Reflections

Today is the first day of the Challenge...

For this one I'm going to go way back in time to "9th Grade Day". The year was 1987. It was the last day of 9th grade and the end of my Jr. high career. I remember laying out in the soccer field with all my close friends. In attendance were my then boyfriend Vince, my best friend Shalley, (who is still my best friend) Jeremy, Cathy, Shell, Diane. (I think that is all) As we laid there signing each other's yearbooks, someone started writing on my jean shorts, then everyone joined in. There were things like
"Vince~n~Cher"
"Shal~n~Jer"
"Poison"
"Bon Jovi"
"Def Lepard"
"Duran Duran"
"Class of 1990"

I kept those shorts for many years my bottom dresser drawer and every so often I would take them out and think about those times.

9th grade was a very good year. I made some lasting friendships. Vince was my first real love... I often think of him to this day. I'm curious to what became of him.
