Woooooooo C/O 2000!!!!”</p> <p>Everyone always says they want to lose some weight before their reunion; I just want to lose some of this baggage.</p>http://blog.margeeka.com/post/482156505http://blog.margeeka.com/post/482156505Mon, 29 Mar 2010 14:30:28 -0400high schoolangstfacebook<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kts3pwaeM21qz9fn6o1_500.jpg"/><br/> No seriously, I really liked pansies.<br/><br/> <img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kts3pwaeM21qz9fn6o2_500.jpg"/><br/> I tagged my clipboard with Sublime.<br/><br/> <img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kts3pwaeM21qz9fn6o3_500.jpg"/><br/> My Vonnegut Library<br/><br/> <p>My high school obsessions were: Pansies, Sublime, and Vonnegut.</p>http://blog.margeeka.com/post/259823655http://blog.margeeka.com/post/259823655Fri, 27 Nov 2009 15:40:48 -0500high school<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ktrzp3uzFI1qz9fn6o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Me with my two colorguard instructors Bradley and Daniel; taken my senior year at one of our regional competitions.</p> <p>This is so “my two dads.”</p>http://blog.margeeka.com/post/259769107http://blog.margeeka.com/post/259769107Fri, 27 Nov 2009 14:38:51 -0500high school<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kts2u1Hzw01qz9fn6o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Does this need a caption?</p> <p>Whatever, it’s not like you’d <i>get</i> it anyway; it’s complicated.</p> <p>GET OUT OF MY ROOOOOM!!!</p>http://blog.margeeka.com/post/259755972http://blog.margeeka.com/post/259755972Fri, 27 Nov 2009 14:23:52 -0500high schoolangst<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kts2ipP9NC1qz9fn6o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>I was totally obsessed with Dr. Katz.

Teenagers like each other in fits and starts, sweaty lusting and sad desperate clawing towards one another, the kind of thing that makes you glad that, even though you are feeling old and cancerous and haven’t left the house for two days, you escaped that age. That you busted out and figured out other people at least somewhat, at least halfway, and so nothing is as fraught as it once was.</p> <p>Nothing is as exciting, either, but that’s the compromise of growing up.”</p> <p>- <a href="http://gawker.com/5302025/nyc-prep--you-dont-know-how-it-feels-to-be-me" target="_blank">Richard Lawson</a></p> </blockquote> <p>If you’ve already had lunch, I do not suggest clicking through to watch the video.</p>http://blog.margeeka.com/post/129472193http://blog.margeeka.com/post/129472193Wed, 24 Jun 2009 13:50:13 -0400angsthigh school
