high school popular
There was this guy in high school, junior or senior when I was a freshman, star basketball player, smart, popular, talented, etc. He went to to play college basketball for a top school. He MIGHT have known my name at one point, since we attended the same church (although different congregations, so probably not), but we never actually interacted (naturally). Now he works for the same organization I do (although much higher in the ranks). I occaissionally get emails from him now, referring to purchasing and such, and whenever I see his name in my inbox my first thought is "Since when did he start emailing me?" I have a total 14/15 year old flashback, where the idolized senior guy is actually talking to geeky me. And then I remember, oh yeah, he works in the business department. I order books and supplies. He makes sure they get paid for. Duh.

I love it when someone whom you would never have talked to in the past, ends up in you life path in the now.
I'm just a junior in high school now, but I hope to one day recall people from my past like this. I'm not overly geeky or socially inadequate (or at least I pretend I'm not), but I can't wait to see the person I become.
Your blog really gets my thoughts going, thanks so much!
