The time is quickly approaching for my 10-year high school reunion to take place next year, and I'm a little bit hesitant to go for many reasons..
I don't feel like I am where I should be, and where I want to be, in comparison to my peers. Many of them are married, have careers, children, a house, new cars, white picket fence, etc....I don't have a husband, I have a job NOT a career, no children, no new car, no house of my own, no white picket fence, and no man. So as you can tell I'm a little apprehensive about what they will think about me....Now I know I'm not the worst in my class, because the worst person turned out to be a serial killer currently in a Panama Prison, who happens to be a female (#wheredeydodatat?), BUT I know I'm not the best either...I just don't want to go in there half-steppin and not having much to say except for I made it this far alive.
I'm basically writing all this to say...I hope I have a career, a man, a new car, and a house/apartment/or townhouse of my own before this reunion comes in the spring or summer of next year. I have control over all of the things except the man, so I can and I must work on making those things happen, not only for the sake of me wanting to say something positive at the reunion, but because I need to get my grown woman on.
So, have you been to your high school reunion and felt like a bum compared to your peers? Does it really matter?
uh **raises hand** the majority of my classmates..wait..no ALL of my fellow cheerleaders are married with children.. i aint got ish but a teddy bear..but hey..look at it this way..i can make them jealous by saying i get to go and come as i please. who cares what they think? just go and whip ur hair back and forth. mmk.
