Vacations

Names (L to R): Jake Johnson, Joseph Van Lier, Nate Delizzotti, Campbell Burns

Hometown: Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia

First kiss:

Jake: Horrifying. Scary, scary

Joseph: Character building

Nate: Too much tongue 

Campbell: Exciting

What you'd write in each other's yearbooks:

Nate: Like a boss

Joseph: Respect, dignity, power

Jake: Thanks for the year, be all you can be.

2000's teen movie freeze frame epilogue:

Nate: It would probably be like, Nate…jail.

Joseph: Joey proved the haters wrong

Jake: Jake stumbled around for many years and then found the love of their lives. 

Campbell: Campbell went on to be a rock star.

Songs written in high school that you'd want to play now:

Campbell: Funnily enough, I first started posting songs on Tumblr. It was my first outlet. So it's kind of weird to being here all these years later because it felt like my own little world and I was like, "I'm pouring my heart out, but only two or three of my friends are going to see it." It felt safe because I didn't want to just go straight to YouTube. I wasn't ready for that. 

Nate: He wasn’t ready for the fame.

Jake: There’s a safe anonymity to Tumblr. 

Campbell: That's kind of how I met Jake because I'd post my songs and he would slide into my DMs, my inbox.

Jake: you slid into my DMs, Campbell.

Put one of your songs in a high school movie:

Joseph: I just immediately think of Looking for Alibrandi or The Breakfast Club.

Nate: Heathers. Maybe Mad Max Fury Road?

Jake: I like Heathers. Mine would be Sixteen Candles. And the whole world would be like Mad Max Fury Road or something.

Campbell: Probably "Midwest" as the song.

Jake: I like "Steady" for Sixteen Candles.

Tegan and Sara

Hometown: Calgary, Alberta, Canada

First kiss:

Sara: Gross and unmemorable

Tegan: It was like 8th grade, no offense to the guy but it was outside of a Dairy Queen and very gross and unmemorable. First kiss with a girl: life changing.

Yearbook quotes (Tegan): We didn't have yearbook quotes at our high school, it wasn’t a thing. We had dog tags made because it was the 90's and we were very influenced by Dazed and Confused. My dog tag said “mean people suck” and on the other side it said “different is good.” Sara's was probably like “I’m busy reading.”

When you think of a typical American high school experience:

Sara: Football is the main takeaway. In Canada we have football but it doesn’t have the same stature. It’s sort of like, you can play football or you can play hockey. But whenever I think about high school movies and television from America it’s always football and cheerleaders.

Tegan: I think Mean Girls meets Booksmart

Leith Ross

Hometown: Ottawa, Canada

Truth or Dare first kiss: Terrifying

Real first kiss: Magical

Hometown school traditions: Everyone meets in the McDonald’s parking lot and then there’s a list of dares that the prom committee has put together and you film yourself doing the dares and send it to them and it’s a fundraiser. I think the winning team gets something. I don’t remember.

2000's teen movie freeze frame epilogue: It would be a record scratch then the screen gets frozen. It would say: Leith Ross did turn out to be a homosexual, currently lives as a homosexual in a small town in the middle of nowhere in Canada.

Queer high school experience: There wasn’t much of one. I wasn’t out yet. I came out to two people in grade 11. And then about 6 months later I had the classic backslide into pretending that never happened. Closeted in high school then went to college in the big city (Toronto) and that’s where I was gay. For the first year of my college experience that’s where I was like, “all right, it’s time.”

Boldest teen fashion choice: All yellow outfits

Lunch table in high school: We called it the alcove. It was this random little hole that was created by the entrance to the auditorium and we would go hide there.

What you'd write in your own high school yearbook: Deep breaths. Calm down. Stop it. But also be yourself. But also it’s not so big of a deal.

Last Dinosaurs

Names (L to R): Sean Caskey, Michael Sloane, Lachlan Caskey

Hometown: Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

First kiss:

Sean: Dizzy

Michael: After school

Lachlan: Revelational. It revealed things.

Favorite teachers at school:

Sean: Mr. Robertson. He was cool but I’ll say he used to trip over a lot in class all the time. And I just found that really funny. And I was one of the best students in the class so I didn’t get in trouble.

Michael: In primary school, Miss Ryan. She was no bullshit and she was really nice.

Lachlan: Mr. McMahon, English teacher but really passionate. He left an impression on all of us.

Put one of your songs in a high school movie: "Eleven" in Dunston Checks In when he’s just going crazy and destroys the hotel.

What you'd write on each other's jerseys:

Lachlan: Arsehole

Michael: Draw a dick

Juliana Madrid

Hometown: Dallas, TX

First kiss: Horrible

Teenage crush: There was this boy named Matthew that was this cool skater kid and he was my older friend’s little brother. I was just in love with him at 14 or something. He was the first guy I held hands with. He was very cute.

Boldest teenage fashion choice: I once wore heels to school because I was trying really hard to fit in because I felt so out of place. I did it once and never again, that was probably the weirdest thing. 

Hometown school traditions: After prom or any social event we would always go to our local What-A-Burger and just hang out afterwards.

Go-to I’m feeling a lot of feelings song in high school: Anything from Speak Now by Taylor Swift and any Beatles song on the White Album

2000's teen movie freeze frame epilogue: Juliana went on to follow her boyfriend to college and then regret it horribly and then drop out of college and then break up with him and then do music full time.

What you'd write in your own high school yearbook: You’re doing fine and things will work out. Just be happy and make sure to stay grateful for where you’re at.

Suki Waterhouse

Hometown: Hammersmith, London, UK

First kiss: Strange

Tips for school photo day: Clean teeth, fresh outfit, experiment with the hair

High school Suki vs. today Suki: High school Suki was a lot more athletic and stretched a lot more than Suki now. Less acne now, and a slightly sunnier disposition.

High school fashion staple: Mary Janes

High school fashion statement: How dangerously low you can get your school skirt or trousers

When you think of a typical American high school experience: I think of Bring It On or something like that. Dancing cheerleaders. All that stuff. It seems so alien. I think of prom. We don’t have prom in England. It all seems like a magical fairy world. Everyone’s in love.

High school superlative: Definitely class clown

Put one of your songs in a high school movie: D.E.B.S. with either "Blessed" or "Good Looking." It’s my favorite movie of all time. I watched it the other night. That would be the best thing.
