High School Reunions

High school reunions have a lot of potential for drama. Some attend simply because they want to catch up with old friends and revisit the past. But others are more interested in showing off, settling old scores, or comparing their lives to everyone else’s. The former geeks are hoping that they’re more successful than the former jocks, the former jocks are hoping that the former prom queen is still single, and everyone wants to know who got pregnant, who got rich, and who got fat.

Mason recently attended his 10 year high school reunion. Many high schools throw parties where you can meet up with your old classmates years after you graduated. Find out if Mason found that prom queen or found that everyone else was more successful than him.

Vocabulary

catch up = to talk about things that have happened

showing off = brag; display one's wealth or beauty

Settling old scores = get even with someone; get revenge

geeks = a nerd, a dork; an odd person with uncool obsessions

Jet Lag

Over the last 100 years, new technology has made it faster, easier, and far more common for people to travel internationally. But one challenge that technology still hasn’t overcome is jet lag.

Most people experience jet lag when they travel long distances and cross into a different timezone. Being jet lagged is basically like having the clock inside your body set to the wrong time. Symptoms usually include fatigue, trouble sleeping, and feeling generally out of sync.

Jet lag can put a damper on a fun trip, but some people find creative ways to deal with it. If you can’t sleep and you’re in a cool new city, you might as well go out and party, right?

Vocabulary

timezone = the local time in a region of the world

out of sync = disoriented, troubled

put a damper on = make something less fun

deal with = cove with, undergo, bear
