Favorite memory: I suppose that would be 12th grades...as in 11th grade, I had the two semesters with 5 Fs and 2 Ds, and the hot shots wanted to kick me out of school. In 12th grade, I made the honor roll twice, and nobody could figure out how I had such a turn around...basically, I was motivated by revenge...as I wanted to prove to those teachers that, to paraphrase Edge, 'they think they know me, they will never know me, they know what I allow them to know.'
Singing in chorus class. I was in chorus all four years. The director, Mr. Teevens, was excellent (and cute). We learned some really tough arrangements and we learned to sing them well. I was disappointed when I got to college, joined the chorus there, and found that their arrangements were simpler than the ones we did as high school freshmen.
Water Polo!! and I still love it now. Making the team.. making Varsity my second year.. going to State Championships two years in a row.. winning MVP-Defense and just being with all the girls! so much fun!

That was a long time ago! Graduation, I suppose, and good times with friends.

I had a great time in high school. The entire experience is a good memory.
learning to drive
High school was not a happy time for me. I found great pleasure in learning to live vicariously through fiction and biography.
Getting my report card. I wasn't popular and I wasn't athletic, but at least I got straight A's.
Friends, silly antics, being an irresponsible teenager
Travelling through Italy with my choir senior year.
