Mood: they don't really care about us
I went to Busan with Megan and Nigel this weekend. It was pretty awesome. I'll write up a post about it later, but for now I want to talk about something completely unrelated: high school.
I was invited to a Facebook group, "Maine West High School-Class of 2005." Apparently a 5 year reunion is in the works. Um, what? First of all, I hadn't even realized it's been almost five years since I graduated from high school. That's a long time.
Second of all, I would never go to a 5 year reunion. What's the point? I don't associate with anyone from high school anymore, except on LJ, and I didn't particularly like high school while I was there. Plus, not enough has happened in my life since high school to warrant going.
This is what I've done since I graduated from high school: lost weight, came out, graduated from college, moved to another country, got a job. That's- well, actually, that's a lot, especially compared to some of the people I knew back then. But it doesn't seem like that much, you know?
Oh well, it doesn't matter anyways. I'm not going back home just to go to a reunion. Waste of time.

ooh, you're right - I forgot. 25 is also a milestone since you can start renting cars at that age!

Actually, aside from feeling old, I'm actually rather excited to turn 25. I honest to god hate the stigma that comes with being "in my early twenties" because everyone still treats me like I'm a dumb kid. I feel like I'm way older than I am sometimes, which is weird. Maybe it's because a lot of my good friends are in their thirties.
Well damn if that doesn't sound self important. Ugh.
