hilsTaken from all over the flist
1. Did you date someone from your school?
Nope. I didn't really start dating until I was 16 and all my boyfriends were older than me and out of school already. Yeah, I was a rebel
2. Did you marry someone from your high school?
Good lord, no!
3. Did you car pool to school?
I took the bus in my first year of secondary school and walked the rest of the time after that
4. What kind of car did you have?
Dude, I only passed my test last year and I STILL can't afford to run a car
5. What kind of car do you have now?
See above
6. It's Friday night...where are you? (then):
Ah, one of the local pub or our local nightclub. Yes, I was too young to be in either place but it didn't stop me
7. It is Friday night...where are you? (now):
Hah! Inside watching TV or playing online
8. What kind of job did you have in high school?
My first job was working in this old Victorian-style grocery shop. The pay, I'm pretty sure, was below minimal wage and my boss was a pervert. Then I got a job working for B&Q and stayed with them until I graduated uni
9. What kind of job do you do now?
I'm an IT support technician
10. Were you a party animal?
I sure was! Oddly enough as soon as I got to uni, where most people do all their hard partying, I settled down. I guess I got it out of my system early
11. Were you considered a flirt?
I probably tried but wasn't very good at it
12. Were you in band, orchestra, or choir?
No, the closest I got was a small role in the 6th form school panto. I had to audition and everything
13. Were you a nerd?
Not as nerdy as I am now.
14. Did you get suspended or expelled?
Hah! No.
15. Can you sing the fight song?
There's a song? In my school it was more of a chant
16. Who was/were your favourite teacher?
Mr Birch. My English Teacher. I think he saw himself as a bit of a Robin Williams from Dean Poets Society. He had us standing on desks and everything
17. Where did you sit during lunch?
Pre-sixth form we had a table near the science block where we all used to congregate. In sixth form we pretty much took over one of the small rooms in our common room
18. What was your school's full name?
Northallerton College
19. When did you graduate?
I left school in 1998.
20. What was your school mascot? No idea.
21. If you could go back and do it again, would you?
Probably not. I'm at the point where I only remember the good stuff but there was a lot of angst and bullying too that I tend not to dwell on. Would rather not go through that again
22. Did you have fun at Prom?
I'm from England. We don't have Prom or anything like it
23. Do you still talk to the person you went to Prom with?
See above
24. Are you planning on going to your next reunion?
Having seen most of my old school crowd on Facebook, no. I don't imagine I'd have much to say to anyone
25. Do you still talk to people from school?
I talk to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Date: 2009-02-09 12:16 pm (UTC)My school had both a Year 11 Prom (post GCSEs), and a Sixth Form Ball, so I don't think your statement is entirely true I'm afraid! I think a lot of English schools have started to have proms now.
