lol yeah 2004 is when I graduated too

different world, last year before Facebook

trends? Baggier everything. No social media, is probably the biggest difference. No camera phones, no one expressed much interest in pictures, except for a handful of polaroids that got taken here and there

Kanye everywhere. The Jesus Walks Ye.
NOKIA phones and Cingular wireless
50 Cent and G Unit everywhere

my homie played Wanna Get To You Know (G-Unit) last night at a party, and it brought back those memories

going to movies with my boys/groups of girls, which probably isn't very common any more

no texting is probably another big one, I knew how to use it, and sent my Mom texts to tell her I wasn't coming home, but yeah, can remember sitting in the car with my homie for an hour smoking a blunt while he talked to his girl. Everyone called each other, all the time, instead of texting. And there was a very high scool script to it, that kind of mirrors the texting now

Where you at/where are you
who are you with?
what are you doing?
where are you going?

You wouldn't even really think of texting your boys. That would be weirdo shyt, I think, at the time. Stepping outside to call your Mom.

also, as an adult when you realize all those secret smoke spots were just posting in front of some families house and smoking weed, and just being obnoxious is pretty funny.
I started HS in 08 but I remember on the Nokias when you had to punch the number to get to the letter you wanted 😂😂😂 man what a joke

I'm Class of 2007. Was one of the youngest people in my class since I have a December bday.

I remember 2003-2004 which was my freshman year clearly. It is wild we're going on 20 years since then :damn:

But it was a much more simpler time. No social media. AIM was still in use. Used forums like SOHH :hamster: a couple years later..

I didn't even get a cell phone till 2005. Didn't get a smart phone till late 2009 in my junior year of college.
