5 years ago.. dangit, that's math.. hmm.. I was 17 yrs old (same as Melissa!).
I was a junior in my new high school - the one that I begged my mom to let me go to because all my friends were there. I had been with my boyfriend for 2 years (and had another 2 years to go!) and probably cut more classes than I attended.. bad girl. I had also been working at Ross as a sales clerk for a year and was pretty much doing assistant manager work for a sales clerk's pay.
