-you considered hooking up with your boyfriend/girlfried to be part of the 'shabbos mitzvah'
-for girls- you'd do anything for a ride
-you can't remember which was simchas torah and which was shavuos- weren't they both all night parties?
-you'd make a shabbos party during your open house - everyone would stumble out of bed, with hangovers, but of course you'd make kiddush and motzi

1. 5 high schools in 3 years!?!?? 2. Some girl, from some pay phone in Bruriah/Central/Shulamith was beeping you all day
3. During your Shannah Bet you got to see the kids a year ahead of you finally come to Israel for the year
4. You always knew the "guy" who the ultimate cell phone/beeper plan for you and your closest friends
5. You or someone you"were boys"with got thrown out of the Days Inn in Miami in January and moved into the dump accross the street

9. In your car you could find Notorious B.I.G, Alice in Chains and Miami Boys Choir
10. Oh and that car, its your moms

12. Like some kind of sick twist of fate, the coolest of your older brothers friends always came back from Israel keeping Shabbos, kosher and even wears a hat!!! And he won't make bongs for you like he used to!!!!!!!
13. You swore the above mentioned would never happen to you but it did.

From Suzanne Seligot:

Although you could easily converse in Yeshivishah shpruch, you preferred to greet everyone with "Waaass Up?"

During your freshman year at Queens College you had 5 beepers and were known as "Left Eye Chaim"

Despite the fact that you dropped acid, you refused to eat tic-tacs as you heard they put a treif derivative in them

If you were a girl "punk Yeshivah high school" type, there were rumors you had an abortion

You are sort of hazy about your whole year in Israel. You remember the plane ride there but everything from Yom Kippur to Pesach is a blur.

You were a member in good standing of Hatzallah/EMS

From Momoney555@yahoo.com:

1.a. Early 90's garb- Hilfiger shirt, Levi's, Doc Martens.

b. Late 90's garb- cargo cords, Gap shirt, slipons.

c. Varsity Jacket (unless you had already gave it to your girlfriend) complemented the outfit.

2. Speaking of varsity jackets, begged your parents to buy one. The JEC one contained/ contains 15% unknown fibers(true).

3. Your school was known by initials, MTA, TABC, etc.

4. In the summer you went to one of these camps, Morasha, Moshava, Lavi, Raleigh (r.i.p), Hillel, Mesorah.

5. If your parents were not rich enough to go away for Pesach, you slaved away as a waiter or busboy for rich families at some shlock hotel like Oppenheimer's.

6. You looked down at your peers who came back from their year in Israel, swearing you'd never "flip out" like them, of course a year later you did, then "flipped back".

7. "Getting play" was top priority, in HAFTR it was called "punting" until the girls caught on (true).

8. You joined the debate or college bowl team as an excuse to get out of class and stare at girls.

9. You spent hours each night on AOL.

10. Study habits and working hard were nonexistent, instead you cheated and did everything the minute before. This hurt you later in life in college ( the former) and at work (the latter).
