Blasts fom the Past

Unfortunately after graduating high school it is hard for many people to keep in contact with the people that they spent those 4 years with. During that time you spent time going to class, trying to make friends, tying to be accepted, and having a blast with your closest friends. But once you graduate and get a job or go off to college it is difficult to stay in contact with some of these people.

Well a few weeks ago I received three blasts from the past. One girl that I went to high school with found me on Myspace and we have caught up a little through online. I wasn't the best of friends with her doing school, but it was great to see what she has been up to lately.

I then received two more emails, one through Myspace and one through my regular email address. Each email was from a different person, but both were very good friends of mine through high school. They were the friends that at graduation you swore you would never lose contact with, they were the ones that you would stay in contact with for the rest of your lives. Well, needless to say, this didn't happen and both people decided to email me within days of each other.

To be honest I had mixed feelings about writing either of them back. I kind of felt responsible for losing touch with them and was almost embarrassed to now have to face them. Well, last night I met up with one of them at Starbucks and I had a great time. Her life has changed so much in the past few years; it was so interesting to catch up. Hopefully we will keep in touch!

Well, the other email that I received a bit more intimidating. It was from a girl that I went to grade school with and also high school. She wanted to get basically 4 or 5 of us from high school together for a cookout. Now, I have not seen anyone of these people (except for the one that I saw last night) in about 5 or so years! I am very scared. She actually emailed me again last night to confirm the date of this cookout. I suppose I should suck it up and go...however, I am very scared and I not sure if I will have anything in common with these people ....sooo....I have a decision to make..I will let you know the out come later:)
