Senior year, the teachers at Northwood got an inferiority complex about being out in the sticks between Shreveport and Blanchard, a sort of no man's land, and decided to make sure everyone knew we were from the big town by putting "Northwood Shreveport" on our class ring instead of "Northwood High."
We thought it was a fucktarded idea. We wanted a normal high school ring like all of the other classes.
It proved prophetic though, as that area is now part of Shreveport. The WalMart is a couple of blocks away from the school. When I graduated, there was hardly anything there except a Dairy Queen, a tiny butcher shop and grocery store that had awesome steaks, and a new bank branch office.
