This is
Sally, a former high school classmate of mine.
Her last name starts with a G and my last name starts with a H, so we
sat near each other in some classes we had together. This picture was taken at our 50 Year High School
Reunion, Part i, in 2010.
Although we
sat near each other in many classes through high school we have never
spoke. It seemed she ignored me. I don't blame her. She was definitely there to learn and my
friends and I were there to have a good time.
While she was taking notes we were giggling, pulling pranks on each
other, and generally causing some kind of ruckus.
She grew up
to be a school teacher.
When I took
this picture was the first time I spoke to her.
I more or less apologized for being such a disturbance near her in
school. She more or less said,
"Apologized for what?" She
said she loved watching us, every moment of it - but she wasn't the type to cut
up like that, but did enjoy watching our
antics.
As we talk,
I wonder, was she silently correcting my grammar with a red pencil?
