High School Flashback

"High School is never over!" The Jane Austen Book Club. Movie

There is something about a bad teacher that reverts me back to High School. My English teacher insists on reading to us! Since when is reading out loud from a book considered teaching? I sit in a round table with my fellow classmates acting up, making them laugh, being rebellious.  Like I said I was reverting back to my teenage years. It's comforting to know that that girl is still in me.

In a lot of ways though the quote above is correct, high school is never over. Think about your work environment.  You still have the clicks, that group that always goes to lunch together and if you are not part of them you know it. The geeks, still the smartest guys and girls we know but most of us can't understand half of what they are saying, they speak their own language and are socially awkward. The jocks, these are the fit people, they work out, eat well and let you know all about the latest gym/class they are into and how it has changed their body. Sure these are stereo types but they are alive and well in cubicle world.  We still try to get out of our box, and some of us succeed, but the rest of us we stay who we were.

I love to hear from you out there, who were you in High School, does that label still apply?
