board President, com... After everything was over, I was able to find Lindsay. I gave her a big hug, and told her I loved her (Been wanting to tell her that for so long). I was unable to find Lisa though.  This really sucks. Who knows when I'm going to see these people again. I'll miss Joel, Lindsay, and Lisa more than anyone. I met Joel in 6th grade, as he was my locker partner. I alwaya had trouble opening the locker, so I always needed him to do it for me. He said that everytime he had to open the locker, I'd owe him a quarter. Of course, he was only joking. But waht did I do on Tuesday? I paid him back for it. He just laughed, and took the money. I met Lindsay in 7th grade, and I was amazed. I've had several great moments with her. My single best moment came Freshman year, when I bought her a box of chocolates for Valentine's Day. Another rather comedic one, came Sophomore year, when in Bioology first semester, she came in our class to worl in the back of the room. I went back there to "look at the animals" when it was obvious that I just wanted to be near her. We started talking, and the entire class turned around and stared at us. After our conversation was over, I went back to my desk, but tripped over a chair on the way. Heh.. It was hilarious. I met Lisa Freshman year. Couple weeks left in the school year actually. We were in science class together, and I approached her if we could work together. What's rather inteeresting is that she was in my Japanese class all year, and science the whole semester, and I had just noticed her, and just decided to approach her, with only a couple weeks left in the year. Something rather funny happened sophomore year, much like the "Lindsay, tripping over the chair" incident. I was walking past Lisa in the hallway, and she said "Hi Dylan!" to me, in a real friendly tone of voice, and I said "Hi" back, but continued to look at her, almost in awe, and I ran into the guy in front of me. Early junior year, she got into a car accident, and she came down with a minor case of amnesia. I was completely freaking out, and saddened by it. I made her a card, and wrote out a long message in it, and gave it to her. She loved it. Month or so later, I finally got the balls to ask her on a date. I was all set, ready to go... Then I find out she started dating a freshman a week or so before. ARGH! Really sucks. She's still dating Jeremy too... Some of my best memories of school include: Hitting a half-court shot in PE as time expired in basketball in 4th Grade. I was a Basketball God back then (And everyone recognized me as such, even moreso after I hit that shot). But then after elementary school, video games completely took over my life (Had been a casual gamer since I was 3, up to that point), and I just stopped playing basketball. Completely laying out Austin in 7th grade. Austin is/was a big jock, who's a real cool guy, he had just pissed me off that day. Jason and I had got into a fist fight, and Austin was laughing at us. Pissed, I charged him, and completely took him out. More recently, my having an erection in PE while doing exercises. While I was doing pull-ups once my friend Ryan's friend Jeff screamed at me "You can do it boner!" :lol: Not exactly a "best memory" but it's real famous. The infamous "Jenna Story" as everyone called it. I had written a fanfic "The Return of Sephiroth", which happen to have Jenna in it. There was a very sexual scene in it involving her and I. Showing it to my friend Jason, someone took it from him, and showed everyone. The first two months of 8th Grade were so great up until that point. That incident, along with several others involving myself and other girls is what made 8th grade the worst time of my life. It's all behind us now. Even though I sexually harrassed Amy several times, she still kept talking to me a lot (She'd start the conversations) back then. I didn't say a word to Jenna until Sophomore year though. I gave her a hug today after the ceremony, and wished her luck, she did the same to me. She gave me a big smile too. Although I did feel a bit uncomfortable though, with her father standing right there, since I heard he nearly sued my ass for the two things I did back in 8th grade (Both involving her and the fanfic). Anyway, back to good memories.... Giving Lindsay the box of chocolates and a card for Valentine's Day back in 9th grade. Making Lisa the card for her amnesia. Breaking out into song while listening to the radio in PE in 3rd grade. Everyone got a real kick out of that. I was the ladies man at my old school before moving here to Urbandale in 2nd grade. The girls just loved me back in 1st grade.  Humming Final Fantasy VII music (J-E-N-O-V-A to be exact) real loud in science in 5th grade, and Mrs. Sepanic yelling at me to stop humming. That's actually all I can remember right now. It's real late, and I need to get to bed. | |||

Damn right she is. Tosh is a guy (Hitoshi is his full name). Heh... I got an invitation to Laura's party, and and several of her senior pictures. My friend is absolutely obsessed with her after seeing those. He was gonna come to school with my on my last day just so he oculd meet her.  As for Melissa, yeah, I zoomed in on those, and took a few pictures. Although I did delete em, (Didn't meant to get your hopes up). I'd alway go on and on about her hair, and she'd say "All you really care about are my boobs." I'd grin, and say "Yep!" . I had a lot of fun flirting with her.Homecoming junior year, one of the days of the week was Blue & White Day (since those are our school colors), walking into school, my friend Greg, and fellow Phantasy Star fan, saw me and asked "Dylan, where's the blue hair?" Even though I have absolutely no school spirit, I kept joking a bit that I'd make my hair blue like Rolf's for that day. I miss Lindsay and Lisa. I love them both so much. | ||||||||||

I haven't read the whole thread yet - I'm busy at work - but this caught my eye...
That part is completely up to you. After I finished high school I moved interstate for study and stayed there for a few years after finishing. In that time I lost contact with an awful lot of people that I went to school with, but stayed in contact with a few of them. Somehow I've managed to meet up with a bunch of them again lately. Amongst other other reunions, two weeks ago I went to a housewarming party that a friend I hadn't seen in 15 years was throwing. Very strange, but very cool. | ||||

Yeah, I have Lindsay, Lisa, and Joel's contact information, so I can get ahold of 'em anytime. I'm actually thinking of contacting Lisa fairly soon, see if we can get together sometime.  | |||

| Yeah seriousily... I haven't lived in Connecticut since 1996 over 1400 miles away. Everytime I pass through it though I stop in and visit my friend Jason... I will be seeing him in a couple weeks when we bring my brother up there to be buried. It's cool too, whenever we hang out its like its 8th grade again. We are back to the regular ol' routine even though we're a decade older. | |||
