    I LOVED my MAC lip gloss! I skipped class in 98 as well, however I was a pregnant college student that should have graduated already. Sigh...better late than never!

  3. I graduated in 1998.  I will assume I skipped class.  Though was fixated on getting a 4.0 that quarter so maybe not.

  5. I love that you spelled out your title. Nice touch.
    Ah, 1998. I graduated in '97. 1998 was a fab year of partying like a rock star on a roadie's budget.

  10. I got a 4.0 the semester I graduated.  That was not in 1998 :)

  16. That was pretty much the end of my scandalous life.  I guess I need to relive it every now and again.

  17. You're not old!  I guess it just goes to show that young people will do what they do, no matter what the year!

  29. You can't beat that shine, though :)  But it's killer in a moving vehicle with the window open!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Thank you!  And I'm glad to hear I wasn't the only one traipsing down that path!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Perhaps I need an anonymous blog...or a disclaimer at the top of the expanded stories.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I would welcome Cosmo's interest ;)

  38. Maybe for a night...I don't think I could handle much more than that!

  39. Yay!  If the novel writing doesn't take off, I could write a "How Not To Approach College" guide ;)
