I got a notice in the mail that my 20 year class reunion is at the end of September.
I went to 3 different high school and don't have a lot of fond memories of the last two hight schools that I attended. This school is the second HS that I attended.
The first HS that I attended, I had attended elementary school and grade school with all the same people. I was very popular, a cheerleader, well liked. I lived with my mom. Then, my mom decides to just move out and take my brother and sister but leave me. The problem was, she didn't tell me she was moving! I came home from school and walked in the house and she had taken EVERYTHING except one garbage bag of my clothes sitting in the middle of the living room floor. She didn't even leave a note. Her friend came to tell me she moved out of state. I had no address for them or phone number. It was the worst day of my life.
So, I had to move to my dad's house in Louisville. He had a new wife who resented having me there and made sure her own daughter was WAY favored over me. Her daughter got a car and money, etc. I never got ANYTHING. Anyway, I was very depressed the summer before starting this HS and gained like 20 lbs, which on me was a big deal. I had always been tiny and cute at the other school but I started this school chubby (my snacky cake addiction had taken hold). I remember being in a school play and at one point I had to act like I fainted. My shirt came up a little and showed my belly, and some boys in the audience started mooing like cows.
I went to that school for my junior year and half my senior year.
My dad then decided to move in the middle of my senior year and make me start yet another school. I lost all the chub, but was still teased for being a smart kid, etc. I actually ended up knocking out a chick in the middle of class. Long story.
Anyway, I get this notice that the 20 year reunion is coming up and all these emotions came back to me. I didn't know that they still bothered me. I guess everyone gets an anxiety attack when they get the reunion notices?
