that's right, we're real grown-ups now. we go to cocktail parties, galas, soirees even. among us will be alumni who are activists, settling down, on the prowl, corporate hounds, family people, freelancers, travelers, etc., etc. and we're coming together to see who's who, how we've changed and to reminisce on the days that shaped our lives, the days of glory, of awkward teenage angst, or whatever else it might have been...

we'll gather "grown-up" style to sip cocktails and pop a few light hors d'oeuvres on the patio reserved just for such very swank high school alumni. it's an affair, an event, and we hope your busy calendar, blackberry, or treo has scheduled you in. you busy grown-up, you.

irvine stadium
7:00 pm (kick-off)

we're meeting up at irvine stadium the night before cocktails to watch the warriors overtake their opponents in homecoming football game glory. listen to the cheerleaders, "go, fight, win!;" watch the classes compete in half-time skits, see the homecoming court crown a queen, and stay to experience the quintessential post-game show replete with dancers and flags flanking marching band members' sides. yes, it will be a friday night like no other. at least, not since high school. we'll save spots on the bleachers. total high school style.
