Nickelback : 'Photograph' Ok..so I was cleaning my apartment tonite when i heard this song, and then had to play it over and over again. I then got overwhelmed by the urge to look at past photos and laugh and cry..high school was...a challenge. I learned then that most people werent nice (went to a catholic school for 9 years then public high school) I was not prepared for the experience. I was more or less sheltered by nice people most of my life. The top right five are from kindergarten to my senior ball. The top left is growing up at my house in between, so are the bottom. Many phases, many years, many experiences..I learned that life ends, love dies. Your first kiss happens, then you think your first break up will end your life (so painful then so funny now) Grass fights with friends and siblings rocks...also the many games..red rover, hope to see the ghost tonight, hide and seek, tv tag, kiss and catch..those horrid ghost stories by the camp fire melting smores and knowing that the scariest thing in life was those ghosts. Being a virgin through high school and a "slut" at the same time..very comical. I learned how to defend myself in a proper lady like way and how to punch and step into it..lol That the school is full of backstabbers, the sluts were the cheerleaders, I was a jock ... track, indoor track, soccer, basketball, cross country... You realize the dangers of men, of what they greedily take.. Of how friends can be taken away from you in the blink of an eye forever, and your boyfriend, how you try to find answers at the bottom of a bottle and blame God for mistakes humans make. How well I know that. How I was the only girl in my class going on religious retreats through high school, while the others were partying and drinking...well there were those summer 4th of July parties...*chuckle* But still mostly innocent..no spin the bottle..although something along the name of Doctor? is that why I have such an aversion to them? haha Ok. so what else did i learn..oh that i chose to live on my own instead of my scholarships to college.. hey i was 17!
