...Of Miller's Hollow. I ended up being one and my pack and I ate everyone. XD

Certain Celtic music makes me feel this. No Celtic blood, so certainly a case of Hiraeth. : )
And lots of tangos are exactly this. Immigrant longing, and longing for the past in the old neighborhoods of the less-affluent suburbs after moving to the big city.

Oh yes. You're absolutely right. I've never thought it that way! This is very interesting.

I got one today, too. 40 years since we graduated the Norwegian equivalent of high school. Damn, I am old :)

It's 30 years in my case, but I join you in feeling old too :-)
I went to a girls' school, so an evening with lots of women I disliked even when we were kids? No, I don't think so...

I'm looking forward to it, but it isn't until October. It was a fun class, both boys and girls, we had some very good times, so I really want to meet them. It's approximately 15 years since last time I met any of them, I live in another town.

Does this mean you don't have one? I hope it does."
Yes, yesterday I had a nauseating migraine. I was thankful, that it was my free day, because my medicine had not worked. Today I feel really good. YAY!

I'm glad you are well today! But not that you were sick yesterday :(

Mine is in September, so there's time enough to get over my grumpy depressive phase and decide if I want to take a chance on the handful of girls I liked :-)
HS reunions are sooo not my thing. But then, socializing with people I was never great friends with is not much fun for this introvert. lol.
Have fun if you do decide to go though!

Have fun, you reunion-goers!
I have never been to a reunion, mostly for geographical reasons, but maybe someday. Given I now live on the other side of the world, it seems pretty unlikely. My high school class had about eighty people, so we all knew each other fairly well and mostly had a very good time. A fair few of them have friended me on Facebook, so I kind of feel like I vaguely know what's going on with a lot of them. I haven't kept up with anybody from college, but I would still love to go back and visit the old alma mater someday.

I was very much a loner in HS. I had two good friends by the end and I do keep in touch with them. But that's it. I always had my nose in a book or was too busy writing fan fiction to care what everyone else was doing. Thus, I think it would be really weird and awkward to go back now.
I had an invite about five years ago for a reunion and I simply told them I was living out of state and couldn't go.

Reunions — amusing the first evening... when the margarita fountain is flowing. I caught a bit of my 10th, 20th, and 40th HS reunions. Based on that I don't need to go back until the 80th. ; D
