Don't forget to tell us what you remember!

I remember one time in Mrs. Denaro's class, Neda Shojai and I got thrown out of the class for talking. The funny part was all that actually happened was Neda turned around and said she forgot her book and I told her to ask Mrs. Denaro if she would let her go get it. Next thing we know we're getting yelled at (LITTLE GIRLS) for talking and was asked to leave and given an assignment to write why it's wrong to talk in class when class begins. I remember writing in my assignment why teachers shouldn't just throw students out of class without finding out why they were talking especially if it was because another student didn't have their book and they were only advising to let the teacher know.

Throwing Crissy's (Malanga) shoe out the window in the cafeteria....sniffing chopped Smartie's in the cafeteria with a straw....thinking we were cool cruising in our Rockin' Regals (Christine Suriano and I had the same car)....making Tara Russo (class of 1992) laugh so hard she wet herself in the cafeteria....SJVA finally winning Island softball....Juliet's jeweled beret....Impee hosing down her mom's Jeep after a crazy night out (sorry Imp!)....trying to rip down the Kermit Ave. sign (I loved Kermit...still do!)....Carol & Christine will appreciate this "C'mon Mom!

I know who!!!....humming the theme to Jeopardy to Mrs. Dietz in her class....Elena in a long blonde wig for Theme Day....what were those shoes that Mr. Doran wore all the time?...so many memories so little time!!!

Mrs. Denaro telling us we were all "wet behind the ears" and that we didn't have enough sense to get when she was telling a joke. In senior year, she told us a story of this obese man who died and had to be removed from his apartment in a piano crate. Fran Malone and I thought this was one of those times...we both started to laugh out loud and realized we were the only ones. She screamed at us for a few minutes regarding our lack of compassion and then told us to GET OUT!!!!! Then there were the Chair Race Olympics in the cafeteria during those lame dances...Mrs. Calabria walking around with the rollers in her hair and no one telling her...Mr. Doran and the IBTC...the annoying clang of Mrs. Strongarone's bracelets at any given time...the drainpipe... Kerry E. and I stretching out the pig intestines to see how far they would go...Connie Burhart singeing her both her eyebrows off because she didn't use the goggles...Elena being Vanna White! for Theme Day...Whittle...how Shep used to make us do Jane Fonda but never do it herself...the Villa/Farrell exchange day when some Farrell idiot challenged Mrs. Denaro and she lectured him for the whole period on how stupid he was..Angela Siconolfi talking about living in Travis like it was a foreign country...the Gettysburg Yearbook Experience, the Rock Lobster and Mr. Shoop Do Wa...walking from the bus stop with Helene and having the naked man jump out from the bushes and then having to describe to SAM what he was "doing"...How safe we all felt at Driver's Ed with Mr. T. who had bad dandruff and couldn't even turn his head to look for other cars...God, there are just too many to remember!

Remember in either junior or senior year, Carol Gil leading the burping contests in the cafeteria! Having a surprise 80th birthday party for Sr. Salvatrice...she is so cute. How about our junior/senior ski trip when we had the fight with the girls from the Brooklyn Catholic School and having a sit-out in the middle of the hallway so they couldn't pass and we played the 'duck' game. Joanne Maffei's famous Saturday Night Live impressions of Dana Carvey doing girly man! And who could forget Mr. Doran's math classes. Our junior prom going to Emerald City and that old night club the Adam's Apple! And last but not least, the infamous trips to Midland Beach where we mainly took part in that contest???????!!!!!!

playing "pillow polo" in gym... never learning proper typing technique in typing class... having Skittle fights in the cafeteria with the sophomores when we were freshman... little Suzy from the cafeteria (who, not to make everyone feel old or anything, is now a freshman in high school)... Juliet, who lived across the street from school, being late for homeroom every day and blaming it on traffic... only learning how to say one thing well in Spanish: "¿puedo ir al baño, por favor?" cause Mrs. Calabria wouldn't let you go if you didn't ask in Spanish... Erutluc... driving to school in junior year and having to park around the block... Angela Wiley's chronic PMS that she used to get out of gym class practically every time... Ina Fricchione... "scarves worn as headbands are not permitted"... "Saaaave it!"... writing letters to "any soldier"... the tunnel... that teeny, tiny hallway on the top floor of the annex and the equally small, winding staircase that it led to... never wearing a gym uniform in gym... being so excited to finally get a "big" locker only to find out that I couldn't reach anything in the top of mine... "going with" someone being the biggest thing in the world... Crissy Malanga's imitations of Mrs. Downer... Crissy Malanga rolling on the floor under the pews in chapel... Kevin D'Man (that's a special one just for Jane Bono)...
