i found an old school photograph and it brought back memories of schoolfriends i have not seen for years.
Holden McGroin, who used to take great pleasure in slapping my privates. Anita D1ck who liked the boys. Ben Dover who liked the boys, Hugh Jass who was over weight and finally Mike Oxbig who was popular with the girls.

Yes I do! It is actually a great feeling to be able to meet them unexpectedly because you will have the chance to talk and ask how are they doing already. Nothing has changed to them yet. Some of them are already married and some are still studying. Hope to be able to reunite with them when everything is settled already.

I am, sort of a pioneer, this part of the globe collecting classmates and having regular get togethers. I have been doing this since quite a few years now.We were 33, and our first get together was of 14 of them. To see them all in different 'avatars' was the least I had expected. Each of them had so much to tell us. It was a herculean task finding out their addresses and writing to them. Not all could make it though. In this process I also realised that a few of them are no more.

I wrote a two line verse on each of those 14 highlighting their idiosyncrasies during the times when we were in school and not one of them disagreed with me.

I have very fond memories of my old classmates. I haven't seen or talked to any of them since my late teens though. I have reunited with a couple of them on facebook but I have yet to see them in person again. I am hoping to get together with some of them one day.

Hi ajk. Oddly enough, I can't remember everyone's names like you can. I remember some of them like Jerry, oh yeah, Linda Vanderbilt was awfully mean to me. Rick was the president of our class. I went to so many schools in Chicago is probably why I don't remember more than I do. I could name many of them by first names and tell how I remember them, but my memory has gone in the last couple years and I can't remember more.

good day ajk111,
with reference to your main topic, i am proud to say that i do still remember my school friends. that, because of the so-called social networking site we were able to get in touch once again. connect once again and communicate for every update that we have. and, this is really nice. as i feel great whenever i do a communication with them.

Hello ajk...
Yeah I do still remember them, almost all of them cz I just graduated from high school last year. I can remember all my friends in high school. And of course we can't forget the one who was very cluttered, the one who couldn't stop talking, silly and other. It makes me smile to remember them. Sometimes I wonder if they miss me too or not. Now we are in different university and are busy with our study . And I forgot some of my friends in junior and primary school. I try to remember but still miss some names. Long time no see them, even I lost touch with them. So sad but now I'll try to find them .

funny you started this discussion. i was cleaning in my craft area where there are a bunch of bookshelves and i pulled a few year books. some are my hubbys and some are mine. i spent stome time looking at them and remembering some of these people and wondering where they are now. funny, the most popular people in highschool are not always the most popular afterwards.

16 years had passed since my graduation in elementary days and I seemed to remember lot's of details on our class during that time. But there are also some that I find it hard to remember. It feels great to chat with long time classmates and share each other's experience during school days. It's really fun, actually. :)

Wow, I checked the photo and it looks like something taken from a Charles Dicken's book. I'm sorry that may sound rude but I really like the picture. Is that your teacher on the farthest right? The one with a tall hat?
Wouldn't be nice if all your classmates use Mylot and you get to discuss about school memories all the time!

Hi ajk11,
I do indeed. I have often thought about and wondered how some of my old compadres were doing, in particular Carrie Oakie, Gladys Friday and Iva Thongon.

I remember my old school friends and I also am still friends with many of them today. Actually went out this evening with an old friend from school we had a fabulous time. It was really nice to catch up and enjoy a night out just us.
