1. Did you date someone from your school?
Yes, I dated a few guys from my school.
2. Did you win anything in Seniors Who's Who?
No.
3. What kind of car did you drive?
My dad's 1992 Toyota pickup truck.
4. It's Friday night...where are you?
Probably on a date with Kyle.
5. Were you a party animal?
Not really. My friends had some fun parties but I didn't go to the raging keggers. LOL
6. Were you considered a flirt?
Yes, when I could overcome my shyness around guys.
7. Were you in band, orchestra, or choir?
Yes, I was very very very involved in choir. I was a choir officer, a member of show choir, in All-Region choir, took voice lessons, etc.
8. Were you a nerd?
Not really. I *was* a straight A student in the top 20 of my class, and our class was very competitive academically, but most of us were not your stereotypical "nerd" at all. My nerdery was mostly under the radar. ;-)
9. Did you get suspended/expelled?
No. I was a very good girl for all intents and purposes since my dad taught at my high school, and everything I *might* have done wrong I got away with!!
10. Can you sing the fight song?
Yes. I can also sing the alma mater, which I had to lead in front of our graduating class at multiple events as a choir officer. Strangely the tune to SMU's alma mater is the exact same one.
11. Who were your favorite teachers?
Mrs. Morris, my honors English/creative writing teacher, and Mrs. Volk & Dr. Eder, my choral directors.
12. Where did you sit during lunch?
We had a "table" in the cafeteria when we ate there...sometimes we sat in the fine arts hallway, and other times we snuck out for lunch (pre-senior year) or went to Joe's Pizza or Chik-Fil-A if we drove REALLY fast.
13. What was your school's full name?
Newman Smith High School
14. School mascot?
Trojan
15. Homecoming court?
I honestly don't remember.
16. If you could go back and do it again, would you?
I would be a lot more confident now than I was then, I think. I let shyness and uncertainty get the better of me, and when I went to college that kind of all disappeared and I was MUCH more myself.
17. What do you remember most about graduation?
I had the cutest dress on under my robes, it was hot, and I was ready to celebrate!!

Don't remind me.
