What was the funniest thing, or thing you will remember most, about high school? I will most remember my 4th Period Sociology and Psychology classes with Ms. Barnett. We had numerous conversations and many, many laughs, and I will remember playing the Commie Game and Categories.
What advice do you have for underclassmen to survive high school? Always be your own person, don't be influenced by others and be sure you "Always make the most of everyday!"
What will you tell your classmates at your 10-year high school reunion? I do not know, but I'm sure I will in 10 years.
