I've always laughed at people that say "High school is the best time of your life." I have yet to find one person that agrees with that old saying.
While my high school days weren't horrific, they were still mundane and trivial. Most of my "friends" were catty, two-faced, egocentric, materialistic, soap-actor wannabees. It's been two years and I still get calls from them asking why we "don't hang out anymore." Um, because you haven't changed...at all! I was very lucky to meet a handful of people that marched to a beat of a different drum, that are still very good friends of mine to this day. I often think how different my life would have been had I not met them.
My prayers are with you that you put all of that behind you no matter how horrible it was. That the best revenge is living well and being happy.:)
