** UPDATE AT END 07.29.09 ** Life Hello Everyone! I haven't kept in touch with anyone from HS. I guess it would just be nice to see what everyone is up to these days, even if I cant remember half of you! LOL Ok so here is a very brief version of the past 15 years of my life: I have worked several decent jobs since HS, including running a high-end warehouse for 5.5 years and working as a Workers' Comp Collector for another 3.5 years.

I decided to major in Physics (because I am crazy) and because I just want to learn how things work! I am fascinated with science, math, the earth and weather systems and I want to eventually work as a research scientist in the field of Geophysics. So I decided I wanted to go to the University of Alaska Fairbanks because they have one of the best Physics programs in the country; I applied and was accepted (I had a 4.0 so I wasnt worried LOL). So, I took out student loans and this past August I packed my things and drove up here! I am now attending UAF and living on campus in the dorms and loving school!
