Kickin it ol' school '98 what what!

circa June 1998

On Friday I will be going to my 10 year HS reunion. I know what you're thinking Cyndi cannot possibly be old enough to have been out of HS for 10 years, or well at least I am thinking that. I have mixed feelings about going. There will be a handful of peeps that it will be good to see again, who I just lost touch with, without meaning to. But I feel inadequate to be there like I should have done more by now. Luckily I will have my TK and Erin there with me. So I will go with a positive attitude (and maybe a few drinks in me) and we WILL have a good time.

Oh and a question for you all, what is dressy casual? That is our dress code. I know what dressy is and I know what casual is. I even know what business casual is but what on earth is dressy casual? Help a sista out.

40 already?

Last Saturday I had the wonderful opportunity to attend Marc Henning's 40th birthday. Everyone gathered at Samer's house in San Diego to celebrate Marc. This is the view from the backyard!Chillin'Erin and Tiffany.Party was catered with great Mexican food. Singing "Happy Birthday" Marc blew out the candles before we finished, he said he thought if the candles were blown out we would stop singing. Catching up with old friends.

There was a great turn out of VGC'ers of yester-year. I had a nice time catching up with familiar faces and talking about where we have all been and what we've done with ourselves for the last 7-10 years. Jason, Erin (Dolbey), Myra, Tim, Erin, Samer, Kjirsten, Nichole, Annie, Erica, Bethany, Brandi, Jordan and Andy just to name a few. Some brought husbands, wives and children. It was crazy to see what paths life has taken us down. I look forward to another mini "reunion" in the future.

Homecoming Weekend

On Friday October 24th I counted down the minutes till I could jet out of work, hop in my car and fly down the freeway to SD. Why you may ask? For because my dear TK came all the way from Colorado for a whirlwind of a visit. Once I made it to mom's I chatted with T and Richard for a few before he took off for the evening. T and I headed over to Subway to grab some sandwiches. Picked up Tiffany and went over to our Alma Mater Serra High to see the "Q dawgs" 2008 homecoming game. Our good buddies Erin and her daughter Hadley as well as Tif's parents and sister all met up for a mini reunion of sorts. We had a good time hanging out and watching our boys in a victorious fight against La Jolla!

The game itself was a nail biter. There were punches thrown, shirt grabbing and swinging around of players. A failed field goal attempt that would have tied the game when we were down by 3 because a La Jolla player some how tackled the ref! It all came down to the last minute and a half when Serra made some great gains and completed a couple awesome passes. We thought they were going to have to kick it and settle for a tie but the boys pulled it together and were able to pull out a win. Final score of 21-17!

On Saturday we slept in a bit, did some shopping my mom found a shirt that looked really good on her, sadly we did not find any pants that were petite in length and I got a beautiful shirt that looks really good on me (thank you TK) Ineed to go shopping more often with T (did I really just say I NEED to go shopping?), we rented a couple movies, and enjoyed just hanging out together.

Sunday began with church. We grabbed a quick lunch and then headed out to the harvest festival at Del Mar fair grounds. Mom, T and I looked around at all the incredible and some scary (fish) sculptures that people had created. Both Mom and TK picked up some lovely necklaces and a ring. Before long the three of us had to head home where we packed up, had dinner, took back the rentals, took a spin around Tierrasanta since it has been 8 years since TK has been back and then I bored T with hundreds of photos from Alaska. Too quickly it became time to head to the airport so that T wouldnt miss her plane.

See you in November friend.

10 years already?

This summer marks my 10 years of being out of H.S. and there is talk of a reunion. If you are from Serra High School class of 1998 you can click here for the offical Myspace page. I am starting to get excited about this event. I am hoping a couple of my peeps will go with me and we will have a great time hanging out and seeing all of our old classmates.
