In High School, Going Off Campus at Lunch

[dancilley]

You know how in high school, everyone who is "cool" gets their driver license and gets a car by the earliest time they can?

I have always wondered what all the upperclassmen did when they left school during lunch (at my school, the freshman and sophomores had to stay on campus).

If you were one of those "cool" kids...did your parents give you lunch money to spend at restaurants at lunch? Did they buy you your car? Did you have a job and then you spent your hard-earned money on lunch?

Did you do drugs, drink alcohol, or smoke weed?

Did you literally take out a girl to lunch and then made out with her, or more?

Do you have epic memories from lunchtime?

Or do you have none, like me, because you never had a car and never went off campus? Also, my parents never gave me allowance in high school, and I had a job all throughout high school, but I never wanted to spend my money on restaurant food, because it was expensive, and I hated working, so to spend my money on expensive food...I just couldn't do it. Also, I had zero confidence regarding dating girls in high school. I didn't even think that I could invite a girl out to lunch with me...the concept was not even in my mind. But now, I realize that I could have done that, and dated a virgin girl, and married her.

I went off campus during high school, my friend and I owned cars. It wasn't really a big deal though. I wouldn't say we were like "the cool kids." We just went and got McDonald's. My parents gave me a credit card and I could pay for any food with it. I do remember we usually barely got back to school in time lol. Other then that, there's not really much to say about it. There weren't any girls with us unfortunately.

I had a little car my dad bought for $400 and I paid him back. I worked and parked at the grocery store across the street. The KMart towed students who parked there the first week of class. I worked on the other side of the parking lot. I'd wait until after that first week and park on the further, grocery store end of the lot, but not too close to the store. There was a Burger King nearby. I never heard of anyone leaving campus at lunch time. I do not think it was allowed, but I am not sure. If I had tried, I doubt anyone would have seen me or said anything. It is possible I went to my car during lunch.

None of this resulted in my dating a girl in high school that I married.

If I had left campus, I would really have had to rush to get back to class.
