I have been told that my post have been kind of 'oh feel sorry for me' so I thought I would post this one. It kind of has a feel good vibe to it.

I was out - back home - this weekend having lunch with my Grandma. When we went in I heard a familiar name called before our. Sure enough it was a guy that I had Graduated High School with.

In High School I was a dork - I was shy, quite and spent most of my free time in the art room working on projects. He was very popular, a football player of course. Nice guy though. I never had any issue with him and he had talked to me a few time in HS. But we didn't run in the same circle.

When we sat down to eat we sat in the booth across from him (he was out with his mom and dad, I had heard he was married but he wasn't there with his wife) As we were eating I glanced over a few times - he had not changed much maybe gained a little weight, but I wondered it he noticed me, or if he knew who I was, or if he even cared.

If he did he didn't say anything. But I got to thinking, I am not sure he would recognize me. I wasn't the same girl I was in HS. My hair was longer now and I dressed better. During the lunch I chatted with my Grandma and the waitress (who i also knew) I was not shy and and I was not quite. I talked about my worldly travels, my job and my new place. I smiled a lot and I was happy to be spending time with my grandma. I thought about saying something to him but you know that part of my life is over and I really don't want to go back there.

But it was kind of nice to think that I had really put that much of my past and my old imagine behind me that some one like that wouldn't even recognize and/or have the guts to talk to me today.

Our 5 year reunion was this year and my friend went and I guess people were asking about me, she made sure they knew what I was doing with my life and why I was not able to make it. It was fun. Now I know how all the popular girls felt in school. j/k
