Reunions

I always avoid reunions, for fear of the required, repeated 'small talk' and awkward moments of silence that inevitably occur... and the odd moments when you realize you're still, really, the same awkward high schooler deep down that you always were. Every once in a while though, it's somewhat comforting to see a familiar face, remind yourself that life is still pretty interesting for you, and remember too why you moved away in the first place. Not really to get away from it all, but to find a source for renewal within. And in a way, it's a little bit inspiring to keep going. If only to allow you a good story to tell later on.
Why do we find it all so fascinating though, that we're interested in making three tv shows about it, including one that's not even a reality show? Go f igure.
