    The farmers and business owners' sons stuck around, the most of the rest pretty much blew this taco stand years ago.

    Some are sound and have matured and some are still total cnuts.

    I went to my school reunion two years ago fully expecting it to be sh1t but had a great time. The guy who stole my first love got so drunk he fell in the Radisson bar and split his head open. I'm so glad I was there to witness that :D

    Out of school 12 years and still good mates with all them, some are doing really well for them selfs and others not so much lots have moved away but everyone still keeps in touch which is good,
    Going to a wedding in Spain next month and most will be making the trip from whereever they are now.

    Most are pregnant and on the dole, have 1 or more kids and are on the dole, are on the dole, in/finishing college and waiting to go on the dole...didn't go to the best secondary school. The sad thing is some of them had true potential they just never valued education that highly.

    Regards personality change, most are the same as they were back in school while some have changed to the point of being unrecognizable even physically speaking. Whatever about the period of change between 1st yr and 2nd ye of college I found that a huge amount of change occurred during transition year.

    Still a bunch of assholes the ones I've met who never changed their ways, still deserved to be shot into the sun.

    My best friend in school was sexually active at 14. Her boyfriend was a good looking guy and she was the first one of us to do anything naughty. She seemed to have the perfect life, she slagged me for my hair being too thick, my clothes, my makeup, lack of boyfriend, then lack of good looking boyfriend, she hated my mother and of course her family was so much better than mine, (her brother was in my brothers class and she could tell me he didn't do much of his maths mock exam for junior cert). She was going to college to do architectural technology and her and her boyfriend would live in a big house, rich because his dad owned a business.

    We're twenty four now. She's the town bike, she's shacked up with her dads (ex) friend who's in his 40s, she works in a local factory packing slices of ham and her parents are split up, before her dad left the country he was always skulking around the nightclub by himself on Thursday and Sunday nights. And for such a fashion conscious fasionista, she wears only black now, everythings black. How things have changed.

    Haven't spoken to most of them in the 11 years since I left - didn't really get on with most of them. From what I've heard, a very high proportion of them are married with kids, and most are still living in the local area.

    They were dickheads then. More than likely dickheads now. Haven't looked back or even seen them since and will be content if I never do:)
