First it stars Anaheim's own Allyson Reed channeling Mr. Lovegren and even has her own version of his little theatre complete with Settee. Then all the kids coming together to just be themselves. This happy, fun portrayal of High School - IS MY HIGH SCHOOL experience. Well, maybe you need to throw in some broken hearts over crushes and unrequited love, a few bad experiences with Annie Greensprings wine and chatting through Biology - I wish I had actually listened. :) Some of my friends worried about being pregnant or gay or not able to reach their dreams - or their parents' dreams for them - but that would all be the back story. I just don't know how people got so crazy or just plain mean. Oh well - I will stop ranting. No one will read this but me so I am enjoying listening to myself talk. :) College Best part of attending Cal State Fullerton were the friends I made as a New Student Orientation Leader and as a Sigma Kappa. I have done more with the skills I developed as part of the organizations than what I actually studied. Okay - I take that back. I still think about the American Studies classes I had with John Ibson and Fred Lamster. They changed the way I look at American Culture and my life. I really enjoyed my year at California Baptist University. I learned so much from Dr. Marler in my History Classes. I was probably the only commuting student from Orange County and at least a year older than everyone else. I also had to promise not to Social Dance while attending - in the tail of the Disco era no less - but it was worth it. I liked the other students but I can't name one that I kept up with - that is sad to me. I hope to go back to school and get a Masters in Business or American Studies - when my oldest starts college in a few years. I would love to teach at the Community College level and teach practical information that people can use in the real work world. Someday...... Workplace I have worked worked in Sales and Client Services for the last 9 years at AMN Healthcare - they are in San Diego and I telecommute from Fort Collins CO. We place RN's across the United States for 13 weeks or more at a time. I love my co-workers and it is a great company to work for. I think back on the many jobs I have had since college and am amazed at how blessed I have been: Anaheim Chamber of Commerce - Political Affairs Specialist Representative for Assembywoman Doris Allen Corporate Facilitator for Manager Training at Bullock's Dept Stores Human Resources Director at Bullocks Wilshire and FHP Hospital Manager of Training at Focus on the Family Director of Human Resources for Union Rescue Mission in LA And probably my favorite job - Part time while I had little babies Call Center Sales Rep for Budget Rental Cars Don't laugh - it was fun - no stress - good money and great part time hours for a Mom with babies. I loved my co workers and had a blast renting cars to people. I will never be mean to anyone on the phone again - the American Public can be pretty cranky on the phone.
