In my yearbook I decided to make comments about people so I would remember what they were like in the future. I suppose it is the future and now that I'm reading them I wonder how I even had friends. Some of the nicer comments were "ugly", "weird", and "snob." I've got some "barfs", "ewwws," and "grosses" thrown in for good measure.
And these are apparently the worst insults my 11 year old brain could come up with:
That's right. Barf choke and snob attack. Take that elementary school peers!!!!! Sorry Ben Rieger I don't even remember you but apparently you made me want to barf and then choke on it.
And now for my D.A.R.E. workbook:
Here's my proposed response to someone offering me alcohol, "No thanks. I don't drink beer. I want to stay healthy and smart. Not like you." I'll be sure to whip that one out the next time some guy offers to buy me a drink. Good job 11 year old self.
This is my proposed response to someone offering me weed, "I don't want brown lungs so no thank you."
I think a simple "No thank you" would suffice.
I think a simple "No thank you" would suffice.
I'm not sure how seriously I took this D.A.R.E stuff since my proposed license plate in the workbook was I CUP. Say it out loud. I see you pee. I was 11 and it was hilarious.
Then we had to give each other compliments. Here are why my classmates chose to write about me:
1. I have very good eyes
2. I very nice (I guess this 5th grade friend didn't know about verbs yet)
3. I had a very good hair band. I wonder which one I was wearing that day.

These are all awesome and too funny! I cringed when I found my old middle school yearbook - not at my picture but at all the stuff I wrote by people's pictures. My mother's yearbooks are all sweet and proper. The only thing that it says above the heads is "Married" or "Divorced" I guess she was reminding herself at the reunions or something? The D.A.R.E. book is classic!
I'm so happy I found your blog!
Haha I totally remember DARE! A kid in my class was bet $5 to grab the gun out the the cop's holster. THAT did not go well. But I sure wish I had my DARE notebook to remind me of the good times!

"I don't want brown lungs" . . . what a lovely mental image, haha!
Some of my elementary yearbooks have pictures X'd out if I didn't like them and circled if they were my friend. Nice.
that is tooo funny! We never had DARE, but I distinctly remember swearing up and down that I would NEVER drink more than 2 drinks in one night...oopsies.
I'm glad other people wrote notes to themselves in their yearbooks. It makes me feel much better.
Oh my gosh this is the funniest post ever. I'm going to laugh at this all day. Then maybe choke on some barf. I like that you were snarky and sassy even at 11.
