For Throwback Thursday, one of my Facebook friends that I've known since kindergarten posted this photo and tagged me in it:
I'll be honest: it took me a while to figure out which girl was me.
I'd forgotten how much of an influence Laverne & Shirley had on my personal style back then. Yes, that's a cursive letter "C" sewn to my shirt. (Also, I had a cat named Boo Boo Kitty. I really, really liked that show.)
Judging by how dark my hair is, this was probably sixth or seventh grade. Almost everyone in the photo went to elementary school together and stayed in the same school district through graduation.
I think this was my friend's birthday party, but I have absolutely no memory of ever attending a party with (gasp!) both boys and girls. My position at the back of the pack was pretty indicative of my social status and shyness, although most of the people in the photo were my best school friends.
It was quite the blast from the past to see this because it brought up memories I didn't even know I had in the dusty corners of my brain.
Do you remember your school days clearly or are they a dim memory for you?
