“It is strange how the romances of the teenage years retain a poignancy all through life - how a girl who turns you down when you're 16 retains an aura in your memory even long after you, and she, have ceased to be who you were then. I attended my high school reunion a couple of weeks ago and discovered, in the souvenir booklet assembled by the reunion committee, that one of the girls in my class had a crush on me all those years ago. I would have given a great deal to have had that information at the time.” YearsLongSchoolRomanceTurnsGirlGivenMemoriesDealsClassWeekInformationStrangeCoupleHigh SchoolYears AgoCrushCommitteesTeenageOur MemoriesReunionAurasTeenage YearsSouvenirsPoignancyHigh School ReunionSchool Reunion Book:Roger Ebert's Video Companion Source: Roger Ebert's Video Companion

“High school is a really strange time - you're not a kid, you're not an adult. You're about to be an adult, you're going to have to make some really intense decisions.

Even if that means you have one friend who supports you completely.” IfsMeanSelfKidsSchoolDecisionSupportStrangeHigh SchoolAdultsSelf ConfidenceIntenseSupport YouPivotalOne FriendStrange Times Author:Tyler Blackburn

“I did my last year of high school as an exchange student. I lived south of the Atlanta, in a quite strange place - real southern.

“I could never stand big-mouthed types. I had problems with that at high school. Ive still got the scars on my fists from the teeth of the guys I hit so that theyd finally shut up. I came from England to Canada, of course, and was often ridiculed because I had a strange accent. I was expelled from school and it was a long time before I could control myself. But the impulse remained: a punch in the mouth to get some peace and quiet.” LongProblemSchoolGuyStrangeQuietHigh SchoolImpulseScarShut UpPeace And Quiet Author:Lennox Lewis
“It feels kinda weird being back in a high school cause I haven't been in a high school for about a year.
