Just got back from a night out with my friends, one of them came to visit from the Cali. We just went to a local Japanese restaurant and later went for dessert. It was fun and we had a chance to catch up on things. We're going out again on Saturday so I'm really looking forward to that. :)

Is this the first time you've seen them since your highschool days?

No. 2 of them live on the island, but we don't get together that often, but the one in Cali visits once in a while, but sometimes it's hard to get all of us together (there's another friend in Virginia too). We are also visiting another high school friend of ours on Saturday, so it should be nice. :)

Awwwww sounds awesome. I haven't had a highschool reunion yet, tho I suppose it would be somewhat anti-climatic since I now teach at my old highschool and wouldn't be able to bash my ol' teachers as well. ;)

The year of our high school reunion, one of my friends got married so we had to skip it, but at least we got to see each other then even though it was stressful. :P And yikes. Teaching at your old high school? Were there any teachers you hated that you get along with now?

Actually yea. :mrgreen:

It's amazing how different it is to see them from a different POV. It's the teachers that we hate that actually do their job right.

Yeah, I can understand that. A teacher I couldn't stand is now a regular patient at our office and we get along pretty well now. She even told me to call her by her first name. :P

That was the hardest thing for me to do: call my teachers by their first names.

The department I work in (Visual Arts) still has all the teachers that previously taught me. It's taken me a good two years to get me to use their first names.

Wait, so you're going to Japan? Did you find a trouble buddy? >>thinks you should pack Wynter in your handbag<<

Wishful thinking mostly.

Q did mention that he was going again next year... If he doesn't have a travel partner and/or doesn't mind, then maybe.... Way too early to think about it.
