Ok, we admit it, my husband and I are reality tv junkies. I don't know what that says about us, but I describe it as a guilty pleasure that is purely, entertainment.
Our tastes go from the Bachelor, to Dog the Bounty Hunter, Jon and Kate plus 8, The Biggest Loser, Sober House, etc. I could go on and on. We have a date with the television every night of the week. Ron gets in his lazy boy, I get in mine, feet up and we are ready for our night.
Last night there was a new program on TV land, Class Reunion. Now this one brought me back, to memories of my high school days. I have changed since those days so many years ago, but for some reason you never forget how you felt when you were a teenager in highschool. For me, the memories are not great ones. I was overweight, had long straight hair, and wore the greenest of eye shadows. No dates, no prom, worked at a nursing home, had my circle of friends but went unnoticed by the boys. That period of my life my self confidence was low, to this day I still have a very hard time accepting a compliment.
I did attend everyone of my class reunions, my 10, 20, and can you believe it 30 year class reunions. It was not until my 30 year, which was 2 years ago, the I really felt confindent walking into that party.
I danced all night long with my loving husband, Ron, and still had the same best friend, Tomi sitting by my side.
So my reality is pretty darn great!

I was an excellent wallflower in high school, and it took me 30 years to get good self-esteem, so you're not alone!
