Lol, CJ.
I'm not all that different- maybe a little less idealistic, but many of the opinions I formed back then still hold. Such as : Chronological age does not ensure maturity (nearly the entire staff of my HS taught me that), insanity does run in families, most popular kids peak at HS and spend the rest of their years trying to recapture that glory (I was semi- popular, but definitely outside the norm at my school), Punk music rules, no home is a home without a cat or two, and my brothers are idiots.
Friends have tried to get me to go to reunions, but it's the same old former cheerleader chairwoman that organizes the same dumb events every year. Golf, luncheon, golf, golf and then the dinner where everywhere stands around thinking about how very much time has ravaged everyone else, and hoping they don't look as bad. Good times, good times.
