Recently at a party I went to, someone that I met brought up that it's weird how close graduates of Bob Jones still are. Are all graduates of BJHS this close? Is it just 2009? I wouldn't say we are all as close as we were in those days, but I wouldn't hesitate to invite any of my high school friends out to eat, or to a party, or anywhere really. This guy should be so glad that we BJHS graduates are so friendly that we would be friends with the likes of him, or something.
I noticed at parties that people like to ask who you know at the party and how you know them. And at this particular party, because I didn't go to college where the rest of them did, my only connection is BJHS. Like I know, who cares that we all went to the same high school.
I was snooping on a friend's text conversation and the person he was texting had asked "Pharmacy people?" and he responded, "A family friend's party." And unless my spy skills are pretty bad, (& they are so take this observation with a grain of salt.) he was referring to the party that he was at and why didn't he just say friends from high school. Is it really that taboo? Apparently it's a big faux pas.
This observation is really of no consequence to me. What else am I going to do to escape my little brother while I'm at home? Make new friends with strangers? Ha.
There was another dude at that party that apparently graduated high school with the rest of us, but I definitely felt like I was meeting him for the first time. He was like, yeah! I know you! we had a few classes together! But I did not remember this character at all. So it's not all bj graduates that are connected. It's just the people like us who spent so much time with each other during those 3 years.
