these are the times to remember 'cause they will not last forever

I stole this from Marielle's blog: 40 Signs You Went to the Prep

I'm going to bold all the ones that applied to me.

-----------------------------------------------
1. Brother Dom is the reason you came to Prep.
2. You kiss everyone hello. (or hug)
3. You roam around the school aimlessly.
4. Your locker is never on the same side as your classes.
5. You never do your homework at home.
6. You have six different lockers for all of your books.
7. You have made the mistake of getting mac and cheese too many times at lunch.
8. You have an assigned lunch table. (it started as the marching band table, and by senior year it turned into kristin's posse)
9. When you were a sophmore, you pointed out all the froshies and made fun of their huge bookbags, meanwhile that was you only a year ago.
10. You're always late for cor.
11. Practically every guy is on one team or another.
12. You are in The Right to Life Club but never go.
13. Girls have a crush on AT LEAST one senior. (I admit it, too)
14. Guys have a crush on any girl that kisses them hello.
15. Even if you don't have H period, you come in early. (but I had H period almost every day. It was rare when I didn't, but I was there anyway)
16. You've fallen down the stairs at least once. (or up the stairs!)
17. You want to take World War 2 because Mr. Hessel teaches it.
18. You hear lots of stories about what went on during the summer, half of which aren't true.
19. You have faked sick to go to the nurse just for the tea and crackers.
20. You would trade Channel One for getting out of school fifteen minutes earlier.
21. You get to lab early, so you can get first dibbs on lab coats, and don't have to wear one with writing on it.
22. Your locker always gets wrapped on your birthday ... even when you're not expecting it.
23. You say Happy Birthday to strangers with wrapped lockers. (or if they were holding flowers)
24. You notice the school doesn't use the air conditioning or heating even though both are there to make life easier. (YES! it'd be cold in the winter & hot in the summer)
25. You can make a ton of money walking around the lunchroom saying "Can I borrow a dollar?"
26. During the hour period, your teacher makes fun of the kids screaming in the hallways.
27. Teachers always give you more work when the end of the quarter is two days away.
28. When you come outside, every guy from Holy Cross is waiting for the girls out front -- no matter what time of day.
29. The only thing the cafeteria serves is chicken.
30. You hang out in the beanbag chair during your free. (campus ministries!)
31. You run when you see the deans.
32. You think Mr. Sugrue is the weirdest and coolest teacher there.
33. You've gotten detention for being a minute late because your teacher was in a bad mood.
34. You thought that square dancing was the stupidest thing ever in freshman year, but later realized how much fun you actually had in that class.
35. You've started to walk to a class on the west side after the five minute bell, and managed to get there on time.
36. You have eaten at Blue Bay, Applebees or Cherry Valley.
37. You started or witnessed a fight at 7-11.
38. You've ran to catch the Q88 Special to avoid taking two buses.
39. You complain about the food in the cafeteria all the time, but somehow you eat it anyway.
40. Somehow you end up at every event Prep has.
41. You laugh at all of Father Bill's jokes, no matter how corny.
42. You don't mind assemblies during cor, as long as you miss some of second period.
43. Girls find themselves dancing the sophomore dance at Sweet Sixteens when "This is How We Do It" comes on.
44. You make fun of freshmen walking into the wrong classroom, and yet still do it sometimes when you aren't thinking clearly.
