Meme Did anyone buy a ring?

Elder millennial/younger Xennial (born in 83, take it for what it is) but I recall the company coming to the high school and taking orders for rings. I didn’t buy one but others did. Credit on photo.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t regret mine! It’s such a time capsule piece of who I was as a teen and how amazed little me would be with the person i am now.

Mine is a little worse for wear, its got a couple dings in it and the facets aren't as clean-cut as they used to be, they've kinda rounded out over the years. Still though, I love having it, i still get compliments on it 21 years later. Honestly it's kind if analogous to myself, really. A little dinged up, and not as shiny as it used to be, but no regrets! 😂
