[Gooch]

I went to Jr High with Asdru from Ozomatli. Very sweet guy. He and his girlfriend beat out my boyfriend and I for cutest couple. Then they broke up the day after the yearbook picture was taken....still haven't forgiven him for that...

[*Annie*]

Hahahaha... that's a cute story. You should go to the show and somehow get revenge on him.

[obiwankobe]

I got most likely to succeed, they jacked that one up didn't they!

[Gooch]

Hahahaha... that's a cute story. You should go to the show and somehow get revenge on him.

I tried, but he moves around too much during the show....

[Gooch]

I got most likely to succeed, they jacked that one up didn't they!

Ah Tom....you're a success in our eyes...right gals?

[*Annie*]

I think you're succesful... (most of the time).

In middle school, I received the "Zygomaticus Major Award. For your ability to always make others smile."

In high school, I never liked the kids that competed for 'best dressed,' 'best couple,' or most 'likely to...' I made sure I wasn't friends with any of them.

[Gooch]

My teddy bear won "best dressed" in the teddy bear contest for, I think, 4 years in a row.
I was the black sheep of the cheerleading squad, so I never had to worry about winning anything or being on any court. Black Sheeps Unite!!!!

[obiwankobe]

I didn't really compete, I was like the only white kid in school and my dad was a teacher there

[*Annie*]

hahahahahaha

[gidgetgoestohell]

My high school bf and I were actually voted Class Couple....but the problem was...he was a Senior and I was a Junior....it was f'ng voter nullification, I tells ya.....I was ROBBED....
