This isn't my favorite... but it was something that I remembered today that made me laugh....

In High School, I dated a guy in November and we broke up in December. I broke up with him and he was sad at first, then grew bitter. So, in the new semester when we ended up in the same math class, we were very competitive. Who would get the better grade or do better during testing? It was the teacher's policy to announce the test scores for anyone over 90%. Every test, he and I waited to see who would be on top..... LOL. And yes, I was ahead EVERY test. He'd get a 93 and I'd end up getting 96 or something like that... The competition was so bad that the teacher could sense it, too. LOL. I thought it was funny because he was a such a big talker.

Poor thing... and he worked on the Year Book Commitee and put a dedication in the year book that he couldn't take back after we broke up. How embarrassing for him! But I just laughed about it. I suppose it would have been sweet if we hadn't broken up.... I remember what it said too... "I will love you until my heart refuses to beat." Needless to say, I did not feel the same. After all, we only dated for about a month... Wha? He wasn't a bad guy, just too much EGO which usually means insecurities. Oh well.

Playing war games with my cousins, running through the country. Riding my bicycle for hours a day. Going to the swimming pool every day during the summer.

LOL, if only I still enjoyed those things. I'd be totally buff :)

My favorite memories are going to art shows with my mom, my dad trying to help me with bowling and softball, my grandpa letting me drive his tractor and my grandmother and her garden and cooking - I still make a lot of her recipes now. I did have fun with my cousins.
