Mark's Story
Life
Hello to all.
After graduation from the wonders and blunders of John Swett High School in 1981, moving to Phoenix, AZ and obtaining a BS in Electronics Engineering, I moved to Sierra Vista AZ in 1984 and settled into a career as a communications engineer. I married the first person I met in Arizona (who was actually born in AZ) and we have 3 great kids. I'm finding it hard to beleive that it is over 25 years since the John Swett High school class of 1981 has graduated. Time has really flown by.
I've gotten to visit many countries around the world with my work, and have learned that all of us on this planet are pretty much much the same, we just look a little different and have different customs.
We all enjoy good, food, friends, and jokes. It's understanding where we all could use a little work.
The things that mean the most to me are my family and Making Great Food for Sunday Dinner. I've allways liked to build thin...Expand for more
gs and work with my hands, so I have allway's enjoyed cooking.
I still enjoy a good prank or two, just not on the scale of M80's in the toliet, Ringing the School Bells at will, or attempting an on Stage Graduation Baloon drop. I suppose Age is slowing me down, though I prefer not to admit it.
The kids keep me busy. Amazing how they can be so different, and yet all so wonderful.
Oh what would Ms. Kendall/Mr. Heick/Ms. Taska say if they knew that a good portion of my job is dependant on my ability to write and communicate. I suppose they allways knew, they just tolerated me and my rantings of the uselessness of English studies. Though I couldn't stand their classes, and barely managed to pass them, I have managed to become a decent writer. Still far more intrested in all things scientific. My greatest personal embaressment is still the fact that my SAT scores in English where higher than my Math and Science scores!!!!
