If I had actually applied myself my freshman year, and actually studied instead of playing video games and watching cartoons, I probably would have done better at that class... Think I got a gentleman's C in that one. I aced that Govt. class we both had. I took the hint and changed majors.SystemErrorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01854770716543475700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30058135.post-33297500699528130282009-02-17T07:28:00.000-06:002009-02-17T07:28:00.000-06:00I love this one.

This was great. I'll have to send your link to Theresa. I'm pretty ashamed at all the mean things I thought about people though! I hope if any of them see this letter, they forgive me. I don't have bad feelings about any of them. Actually, they are all quite nice in my memories.<BR/>Just how many times could we write "fine" in one letter!!!!<BR/>-NickiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30058135.post-35549190629868283062009-02-12T22:06:00.000-06:002009-02-12T22:06:00.000-06:00What I remember about St. John's High was having to wear embarrassingly short green gym shorts and while our super pregnant teacher barked orders to a group of us girls laying on our backs and doing leg lifts. Also we rode horses. Also the religion teacher told us to question everything in the Bible, and I had a crush on a guy with a romance novel name. Actually, a lot of people in that town had crazy good names. Mimmie? Also a Maime Signa? Is that a person? I'm still waiting for a good place to sue the name Trey Truitt, its like CIA agent and a Southern gentleman rolled into one.SMKhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00711713762016204861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30058135.post-23352415802881727092009-02-06T17:20:00.000-06:002009-02-06T17:20:00.000-06:00Sure!
