High School
This is a thread only for people who have left high school.
I was out at a mates place last night and got home and my parents had dug out and were watching my old year 12 video (like a video registration of the year with highlights from all the events and interviews with each student etc that was given to each year 12) so I sat and watched it with them.
Its been 5 years since I left and had hardly thought about a stack of the people, but it was nice to be reminded.
So this got me thinking, did you enjoy school when you were there, and now that you have finished do you look back with positive thoughts or negative?
I saw a part from the valedictory dinner and was reminded of all the emotions I felt that night. Pleased to be leaving school but sad at the same time. And also seeing the faces of friends who I haven't seen since reminded me of all the good times we had while at school, with no worries and everything was simpler.
Being reminded of the athletics carnival, where i made the bold prediction on camera that I'd throw the javelin 55metres, so here I am talking myself up beforehand, then the editors have put inspirational music (eye of the tiger type stuff), changed the video to black and white and done the slo-mo during my runup, only for me to launch it maybe 10 metres and foul. Was pretty funny actually. I had completely forgotten that I'd even done that .
Looking back I definitely miss the people and all the things that happened during the year, its funny how you look back and realise just how good times were, even if you didn't fully realise when you were there.
