I got a call from my long lost high school friend last week. We lost contact since graduation until recently reconnected via Facebook and she called to ask if I want to volunteer for the reunion committee. She and a few other friends were planning on having a reunion for our class on January. It’s going to be a 20 year high school reunion.
My first reaction was hah? It can’t be that long! She laughed, “Oh yes, it’s been that long!” Then we talked about our family, kids, etc. She’s been married for eighteen years, has two kids, the eldest is entering high school next year while the youngest is in 6th grade. Well, I guess she’s right, it’s been that long.
I told her I would not have time to become a reunion committee as I’ve been busy with my baby. She asked if I could come to the reunion then. I just laughed! Honestly, until now I’m not sure if I want to go to the reunion or not. After we hanged up suddenly I feel old, lol.
I never felt old before, even though I’m probably the oldest among other moms at my son’s kinder class (I never ask around to prove it though). Still, it didn’t make me feel old. Not until I heard my friend had a high school kid! Not until I heard my 20 year high school reunion is coming on January!
I guess being “entertained” by a preschooler and a baby and been busy with office and household works made me forgot about my age. I wonder if anybody else feel the same when they get a 20 year high school reunion invitation…
My 20 years is coming up next year too. They are having our reunion over the summer like they did with the 10 year one. I’ve already received emails about it.
