I've recently graduated high school a couple months ago and alot of my friends have distanced themselves due to college and other reasons besides a select few. I often think of seeing people I was friends with in high school years from now and seeing where they'll be and what they have or haven't accomplished. I know alot of my slowlane friends and family scoff at the ideas and dreams I have of owning my own successful business, and it would be fulfilling to prove them wrong.

So my question(s) to you is: Have you been to a high school reunion?
And if so: Did you "show off" your accomplishments, or was it satisfying enough knowing that you've succeeded?

Please share your stories hopefully I can hear some good ones.
