Lola Diane's Story
School
AS A STUDENT AT PHOENIX UNION HIGH I WAS KNOWN AS DIANE ELLIS. MY ATTENTIONS MAINLY WERE GEARED TOWARDS ATHELETICS.. I WAS ON THE TENNIS TEAM FOR TWO WEEKS, MY CHOICE WAS TENNIS OR GYMNASTICS. PRACTICES WERE ON THE SAME DAY AT THE SAME TIME. I LOVED GYMNASTICS AND WAS DISAPPOINTED TO GIVE UP THE TENNIS TEAM . OTHERS ON THE VARSITY TEAM WITH ME WERE BARBARA ROLLIN (FUZZY) AND JOANNE IOLLA, ANNE, JEWEL HICKMAN, MS MCLAIN WAS GYMNASTICS COACH AT THE TIME,. IT WAS ALSO MY PRIVLEDGE TO BE A MEMBER OF THE GIRLS ATHELETIC ASSOCIATION AND THE AUDITORIUM CLUB.. MY FAVORITE CLASSES WERE ENGLISH, ECONOMICS AND ...Expand for more
HOME ECONOMICS. I LOVED BEING A PART OF PHOENIX UNION BUT OFTEN FELT DEJECTED OR OUT OF THE MAIN CIRCLE SINCE BECOMING A RESPONSIBLE, HAPPY ADULT, I REALIZE THAT IT WAS MY HOME LIFE AND NOT MY SCHOOL LIFE THAT GAVE ME SUCH NEGATIVE FEELINGS. THE THING I HAVE LEARNED FROM MY EARLIER LIFE IS THAT ADVERSITY CAN CREATE A STRONG HAPPY INDIVIDUAL IF YOU USE PAST EXPERIENCES TO GROW AND NOT LET THEM HINDER YOU IN THE NOW WORLD. WHEN I LOOK BACK,. I HAVE VERY FOND MEMORIES OF PHOENIX UNION AND THOSE FRIENDS AND STUDENTS WHO SUPPORTED ME AND HELPED ME TO GROW. I SINCERLY HOPE I AM REMEMBERED IN THE SAME WAY.!
