20 years

Last night was my 20 year high school reunion. I mean 20 years has past since high school. To say I feel freaking old is an understatement, it feels like only yesterday. As the date approached my anxiety grew, bad memories of high school plagued me. Dreams of turning up and no one recognises you, No one talks to you or even worse! I know right, crazy thoughts but high school was a tough place where even when on the outside you seem to have your shit together inside you were still small and insecure. 

So last night happened and wow, it was great! I recognised 99% of people and everyone was beautiful. No one has really changed physically but we are all adults now and amazingly human! We all laughed and talked about life. There was no pissing competitions about “how great my life is” or “I’m better than you” going on. 

I may have fan girled over one of my school friends working on a tv channel that I absolutely love, sorry Gill! This reunion is one reason why social media is great, I feel like I knew so much about everyone. It made conversations easy as we although not close in real life, are still relevant in each other’s lives, no matter what paths our lives have taken. 

Last night was proof we all grow and evolve. That who we were in high school does not define our lives and that once you get to our stages in life we can all find common ground on bad parenting, work and love. See you all soon x
