I love this carnival, so once again I am participating.
In honor of the graduation time of year, I decided to dig up a photo of me on my graduation day wwwwwaaaaayyyyyy back in May of 1986. Unfortunately due to my frequent instances of "some-timers" I have a vague recollection of my high school graduation.
Here's the things I do remember from that day:
**Being the salutatorian of my class and having to give a speech
**Which also reminds me that I had a scheduled upper GI (gastrointestinal) series done to check for gastritis-- inflammation of the stomach-- related to me being a very nervous individual at that time in my life. You'll be glad to know that I have since learned to relax a little.
**I also remember my best friend from my previous school being there (hey Karen).
**Oh yes, and after graduation all of my classmates, all 18 or so of us went to somebody's house and watched a couple of movies. I do indeed remember one of them being "Children of the Corn". I'm not sure I actually watched the movie, being so nervous and all.
**"We got the style and we got the kicks, cause we're the class of '86" --what in the world did that mean???? But that's something else I remember! Funny.
Yep, I'm looking pretty young there. And yes, for you observant types I am sporting a MULLET. That's another day and another 'Fro Me to You Carnival. So hop on over the Kristen's and check out some other carnival participants.

That's so funny! Before I finished reading, I saw the picture and my thought, 'do I spy a mullet?' And then I laughed when you confirmed it!
Thanks for playing along! Too fun.
I think they are actually called femullets on us girls. You only had 18 in your class? Wow thats a small class.
When you are writing in your gratitude journal remember how important the lesson of relaxing is AND that mullets went out of style :)
*Class of 87 here* and oh my gosh I cannot even stand to think about Children of the Corn. That movie scared the bejeezus out of me and I tried to watch it at least 5 times and never did make it though (I'm wondering why I feel the need to punish myself with such silly thngs).
I really wanted to add on to this other blog this week, but didn't get a chance to pull out any old photos! Maybe next week b/c what a great idea!!! Loving you at graduation though :-) Still working on your ceus...
Business in the front, Party in the back! Love your mullet.
I remember things best forgotten about my graduation... Mostly about a Psycho Ex-Boyfriend. Gosh how REDNECK.
Nice to be all grown up now! Sort of.
