Who was your best friend?
<\/strong>Prairie, Cree and Benj Ross, Gypsy O’neill (though Gypsy never went to CHS), Kas Clark, Ryan Picavet, Amber and Nick Howell, Sara Abe.<\/p>\n

What sports did you play?
<\/strong>I played baseball up UNTIL high school.  After that, have to go with Prairie.  Theater sports are the bomb!<\/p>\n

What kind of car did you drive? <\/strong>
My beautiful, sky-blue 1984 VW Rabbit.  I remember I let Sara and Amanda borrow it one day during lunch (what the heck was I thinking!?), and they swore that the car didn’t have a reverse.  I drove Ryan’s maverick once, and slid into a ditch.  That was hella fun.<\/p>\n

It’s Friday night, where were you at?<\/strong>
I did Cafe al Mundo a few times.  Otherwise, I was usually off running around, playing in the park, or cold chillin’ with my friends.  Or at play rehearsals.  Not much partying for me, back in the day.<\/p>\n

Were you a party animal? <\/strong>
If I was, I think I was a party aardvark.<\/p>\n

Were you in the “In Crowd”? <\/strong>
I got along well with everyone, I think.  I did run for ASB prez one time, with Kas, but we didn’t win.<\/p>\n

Ever skip school? <\/strong>
I skipped PE a lot to go eat McDonald’s and play in the park.  It was right after lunch, so it was the perfect class to skip!  Junior year Kas and I skipped our running start English 101 class to … eat McDonald’s and play in the park.  Sometimes we’d eat McDonald’s and drive around, but more often than not, it was the park.<\/p>\n

Ever smoke?<\/strong>
Yep.<\/p>\n

Were you a nerd? <\/strong>
Were?  Am!  Wait … “Am you a nerd?”  Stupid grammar.<\/p>\n

Did you get suspended\/expelled?<\/strong>
No, somehow all of my teacher’s liked me.<\/p>\n

Can you sing the Alma Mater? <\/strong>
Dude, I didn’t even know that we HAD an alma mater.<\/p>\n

Who was your favorite teacher?<\/strong>
Mr. Holland was awesome.  I liked Mr. Fine a lot, for some reason (he called me Mr. Ferrari with an appropriate amount of ironic inflection), and Mr. Christian.<\/p>\n

Favorite class? <\/strong>
English and drama.  And math.<\/p>\n

What was your school’s full name? <\/strong>
Colville High School<\/p>\n

School mascot? <\/strong>
Indian.  Because of the “Colville Indian Reservation” being right there, I suppose, but we really had very few native american’s in our school.<\/p>\n

Did you go to Prom? <\/strong>
I went to prom my junior year and it was one of the lamest things I have ever done.  Ever.  That night sucked in every conceivable way, not the least of which someone who I didn’t even know, and who was younger than me, informing me that I was going to be a complete failure in life.<\/p>\n

If you could go back and do it over, would you? <\/strong>
I dropped out a little over halfway through.  Do you actually think I would go back and do it again?  Well … maybe, but only if I got to bring a laser gun.<\/p>\n

What do you remember most about graduation? <\/strong>
That I didn’t graduate.  The GED was hella easy, though.  I remember that, and that I completed it in about 1\/3rd the time they say it’s supposed to take.  I think they’ve made it harder since then, though.<\/p>\n

Favorite memory of your Senior Year? <\/strong>
Technically, I didn’t have one.  Moving to Port Townsend and working that year was an awesome experience in general, though.<\/p>\n

Did you have a job your senior year? <\/strong>
See above.  I worked as a busser\/host at the Silverwater Cafe in Port Townsend.<\/p>\n

Who did you date? <\/strong>
In order?  Prairie (kinda, we never did kiss; I was way too shy), Jamie, Sara, Brooke, Amber, Heather (crazy Cheney girl!).  Good times.  (Mostly) Good memories.<\/p>\n

Where did you go most often for lunch?<\/strong>
McDonald’s.  Yuck!<\/p>\n

Have you gained weight since then? <\/strong>
My body type hasn’t really changed much (still average\/slightly chubby), but yeah, I’ve gained about 20 lb.<\/p>\n

What did you do after graduation? <\/strong>
What haven’t I done!?  Okay, well lot’s of stuff, but hey, there’s time!  If I were to mention three things: graduated from Evergreen, moved to Ohio (and back), started working in libraries.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
