2. You're taking the ACT and someone's phone goes off.
5. You spend a weeks worth of lunch money in two days.
6. You get yelled at for going up the "DOWN ONLY" staircase, but you do it anyway because you're going to be late.
7. If you have ever been run over by Mr. Benberry RIP.
8. You have been hit by a door in the student services hallway.
9. Mr. Bell is your substitute and he spends the entire hour talking about how he can outrun you... the other 15 minutes are spent reading the newspaper.
10. You can use the fight in the math hallway as an excuse for being late to class.
11: If you ever wondered what going to East would be like. East Aurora Kid Hallway Swimming - See they ARE just like us :)
13. When at your own graduation, you have no idea who 45% of the people graduating are.
14. You get a yellow slip from student services and it says, "NOW!" on it.
15. The first time you saw the new police department on Indian Trail you thought, "Wow, that kind of looks like my school..."
16. They take away all the condiments on the last week of school so food fights are not so messy.
17. You're more excited to go to the East vs West game than prom. You might also remember this one time that wheaton kid almost got jumped after the game: West Aurora vs Wheaton North Buzzer Beater
19. You graduated right before they made everyone wear their ID around their neck... THANK GOD!
22. Hamburger day... need I say more?
23. After all these years you still wear your West Aurora T-shirts to bed because after all, WEST IS BEST :P

ReplyDeletehaha mr bell and i was so glad i didnt have to wear my id around my neck
ReplyDeleteI just remembered why I hated going here. suburban kids are weird
ReplyDeleteMr. Bell told my whole class that I didn't have any friends and I enjoy watching grass grow for fun....multiple times. I never said anything to him he just enjoyed picking on me....
ReplyDeleteGood thing I wasn't there past 07 I would have hated it
ReplyDeleteLove this! It's so true. I remember the food fight (my freshman year...so disgusting), and I can remember classmates frequently challenging Mr. Bell to a race. He never accepted. Nice to know that West hasn't changed much.
ReplyDeleteMan I remember going into the D wing hallways past the field house after they just build it to go use the bathroom in privacy thinking no one would be there in that section while classes were going on to find a bunch of people smoking weed in the bathroom asking men if I wanna hit it lol then during passing period find Mrs Zimmerman the Spanish teacher walking by saying it spells like weed over here lmao..an almost everyday occurencen i swear
ReplyDeleteHa...5, 6, 7, 9, and 17 though. And Mr. Bell substituting for band class....oh West.
ReplyDeleteOhh who could forget them fire ass chicken sandwiches everyone would get that we had or the dominos pizza at lunch and them bosco sticks fireahhh lol...everything else is true statements ^

ReplyDeleteThat's awesome...class of 1988.
ReplyDeleteLol Mr. Bell
ReplyDeleteWest was so much fun. But for me it wasn't Benberry, it was Mrs. Krieger.... ah, I'll never forget when she growled at one of my friends from her rascal scooter...
ReplyDeleteAnd who can forget "Coach" Bell... that fat lazy prick. I remember in gym class using the leg press, and having him come over and yell at me to do more weight. I pressed the full stack plus my buddy sat on the sled. I looked at him and kindly asked,"Think you can do better, fatty?" He never bothered me again...
I'm in the class of 2015, and next year we're supposed to have over 4400 students. The school is over populated, the food is crap, the only good department is the Music Department, and the security and cameras make the school more of a dictatorship. Yes Cameras, UNDER STAIRCASES!! Science Department can't teach,Step team is finally becoming integrated, the marching band is close to 300 musicians, and THEY TOOK AWAY THE CHIEF BLACKHAWK FROM ALL THINGS RELATED TO WEST!! Yup no more Blackhawk symbols, just a giant W that makes us look like Superman! There are a lot of good stuff about West, but there is also a lot of bad. Anyways... In the town of Aurora, East will always be East, West is West, but always, West is Best!!! :) GO BLACKHAWKS!!
ReplyDeleteOmg i love this!!!! Cant believe west has changed so much :/
ReplyDelete09!! Baby!! Lol any graduating class after that sounds funny even saying their graduating year. ��
ReplyDeletei was supposed to go to rosary for my high school, after freshman year i begged my mom to let me go to west because i sure as hell didnt belong at rosary. went there for the next 3 years and havent regretted one day since. because of this school i have an amazing boyfriend who i have been dating going on 2 years, i found my best friend, and discovered my amazing photography ability because of the best teacher, Ms.Martin, who was let go for the WORST reasons and anyone i feel bad for all of the future students that wont have her as a teacher.
