[katinmn]

66. 1975 here, too.

Got my invite for the 30th reunion this summer. :-\

[demnan]

84. I'm another one for 1975

1957 was the largest year for births in the baby boom generation. We were like the youngest kids in our big families.

Here's to all the latter boomers! :hi:

A vintage year.

[MsConduct]

58. Another Class of 67er. We were still somewhat innocent then. n/t

[VOX]

54. Another '66-er here -- we're still kicking, if not high!

University High School, West L.A. :yourock:

[Texasgal]

3. 1985

What can I say....I'm old...

Prom song? Glory days- Bruce Springsteen!

[DBoon]

10. 1974

prom song - Stairway to Heaven

Nixon had just ended the draft (hooray)

Big music thing was "glitter rock", Bowie, Lou Reed ("walk on the wild side"), Mott the Hoople, New York Dolls, etc.

Encountered my first bong. Used zig-zagz prior to that moment.

[yellowdogintexas]

12. our school used Stairway to Paradise, 1964 prom

our prom was Moonlight and Roses

[hyphenate]

42. '74 for me, too

We had a couple of interesting choices for songs.

"In My Life" by the Beatles
"Hands of Time" from Brian's Song (Michel le Grand)

I don't remember a lot about it, though. I just remember when we threw our hats up in the air, I never recovered it. :(

I also remember one of my closest relatives (my aunt) showing up as tipsy as could be--what an embarassment that was!

Relatively small graduating class--181, I think it was. I haven't been to any reunions. There weren't too many people that I really cared for that much during that time--I was busy with a lot of outside things at the time, instead. It was also the last graduating class of all girls from "Girls Latin School." The next class had boys, and they were also changing the name of the school to Boston Latin Academy.

[Maine-ah]

59. he he

I was born in '74. I graduated in '93 :hippie:

[maveric]

A great year to be a grad. The legal drinking age was lowered to 18 in 73 for MA and NH.

Salem High School, Salem NH 1974

[Briarius]

8. 99 here

can't believe it's been 5years already...

[Droopy]

9. Miamisburg Senior High- Class of 1991

Bush the Elder was prez. The Persian Gulf war happened during my senior year and "hell no" I wasn't going to let them draft me- lol. Nirvana and the Seattle sound was the next big thing on the radio. I started to go insane and it would be 13 years before that was resolved. I'm 32 now and I do not wish to go back into the past. If I had the choice I'd stay the same age as I am now forever.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

Prom theme was "Age of Aquarius".

[proud2BlibKansan]

[CO Liberal]

50. Our Senior Prom Theme Was "Love Story"

80. I knew you'd ask that

Actually, who spent more at the beauty parlor that day?

[CO Liberal]

87. She Did

You'll notice in teh picture she had perfectly straight hair. She had her hair done that afternoon and about an hour before I picked her up, the curls started falling out, So she washed her hair again and went with straight hair.

[proud2BlibKansan]

88. I ironed my hair back then

to get that perfect straight look

Older than all of you. We had a fantastic reunion party Labor Day weekend though. Some people even remembered me.

[timtom]

51. Sorry to steal your thunder, gmm, but.....

Judging from all the posts, seems as how I"M the oldest dog in this pack. Oh, yeah! I knew Elvis. President Kennedy? Why him and me, we used to....All right. So I'm padding my memories a little. But still...

There are alot of old farts here! hehehe.. I'm jealous! No seriously, I always felt that I was born too late. I wish I had been a teenager in the 60s. There were many significant events, (political and non political) that happened in our country when I was very little or wasn't even born.. wish I had been older then to be able to participate. sigh...

I graduated in 1983.

69. And I'll bet you can't wait, eh, bud?

One of the happiest days of my life was when I graduated from high school and got away from all those white-trash scumfucks I'd been stuck with for the past three years.

[skygazer]

34. High school dropout here

I was supposed to graduate in '79. Dropped out halfway through my senior year. I didn't want to - I'd left home at 15 and worked and went to school. But by my senior year, I was sick of hitchhiking back and forth and work seemed a lot more real and necessary to me than school. Work paid the bills. Besides, I was failing my history class because I couldn't keep up with the homework since I worked nights and I couldn't graduate without that credit anyway. :shrug:

[Menshevik]

[kerry-is-my-prez]

55. 1973 - Stairway to heaven was our theme son. My date and I got TOO drunk

to even dance or even talk to anybody else. My prom dress dropped into the toilet so the bottom of it was all wet.

At least my date was a good friend so we could laugh about it all...

[qnr]

56. Never graduated (since there wasn't a GED option)

Dropped out after 3 months and hitchhiked across the country.

Edit: Think it would have been '74 if I'd gone, but never kept track.

[Der Blaue Engel]

57. 1984

How prophetic. :scared:

[yardwork]

60. 1978

Carter was president. Inflation and high gas prices were our biggest problems. The Iranians hadn't taken anybody hostage yet. Nobody thought that Ronald Reagan would ever get elected president (Who? That actor?)
