But what struck me the most was this: I left school in 1996, and looking at all those 15 and 16 year old students sitting in that class room (probably the same rooms I myself use to sit in when I was there age) I suddenly realized that I left that school before any of those 16 year olds were even BORN!

I did find that slightly depressing for some reason...

I was in my local shop the other day buying something, and there was a teenage girl in a school uniform being served in front of me.
When I was asked to go to the next checkout I discreetly had a look to see what uniform it was.
And I noticed it was from my old school above!

Like I said, they've changed the colour of the logo though.

I stood there and I thought to myself "I use to wear that uniform..."

Did they ever check the length of your skirt?

My high school class is having its 50th reunion this year. I looked through our yearbook the other day. It was sobering to realize how many were already dead.

If I last as long as my parents, 75% of my life has passed. Damn it went by quick!

when you see little Lindsay Lohan nowadays, and think how she looks like
an old rock & roll casualty. then you do the math. and yes, she is old now.

31 or not she is still a "lifestyle casualty". The self life of a party girl is not long being in the spotlight or not...

Smoking, drinking, cocaine, marijuana, etc. done in copious amounts will age the human body quickly, especially those of the female sort.

She was wearing trousers (well, I think she was, I didn't look too hard for obvious reasons...).

I'm afraid to ask you if your teachers are still alive.

My classmate breathed his last in 2006, he was only 25(drug overdose).
My fellow student died of volvulus in late 2002, she was only 21.
