I had my 20 year high school reunion about a month ago. I'm sure every high school had that one girl...the girl that all the guys wanted to date. The one that was smart and pretty and was liked by everyone. The one that seemed to have it all together. You know which one I'm talking about, right?
Yeah well that girl's name was Vanessa.
It wasn't me. I would be what you might call the antithesis of that girl. The shy, awkward, glasses wearing, wall flower type of girl that no one really knew. But that was OK because you know why? Because I had a really small group of the most excellent girlfriends. Without them, I think high school would've been a completely miserable experience.
So here's to girlfriends-old and new!
Hope everyone in the States has a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
99% of us aren't that popular, pretty girl.
glad you had a good time.
i'd love to see my school friends from an island where i used to live when i was 7-8. there were only 12 of us in our school! somehow it made it really special.

i think it's wonderful that the "popular" girl is also nice and now a friend of yours. you know, i think the unnamed masses probably have a much easier time of it in h.s. than either the wildly popular or the phenomenally unpopular . . . enough of my philosophizing (is that even a word?) - love this layout!
and i didn't see the post b/f this until today, either, but i love that layout, too. love the journaling of *course* but i also like the shiny bits on the flowers. :)

It sounds like you had a great time! I love the photos and the paper you used... and how perfect is that SHOE embellishment?! (I've gotta say though, I could NEVER wear shoes like the ones you described. I'd fall flat on my face before taking my first ten steps!)
