I graduated from my school five years ago , in the first two years post graduation I used to meet my school mates 4 -5 times every month , later I had so many friends , and it became harder for me to see my old class mates , but we still have a school club where we can meet , the last time I went there was about two months ago , and I really wanna go there again and meet my old friends but I'm really busy and I just can't find the time to do so ..
I hope that I will be able to see them next week end because I really miss them .

The last time I had high school reunion was last month. We went to a tea plantation up on the mountain and had a picnic. We also went jogging between the tea trees. It was a great reunion, great views and off course a great picnic too

i graduated in high school in 1987.
in 1992 i left Rome to live in a little town nearby and i lost all my school friends.
this year, thanks to facebook, i find almost my school friends and we organize a reunion in february after more than 20 years.
it has been very strange to see people changed, grown up, completely different!
hope to organize a new reunion asap!

enjopy to meet new friends of the reunion of more

We had our High school reunion last January and had a great time with old friends and highschool mates. Most of them had a good start with their career, some stayed same and some are not but hey are all great than before. We just missed everyone and had back that old story telling with each other. How I missed them too.

That sounds like a great time. I can see why people set school reunions up. I hope you can make it out to see your freinds soon.
I have never been to any reunion of any type. I would love to but I never hear of any happenings of that sort.

I had one about 5 years ago. They had been planning one for this July, but they were charging $110 per person, and nobody was paying, the $220 per couple so they canceled it. I don't know why they planned such an expensive reunion at a time when everyone is afraid to spend money.

The lsat time we had a reunion with my high school classmates was the year before last year. We celebrate reunions every year since we graduated from high school but last year we haven't done the reunion. I think because we were so busy with our own lives and there is also low budget for getaways so it was hard last year to organize a reunion.

I have graduated from my high school 38 years ago. We have had several high school reunions and I have been to several. I think I have only missed 2 of them. The last one we had which was 3 years ago which was our 35th anniversary but I did not get to go to that one.

Well this topic makes me recall my last reunion with my old school mates. I has been a few months since our last reunion. Usually we only meet once in a year during our gathering during new year. It has been not easy to ge everyone back and attend the gathering. Each year we're seeing like few and few of our friends turning up for the reunion, and actually we're seeing about the same faces each year,haha. Those who're more actively participating will attend each year, while the others who has not been showing up, we will hardly see them again. However, this is understandable that as we grow up, most of us have our own work and responsibilities, and also different group of friends already. Some of our friends even had gone to overseas to further study or to work. So, it'll be quite hard to gather all of us in the reunion every year. Anyway, i think i'm happy enough to be able to attend and gather with my old friends every year, and we're still treasuring our friendship very much.

It's quite sad to move on after high school, knowing you probably won't see most of them for a lot time. But going to university or a getting a new job are part of life's process, meeting new people who will become new friends. There are a few friends a keep in touch with, but I seldom meet them face to face due to our different term schedules and locations. As for a school reunion, I think two or three years out of school is too soon - they'd probably organize one 10 years on, or 20 years on, which are really good milestones to catch up and see where the winds have blown your former peers.

I can't remember the last reunion we had. It was so long ago and it was fun. Too bad we did not keep doing it. Cheers!!
