I stayed kinda close to two actually...
One I went all the way through school with,
and the other I met in high school.

We live in different cities, but we have
a reunion now and then.

not really. people pop in and out of my life, i guess, but nothing consistent.

facebook is weird because i've suddenly made contact with a ton of people i went to high school with and i'm always seeing their status updates and family photos whether i like it or not. lol

it's annoying but i don't mind it. if i see another picture of a hoosier couple posing with their baby in front of a pick-up truck i'm going to scream (i'm going to hell for writing that, lol), but i'd be lying if i said i didn't get warm fuzzies from having those harmless little connections to my past.

We'll always be friends, but we don't hang out anymore...mainly because of geography...I've moved all over the place in the Army...and many of my old buds left New Orleans years ago...

my best friend.... we met when I just turned 11. I bitchslapped her little sister off a tire-swing for talking about my mom and we became the best of friends after that mushy

I thought I was gonna get my ass kicked for sure, so I walked right up to her to receive my beatdown and she said, "serves her right for talking trash, wanna play?" We have been the best of friends for a little over 26 years.

All of the other girls we grew up with ended up on drugs or are dead (5 died, Nicole rose , Vikki rose, Tara rose, Felicia rose and Sandra F. rose ).

One has full blown AIDS, one is doing a life sentence and the rest are recovering.

Me and my best friend are the only two in my hood to never get caught up on drugs.

I moved alot when I was growing up so no many

Like 2 from elementary school, I lost contact with them when I moved from Virginia to California but I found them on myspace and facebook. I'm still friends with 4 people from junior high.

I went to 2 high schools. I'm still close friends with 2 of them. From the second HS, I'm still friends with mostly everyone I hung out with

No, sadly.

Alot of bad things happened to most of the folks I grew up with, it was a rough environment.

And the people that are ok haven't really grown up.

No I was a loner. When I see them I speak but most have ended up on drugs, jail, babies, AIDS those were the neighborhood folks. The high school folks are too uppity for me most of them.

For me people come and go I enjoy them while I can.
