Christy Raedeke: Never wear a golf sweater backwards
Jen Nadol: The guys you had a crush on in high school don’t seem to matter much anymore
Christina Diaz Gonzalez: To relax and enjoy the ride.
Kimberly Derting: That home perms and mascara are not always your friend
Kay Cassidy: Take more pictures and just have fun.
The most memoriable thing I learned by faar was that Jen wore her prom dress inside out with a jean jacket and combat boots. What was she thinking?
The most memorable thing about Jen is that she lives in a Farmhouse. I’m so jealous!
The most memorable thing about you isn’t from those posts. It is your Twitter chat a few mos ago when I met you and learned about The Cindy Society and how passionate you are about fighting the things that hurt girls and bring them down. I went out and bought your book the next day!
Jen Nadol: she colored her eyebrow omg.
Christy Raedeke: wearing golf sweater backwards wow.
Christina Diaz Gonzalez: layering socks…..
Kimberly Derting: dressing up to be madonna!! <3
I enjoyed reading all the interviews and laughing at how many of you find your outfits back then hilarious. Don’t we all!! I think it is pretty cool, Kay, how your dad was tech savvy. When I was growing up there was not computer, video games, cell phones or anything. Once I got to be a senior in HS we got a very old windows computer. Pretty funny now that I think about it!! Pretty awesome!!
All of the interviews were great and there are so many things I could name as being memorable, but Christy wearing her dad’s golf sweaters backwards sticks in my mind. And also Christina layering her socks and Jen’s prom date reminding me of New Kids on the Block.
As for your high school flashback, the Chevette sticks out most in my mind. I had never heard of the car before, but your face in the picture is just priceless.
Thanks for sharing your memories with us
The fact that Jen colored her eyebrows and wanted to try out to be a Seventeen model rather than go to summer art school stuck with me.
Jen- don’t give up something like an art program
Christy- golf sweaters should be worn forwards.
christina- one pair of socks is most definitely best.
kim- wow thats lots of lace
kay- enjoy life RIGHT now, dont worry about tomorrow
Depache Mode’s Strange Love makes Jen feel like a teenager again
I love that song!
You graduated with a class of 500+?!?!? Holy cow! I thought my graduation with 200 was long, that must have taken forever! Woah.
Christy – golf sweaters worn backwards, really glad that a trend that never caught on
I still cant imagine a high school class of 500.
Thanks for sharing this week. It was fun.
There are a lot of interesting high school flashbacks, but the most memorable one would be how Kimberly idolized Madonna and dressing up like her. Sometimes us girls love to dress up like our idols, aren’t we?
The most memorable thing about your high school moments would be having your first car, the Chevette, at the age of 16. Here in my country we won’t be able to get a driving license before 17, but most of us usually don’t get any cars until we graduate from high school. So it must be really exciting to get your first car when you’re 16.
