We partied like it was 1999

{Senior Prom...that would be me in the purple dress I LOVED}

Saturday was my ten year high school reunion which I sadly missed on account of the thousands of miles between where I live and where I graduated.  I felt bummed about it. That's right, I said bummed.  Though my high school experience wasn't perfect, it was far from the horror stories that are often told.  I detached myself from all things High School, however, right after graduation and have felt rather nostalgic in the last few years to reconnect with old friends.  Facebook has been a saving grace for that, but a reunion?  So much better.  I have posted a few of the pictures I actually have from those teen years.  If you're interested go ahead and continue reading.

{Our dance company being rather controversial for the yearbook.  We were forced to retake a photo clothed, but regarded ourselves as quite badass from that day forward}

{Pretending to be pregnant to prevent a friend from going away. It didn't work}
