What was the funniest thing, or thing you will remember most, about high school? Especially now that I am graduating, it is interesting to look back and be able to see how much I have grown up and matured. I'll remember most not what I read in books or was told I needed to know, but instead, I will remember all of my friends who were apart of this important stage in my life and what I learned while growing up with them.
What advice do you have for underclassmen to survive high school? If you want to survive high school, don't stress out over minor things, be open to new ideas and new people, be nice, and don't be afraid to do your own thing--most of your peers will respect you for your independent thinking.
What will you tell your classmates at your 10-year high school reunion? I will be able to tell my classmates that I have finally started traveling around the world--assuming that I'll be anywhere near Abilene in 10 years.
