Here is a shot of Naperville North, Class of 1990
Few friends
Then, upon my return, I began to read old journals. So great to have everything recorded!
Here is my latest Facebook post:
If we went to high school together, i have a journal entry on you. :)
Emily Giffin test me...
Tracy Cordeiro Awesome...I can only imagine how boring my entry must have been..
Dawn Miller ha! me too! Come on, we didn't ever talk in highschool. I can't be in there, unless it's NOT GOOD! :)
Emily Giffin Tracy! Are you aware you were playing UNO in the small cateteria on Tues Nov 14th?? --the same day that Sean Drendel cheated off me on an Advanced Biology test, I made brownies for Mark Offtedal because he had drawn me a picture for Kevin Garnett's end of the season card, Candace fed Todd Cheetos in study hall, Jon Carlisle wrote a letter to the editor (me) and Nikki Adams, Caroline Corpuz and I talked about "boners" (I know, I know) in PE.
Christopher Drucker Were we in Calc together?
Amy Bunce Reilly Any from Elementary? You were always writing!!
Emily Giffin No, we were not, Chris. We were in study hall together in 10th grade, though. And you gave me a note in the 11th grade that I still have.
Emily Giffin we most certainly did talk, fraley!
Matthew Sharp not on me Emily LOL
Dawn Miller This is so fascinating! so did you find a post on me, or can you not put it out there on fb to see? Hee hee

Kerri Mackowiak Fronczak Think I'm in there? I can pretty much guess what it would have been about!
Dawn Miller share what it'd be about Kerri!!! I want to know!
Emily Giffin yeah, kerri. do tell. :)
Emily Giffin amy i have tons of entries about you from 1983. That is the year i started keeping my diary!!!
Marc Schoone As long as you didn't continue in college!
Emily Giffin oh, marc. i wrote about your toes in the lockerroom! lots of stuff on you.
Marc Schoone I just had my last meeting with the psychiatrist, I will put him back on my schedule!
Ali Katsoulis Bilardello Uh oh
Emily Giffin you're most welcome.
Emily Giffin ali, i had forgotten about you and jim konrad. can't picture the two of you engaging in PDA but apparently you had an occasional lapse.
Emily Giffin Matt Sharp--here is what you wrote in my yearbook:
Emily! Hey kid! What's up? Good luck in college and hopefully i'll be reading your column in the Trib someday. I know it's gonna happen. Have a good summer. Come visit me.
See ya,
Matt Shar...
Christine Pombrekas Bainbridge Emily, I might pay to read your entries about the Doug/Julie/me love triangle.
Emily Giffin "Listen closely to the song Borderline sometime. I think you'll see that it fits my situation well." Who wrote that?? LOL!
Christine Pombrekas Bainbridge I actually remember sitting on your bed, reading "Our Bodies, Ourselves" aloud and perhaps we wrote in your diary? And then we called Doug. Boy, even back then, I was referencing song lyrics and how they related to my emotions. HA!
Kelly Jackson Ussery What a great observer you were! Always a writer in the making. Now, I'm wondering...did I make it in anywhere?
Kerri Mackowiak Fronczak Why Dennis of course! :P I can't believe you have such detail in there. That's FANTASTIC!
Melissa Gregory-Reifschneider Emily, did we have gym class together??? I don't think I was your favorite person in HS!!! Sorry, my life at home was messed up! I could give you enough material for another 5 books!!! LOL!!!
Julie Lawrence I'm curious if I am in there, too, Kelly!
Melissa Gregory-Reifschneider Julie, you are still so adorable!
Susan McNally Grudis Is there an entry about receiving fish? Yeah, sorry about that. Totally my idea but believe me when I tell you my intentions were good. I think my exact words were "Hey, get her a couple of gold fish and call them Romeo and Juliet. That'd be cute!" I should have known big hearted Mike would go out and get you a massive aquarium.
Donny Faulhaber ok give it to me....this is going to hurt.
Mike De Bord Hey Emily. I missed the reunion this past weekend but I think we were in Science or something like that together. Yes I am testing you as you mentioned earlier. Ok as my wrestling buddy Faulhaber said above..give it to me because this might hurt also.
Emily Giffin okay--well, well. okay. yes, lissa, we had our issues in gym class but worked it out... as for you donny, you might want to consult lissa for specifics from her journal. lol. :)
Emily Giffin donny, you were getting talked up at the reunion among the ladies. your whole fire fighter thing works for you. right, lissa?
Emily Giffin susie--those fish were ALL mike's fault. he had ZERO judgment around that stuff. how about when he took kelli phillips ring shopping for me?? seriously? pretty funny when he asked why i wasn't wearing it the other night, though!
Emily Giffin although I adore kelli... :)
Emily Giffin julie IS adorable. And yes, Kerri, Dennis Chang and you debut on the same page in volume 5. good call.
Elise Schattke Wilson I'm scared to ask, but it is too intriguing. I'm enjoying this thread though. I (sadly) missed the reunion, but from the pictures, we've got some great looking "almost 40's" in our midst!
Emily Giffin mike debord, your resting heart rate was the lowest in gym class. congrats!
Jennifer Vierling Do I want to know?
Mike De Bord That is so hilarious. Thanks Emily. Must have been during wrestling season when I was in shape. Amazing you can remember of this.
Todd Furstenau this is seriously and easily the funniest thread come out of the reunion.
Donny F being a firefighter almost did it for me too. of course i was disappointed he wasn't sporting a mohawk. that would have done it.
Emily Giffin jenny pon, you stole my journal and read it in geometry. so you don't need an update. nice work, by the way, organizing this whole thing. you're the best. now get crankin on 25, please.
Emily Giffin todd--no comment on the cheetos??? how about this one--your gf (the one you fed cheetos, NOT kelli) had a t-shirt that said, "kiss me now before there is a line."
Emily Giffin kelli had a line. she didn't need the shirt. :)
Jennifer Vierling Em- I so don't remember all that! But, you were always right! And, I think it was in pre-calc that I stole it :). Gororski??? Still can't remember anything from it!
Yes, thinking about 25th. Thx!!!!
Emily Giffin yes, pre-calc.
Stephen Behling Alright. I can't resist...Anything about me? Even though we talked more at the reunion than in HS
Jennifer Vierling If I "stole" it, it was just to be inspired by your wonderful writing. I always believed you were awesome!!!
Todd Furstenau steve - emily probably has all the stats down to the detail about how many rushing yards were gained against wheaton north running through your gap. and kevin's average yard per carry on 31 ver-bucks. trust me. its crazy. she'll also break it down to the entire 89 season
Penny Larson Graham Now I'm curious. If it's horrible, don't tell me. :)
Emily Giffin Behling--you drew the football T-shirts that the team wore. the first one was a husky dog on top of a pile of bones. the second was the husky sitting on a throne with all the mascots bowing in a semi-circle around it. BAM! ... you also had a nice game against York on sr day. -- #66!!
Emily Giffin Penny, you had a little fender bender before one of our soccer games. :)
Emily Giffin i'm looking for entry....
Stephen Behling Nice! I did have a good game against York! :) You're awesome
Emily Giffin todd--1511 yards.... still can picture the fursty, drendel, garnett korosec diamond backfield... ahh a thing of beauty.
Emily Giffin behling lead blocker on that. he pulled on that play.
Emily Giffin and todd: wheaton north, 28-14. you totally showed up that kinney kid. 9 for 14 passes for 179 yds and 2 tds. Bart Patterson with a nice interception. Derek VanOrden scored on a one yard run. my boyfriend! woot!
Emily Giffin get that weak sh*t outta here.
Emily Giffin although you did open that game with 3 incomplete passes.
Mike Pentecost Wow Susie. Thanks for bringing that up. I remember such special times with you, even in emily's house. You've always been my favorite starlette!
John Petersen I sense another best-selling book in production . . .
Katherine Black Strickland Do u still journal?? Can u help me fill in the gaps of the last six years?? I'm impressed and scared all at the same time at your memory!!!!!! Wow!!!
Michelle ❁ Dillon Interesting... ;)
Emily Giffin michelle!!! you were missed!!! ... also, IMO, you were the prettiest girl in our class. still are although tricia mckenzie gave and gives you a run for your money! :) ... (And Katherine, yes, I still journal so watch OUT. i might go drive by your house NOW!!)
Emily Giffin mike p: you are an ass. and i mean that in the most nostalgic way possible. xoxo
Kathy Keck Urbanowski Emily, I have to say I'm very impressed with all of this. No wonder you are a writer! The dumbest thing that I said on Friday night at two-nine was to Todd Furstenau...I told him that I don't remember him playing football in high school. Hello! Meredith Skvarla couldn't believe that I said that. I'll just blame it on the alcohol and my bad memory. Sorry again Todd! :)
Todd Furstenau all good kathy. by far the best laugh i had all weekend
Melissa Schebo Kessler WOW! What a memory! I'm also curious???? I'm not a writer but I still have every note that I passed in junior high and high school. Sorry I missed the reunion, hopefully I can make the 25th!
Todd Furstenau told you steve. it's like a circus side show. ask her what day you lost your virginity, where it happened and to whom. she probably has that in her journal too. emily freakin gRiffin ;)
Emily Giffin well todd, something tells me that the finer points of kathy's badminton prowess may have escaped you as well. so you're even. how many of her badminton meets did you attend, by the way? i don't recall you cheering our team on? Congrats to Rene mousavi for making it all the way to sectionals! woo!
Emily Giffin who you callin a circus side show, todd? you're just bent that i remembered the three incomplete passes from wheaton north game. watch it or we can start talking volleyball on 11/9 next...
Emily Giffin kelly, weren't you a writing center tutor with me???
Emily Giffin melissa--why did you break up with kevin in the 7th grade after, like, 15 minutes? :)
Nicole Adams Seibold Hehe...loving all the memories! Sorry I missed the reunion looks and sounds like a great time! Thanks for the laughs!! Hope all is well :)
Amit Banerjee This thread is great, ALMOST makes up for missing the reunion.
Melissa Schebo Kessler what can I say...it was 7th grade...there are some things I wish I could go back and do over...maybe date Kevin for like an hour instead of the 15 minutes....maybe I would have gotten a kiss if we were together longer:)
