Were You in the Top Ten in Your Graduating Class?

[Missam05]

I was number 5 in a class of 232 (I think that was the number..) Only 3 AA members and I was the highest. Class of 2001

I'm not even sure what happened to our salutitorian. After graduation, the rumor was that she turned down a scholarship b/c she didn't like her roommate and then went to a community college.

Most if not all of the top 10 are college graduates and working hard!!

I was #8 out of 366 (I think 366). I was #6, but that F in AP English dropped me right on down. To this day, I still hate Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness.

I was in National Honor Society, president of the Beta Club, SGA, and Spanish Honor Society.

What's interesting is that I really don't know what happened to most of the top 10. We just don't keep in touch, but I know the valedictorian and her best friend in the top 10 had a huge falling out during college. They went to different colleges. Valedictorian had always wanted to be an XYZ and became an XYZ. Her best friend always talked about ABC, but they were suspended for years. Therefore, best friend jumped on an undergrad resurrection line for XYZ that was brought in by the grad chapter. The last time I saw them together, they were icier towards each other than the coldest Alpha. That's icy.

Yes,...I digressed all over the topic.

Yes, I was.

One of them commented: 'If (name) can't finish it in time, I know the rest can't.' < But so true.

Oh, and what high school did I go to? Ahem, let's check Newsweek's Best Public High School rankings...ah, yes...Walnut Hills. #34. Whoo-hoo!

Yes! Yes! YES! As well as the Annex (R.I.P.), Alumni Hall...oh the memories! Sursum Ad Summum!

Hey now Soror Nia X...that gold dome represents excellence and prestige. LOL. Depending upon the year you saw it, it may or may not have had class numbers painted on it...or perhaps cafeteria tables. How clever those seniors and their pranks.
