I haven't been to a reunion yet. It's been 12 years since I got out of highschool. Technically, I didn't graduate where I went to my senior year, but I've recently found a lot of them on MySpace. Once I'm at goal, I would love to show off my progress. I wasn't "fat" in highschool, but I was "bigger" than all the other girls. Especially taller. It was rediculous but some jerks still wrote "Have a whale of a summer" in my 8th grade notebook. I'm proud of who I am, fat or not. I hope they can say the same thing.
